My parents talked to the head boss at Fry's food store, and the boss says that as long as I can communicate with the people (co-workers, customers, etc.), she is willing to give me a try. (NOT that I have to rely on my parents all the time)

I might finally have a job. (I'm 16)

great news, evil walks - congrats!

Congratulations! And, good luck. You'll find that in a food store, people are already there to buy what they want. Therefore, most communication is just basic pleasantry. They aren't usually depending on you to do much but the basics of the job, and being courteous.

Co-workers can be another issue. Just watch how people respond to each other, and then follow in kind as much as you can. Don't try being something other than yourself, however. That never works.

YES!! !!

I got hired today!! !! !! I have a job!

GOOD FOR YOU!

Let us know how it goes.

BeeBee

nice one, evilwalks

Congratulations, EvilWalks, and good luck on your first job! Let us know how your first day went.

Strangely, where I live Fry's is a big electronics store, not a food supermarket.

Haha, been there too!

And anyway, I still have to go for a couple days of training, which will be this coming Tuesday, and then the next Saturday.

Good show, I didn't get my first job until I was 18, and then again until I was 20.

I guess how easily you get hired (SOMETIMES) depends on the interviewer/boss? I got hired right off the bat.
