Question About Jobs With Commission

[TomServo]

Blockbuster Music also sold movies, I think. Weird.

Yeah, weird.

Maaaaaaaan. I just got back from seeing the owner. He was Armenian, I always thought he was Persian. Anyway, before I could bring it up, he brought it up and asked how I felt about getting commission only. I was like, "Yeah, I was gonna ask you about that." I told him I wanted a basic salary and everything and he told me since I have no experience he can't just gimmie that. I don't know, he said the store doesn't work like others. They don't pay minimum wage and start like others. He said if I wanted that I should go to the mall or something. He told me about the commission salary and I was like, "Yeah, that sounds nice, but I'm not getting a gaurentee pay-check." I mean, yeah, it's cool how I'll get 20% off whatever I sell, but then again, the store is way too slow. What's the chances of someone coming in an buying something. I've been there a lot and nothing is sold. Ugh. Now I'm like, confused. Back at having no job. Don't know what to do.

You live in Glendale! I'm sure there are many opportunities. My area sucks, nobody is hiring. I recently applied for a job and I was hired. I start tomorrow and I don't want to go. It's pretty far from where I live too. Blah.

I went to the mall with my friend and turned in like, 50 applications. Every store in the mall. We went others places too- Smart and Final, Sears, etc. Nobody called us back. Nobody! This was my only hope. Now I gotta see if my friend can get me a job where he works, or wait on my aunt to get a job at Bank of America. Nowadays, only connections can get you a job.

[TomServo]

I got my job thru connections.

[One-Way]

Haha, see. Anyway, congratulations on getting that job.

[TomServo]

Thankies.
