Jumping Through Hoops


Yesterday was the day I was scheduled to call Erin back (at Best Buy), to see what the GM (General Manager) said about hiring me. So I called, and he wasn't there. So today, I called, and this chick answered the phone, and put me on hold to see if he was in the store. After being on hold for about 5 minutes, it starts ringing, so I let it ring like 60 times, no answer. So, I drive ALL the way down to the store (which is about 25 minutes or so away from my house). I get there, and as soon as I walk in, I see Erin. I go up to him, and kindly ask him how things are going with the hiring process. He tells me that the General Manager STILL hasn't gotten back yet, and that they should be back tomorrow morning. So, I told him I would call him around 3PM tomorrow to check it. I'm starting to wonder how all these other people have jobs at Best Buy. It does not make any sense whatsoever. While I was out, I stopped by South Alabama, and bought a parking sticker for my car (so I don't get any tickets for parking at South), and that stupid sticker cost $8. Rip-off.

Now I just have to wait, and see how many more hoops I have to jump through to get this job at Best Buy.
