Networking and scary job interviews

WandererX12 Wrote:Eek. I met this guy on the train last week, and after talking about jobs and resumes for a while we traded phone numbers. He called me tonight, and told me that he had found a bartending interview for me tomorrow at 'The Monkey Bar'(he's friends with the manager). Which is attached to NYC's Hotel Elysee, the type of hotel where rooms go for $250-365 a night. This place is far fancier than the type of bar that I expected to work at, which was more a t-shirt and jeans beer and shot type place. I am not at all prepared for this. Tomorrow I need to pick up my suit from the cleaners, get my hair cut, get a job counseler to help me get my resume in order, hopefully jump behind a bar and practice for a while, and learn to use the NYC subway system, before a sometime between 3&5 appointment with a guy named Vladimir. The tips I can make off of a glass of insanely overpriced cognac or wine may be amazing, but I don't know that my 40 hour certificate course and 6 hours real bar experience have me ready for someplace so classy. But I'm probably overthinking it. I wish I could show up with alcohol on my breath because I always do better socially with a little relaxer. Hmm, I wonder if the guy I met is really friendly and helpfull, or just gay like all the other men who have offered me "jobs". Guess I'll just have to cross my fingers.

Well I couldn't be a bartender or a waitress if my life depended on it so the only thing I can say is Good Luck! Try staying calm and everything will be fine. Wink
