Tell that to my friend who wore a suit to a job interview at a theme park, she did not get the job becuz of what she wore.

I'm sure that's probably just what she told you.

Just everyone leave me alone.

You're the one that posted the topic. You can always choose to not read responses.

There was some good advice listed, you may want to take some of that to heart and use it to improve your interview skills and presentation.

Who gives a crap if I use or not you guys will just continue to make fun of me no matter what.

I work with people like the OP every day. I really don't think the OP is a troll, I think that he/she is just really that clueless. I see this kind of behavior all the time. You would be surprised how many people don't know basic interviewing skills and etiquette.

I actually kind of felt sorry for the OP at first, but he's not making it easy to stick up for him.

Nothing.

I don't really care. I just had a hunch and was curious. That's all.

AND NO I AM NOT A TROLL IT'S CALLED DEFENDING YOURSELF.

The fact that you are going to 'show everyone' by getting a job and the fact that you felt threatened says a lot about you. That certainly isn't the sort of attitude you want to present during the interview.

Also, I just wanted to know if she used public transit regularly. I just had a feeling she did.

Come on, she is not mental!

Look, the OP is probably very young. I would say 18. When I was 18 I did plenty of dumb naive things. You live and learn.

[EVAunit1981]

Given some of the other things she's said elsewhere, I'd be surprised if she wasn't.

But yeah, lets not bash the OP too much ok? Maybe she can learn from this.

So I made a mistake big whoop I didn't think it was such a big deal.

Applying for a job is very competitive. You want to make it appear that it is your only concern. Yes, that is a bit silly, but it is a necessary bit of theatre. Don't make it look like you are running errands while you are interviewing.

And I did go into the interview looking nice I wore nice pants, a nice blouse, make up, braclet, nice shoes, I looked good for a interview at a simple retail shop.

Why should I go to a retail place dressed in a office type of suit? If I would have done that they would have looked at me weird.

Agreed. You can overdress. Your instincts were good on this one. If you are interviewing for a clerk position at retail nice pants/shirt is a good call.
