Job searching.

Sep 16, 2005 12:42

Last week I did a few interviews with some small businesses looking for employees. Needless to say: I didn't have enough education or certian skills for them and was turned down... It also might have been something about the way I speak. I got quite a few funny looks whenever I said something........The only real career I had going for me in ( Read more... )

Actually, it might be easier to get into my military. I think I should be able to reccomend you for an oficer rank, stating that you're my brother. Tell me if you'd like that.

thegermanone September 17 2005, 06:23:47 UTC

That would be great, actually. Danke!

*grins* I could easily pass off as a brother- I would have to go by a different name then, maybe? Two "Maes Hughes" might be a bit off.. I've always liked the name "Ferdinand" for some odd reason..

::snickers:: Stupid foreigner.. you thought someone would actually hire you?

thegermanone September 17 2005, 23:49:56 UTC

I had a better chance then you ever would. Who would hire an idiot that wears a suit of armor 24/7?

evilalphonse September 18 2005, 06:05:36 UTC

Call me an idiot again and there'll be no reason for you to get a job anymore.

thegermanone September 18 2005, 07:42:43 UTC

Hrm. Then at least give me the honest explanation for the suit. It looks ridiculous.

Told you your accent was funny.

thegermanone September 17 2005, 23:47:18 UTC

It's not "funny". They were just too slow to keep up with what I was saying. Much like yourself. *heh*

betterthaned September 18 2005, 01:24:54 UTC

It is too funny and I am not slow! You're the one who's slow if you can't talk properly!

thegermanone September 18 2005, 03:55:45 UTC

Not funny.

And of course I can talk properly. I can speak German, can't I? Schildkröten sind langsam und schpasich~~

Ah, I am terribly sorry you are finding it so difficult to get work here.. I am as well, actually. I suppose I should go ahead and apply for that job at the library.. it is difficult trying to get a job at my age, however. Good luck with the military, I am sure they will have a place for you.

thegermanone September 17 2005, 23:56:08 UTC

It's alright now. One of myselves is setting me up in the military for now~ *grins*

The library sounds like a good spot for you. What with all those books and research that you're always working on.. Viel glück!

::smiles:: Good, I am sure you will do well there, until we get back of course.

Ja, I spend enough time there already. ::laughs a bit:: Danke!
