So I went to a “Hiring Fair” at a national company today. The flier said business casual. Since for the last 9 years I worked at Walmart, I don’t have business casual. I put on my best looking cargo khakis, and nice shirt and a tie.
I get to the place, and the office is empty. The flier didn’t have a time, it just said all day. I got there about 1pm. There’s one guy sitting, waiting. He’s not in business casual.
He’s in a pair of dirty jeans. And. A. Sweatshirt. A SWEATSHIRT.
Anyways. Details of the job;
Outside Sales.
For the first 3-4 months, it would be $2k a month, paid twice a month. After that, its 100% commission. That is too unsteady for me. Great benefits though. Like I told Crystal via text message after,
“If it was salary plus commission, I’d be ok with it.”
So I think if they call for another interview, I will say thanks, but no thanks.
I don’t need the stress of having to make my pay cheque from commission.
