Featured Drinking an alcoholic beverage could land you a job!

Which, being interpreted, meaneth: Now THAT's what I wanted to hear!

 

The fact he posed it as a topic in a debate forum kinda belies your assertion.

Duh.

:tonofbricks:

 

Persecution complex, much?

 

The OP is very confused about the alcohol content of what's he's drinking, which is dangerous. He told me his favorite, 'Mike's Hard', is:

In reality, Mike's Hard Light is 3.2% and Mike's Hard is 5% ABV,.
On the MolsonCoors site, the light beers range from 2-4%, and 5% is typical for the regular beers.

 

Evangelist, you know you wouldn't have to make exceptions if you didn't drink at all?:smilewinkgrin:

But don't be discouraged about the attacks or the constant cynicism. This board is filled with some very nasty personalities that can be more toxic than the alcohol in a Mike's Hard Lemonade if you allow them to be.

Roll with the punches and recognize it for what it is. Be blessed today.:jesus:

 

Why don't you try to start that business up again in, say, november? I bet you'd make a small fortune during that time in CT. :laugh: J/K :love2: :love2:

 

Try not to EVER speak negatively about a former employer during an interview. That's on the big list of no nos. They'll think you will do the same thing to them if you ever leave.

If they ask what you did not like, say it in such a way that it doesn't sound like you're slamming the previous employee. For example, if the previous place of employment was chaotic and out of control, say something like "I wish we could have been better organized. I believe a little bit more structure would have allowed us to better accomplish our goals and meet our deadlines".

 

I think evangelist needs to take a lawyer with him on his next interview and let the lawyer do the talking.

 

Believe it or not, one of my friend's uncle wanted to start a surf shop on Long Island and wanted me to build surfboards for him. Shapers made big money back then, but I was only 15 years old and scared to death of the responsibility.

You can make good money building surfboards, several of my friends I grew up with continue to build boards to this day and make a nice living.

 

Ever been to Boulder?



Oh, wait. You'll need a passport.

 

It was a surfer named Mike Doyle that invented the snowboard that you see so much in Coloorado.

You know, if you really want to do something, you can.

 

So, are you trying to say if you can't get a job that it is God's fault? That sounds like what you are trying to say.

And getting a steady job and holding that job by showing up every day and doing good work is what the scriptures teach. It is not some sort of self-help philosophy.

2 The 3:8 Neither did we eat any man's bread for nought; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you:
9 Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us.
10 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
11 For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.
12 Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.

Paul had the same "philosophy" as John Smith of the Jamestown colony who said, "He that does not work, neither shall he eat" because some folks were not working and taking advantage of others.

Now, I know it can be difficult to get a job out there, especially today, but when folks try to give you helpful advice, the least you can do is be respectful, even if you will not be thankful.

If you want to get a job, tell the interviewer how hard you will work, how you will show up every day and be dependable, how you will be flexible and learn, how you will strive to do a excellent job. Don't tell them your favorite drink is Mike's Hard Lemonade, and that you will not criticize them when they sin.

Your biggest problem is your attitude.

 

Hell must have froze- I agree with you!
