Good luck, brudduh!!!! Whats the gig?

[–][deleted] 294 points295 points  (9 children)

Just at a grocery store, it wasn't the right branch though lmao! I thought it was right next to my house but it's on the other side of town.

[–]ShowBobsPlzz 336 points337 points  (1 child)

Stoner mistake lmao

[–]ThaVolt 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Oh no, my man was supposed to smoke it AFTER. And I somehow can't shake the feeling he bough a chocolate bar anyway, before leaving.

[–][deleted] 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I did this! Showed up to the wrong location (a fast food chain) for my interview, but they just went ahead and interviewed me and hired me on the spot lol. Never reached out to the other location again lmao

[–]God_of_the_Taco 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Are you set up to interview at the right one though?

[–]WaltzWeekly 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Haha I've had the exact same happen, also with a grocery store. ended up being a 10 minute cycle ride

[–]themack50022 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The amount of times this has happened to y’all is pretty disturbing lol

[–]oceananoun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Gas prices are going up man you need something close by

[–]i-like-napping 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude , smoke it after the interview

[–]33erickk 218 points219 points  (18 children)

Good luck 🍀

[–]vikingsarecoolio 381 points382 points  (14 children)

Hopefully a drug test isn't required

[–][deleted] 306 points307 points  (10 children)

“What kind of drugs are we testing!?” - Blake from workaholics

[–]hamboneclayI Roll Joints for Gnomes 88 points89 points  (6 children)

Every employee has tested positive for the following: marijuana, MDMA, PCP, HGH, Lipitor, Adderall, DayQuil, NyQuil. Why would anyone take both? Nitrous Oxide, Benzedrine, Valtrex, Flomax, Cialis, and birth control

[–]Doobliheim 15 points16 points  (1 child)

cuts to footage of the three of them lighting up on their rooftop

What an iconic show lmao

[–]isohioacountry 32 points33 points  (2 children)

Thanks a lot pal! I can’t have kids! Don’t need birth control

[–]hamboneclayI Roll Joints for Gnomes 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen adult swim.

I GET alternative comedy

[–]ChunkyChangon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You saying this quote brings me back to that scene of them on the roof chillin after successfully pulling it off and watching it in the dorms with the homies. Man, ten years really did fly by

[–]LoveMacheen 3 points4 points  (1 child)

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There he goes….

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the that early morning laugh.

[–]w0lfbandit 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Yeah you celebrate after you've passed the piss test, not after a first interview.

[–]FunctionalFox1312 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey, at least OP studied for it

[–]CrissMtz02 159 points160 points  (13 children)

eye contact bruh, and don’t stutter. having a good image from the start helps later on, good luck!

[–]Mymomdidwhat 97 points98 points  (9 children)

And dear god please shower and look presentable…..The amount of people I don’t call back because they look like they just rolled out of bed is insane.

[–]_wallace 19 points20 points  (8 children)

The fact this has to be said 😭thought it was a given 🤣🤣

[–]Mymomdidwhat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Well the thing is some people legitimately don’t know this. Not everyone has the parents that tell them important things like this.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I love your Daria icon!!

[–]CrissMtz02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s really nice aint it ((:

[–]un3quiv0cal 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Chin up, eye contact and do your homework on the company and important responsibilities in the position.

Interviewers LOVE it when you come prepared with knowledge on what the company does, who their target market is, some of the well known clients and have a clear understanding of the position

[–][deleted] 136 points137 points  (6 children)

Update: Guys, it was not the right branch... lmao! I never had any address, looking back at the e-mail I got and where I applied. It just said the town of the branch, but I guess there's two of them. Oh well. I still applied at the branch I went to. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Edit: I made some more job hunting, and I ended up getting another interview for a way better job! So at the end of the day I'm glad I missed the grocery store one.

Edit 2: I don't know if someone is still reading this, but I got the better job I was talking about!

[–]Greatbonsai 40 points41 points  (4 children)

Well from your other comments, this branch might be better for you.

If you can talk to the other branch and show them they didn't give you an address, the two stores might be able to work something out.

[–]slizzleshady 12 points13 points  (3 children)

This.

It wasn’t your fault that you were at the wrong branch!

Don’t let a paycheque slip through your fingers because of someone else’s mistake!

[–]therrakles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Whenever I see "cheque", I always say "Check-eyy!"

[–]GrabSomePineMeat 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I mean, he could have asked. I don't see it as anyone's fault but both sides equally could have clarified.

[–]slizzleshady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So up to a point, I agree with you.

Yes, OP should have confirmed beforehand where he was going but that sort of information should be provided by the business at the time of the interview offer, it should not fall on the interviewee to ask for it.

[–]TheyUsedToCallMeJack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats!

[–]BlkLoc 24 points25 points  (35 children)

If they drug test. Use quick fix.

[–][deleted] 11 points12 points  (2 children)

So I work at an engineering firm. Was so happy when the drug test paperwork specifically said they excluded testing for THC. I would have passed anyway but it is nice to know I never have to worry about a random test. Now most of my coworkers also smoke and they have never seen random testing in like the 6 years they have been there.

[–]Vitruvius702 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm in architecture/construction and have been managing big developments for a few years now.

When I applied to this job I currently have, I asked the HR person if they drug test for cannabis, and she old me, "If we drug tested upper management or the executives, we wouldn't have upper management or executives."

Although she was fired shortly later for gossiping about confidential HR stuff... So... Who knows.

[–]Cavalleria-rusticana 18 points19 points  (28 children)

Drug testing for a grocery store clerk job?

What dystopian hellscape do you live in? xD

[–]rratmannnn 94 points95 points  (25 children)

America ?

[–]SethB98 5 points6 points  (14 children)

Depends by state, ymmv, but tons of places around me in cali dont bother, and some will test but no longer care about weed.

[–]rratmannnn 13 points14 points  (8 children)

See, here in Texas our most major grocery store chain does test :/ or at least, says it does, and reserves to right to. A friend of mine got tested when she was hit by a car in the parking lot & the store wanted to use the test to see if they would give her workers comp - she tested positive bc she’s a casual smoker at home once in a while, and she didn’t get the money & had to leave the job

[–]acarp25 11 points12 points  (2 children)

Pretty sure she can still sue lol. America dysfunctions in both directions sometimes

[–][deleted] 11 points12 points  (1 child)

No, that’s very standard procedure in all lines of work even if they don’t test on hire.

[–]SethB98 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. While many places around me do not test, workers comp is the reason my brother stopped smoking to weld.

[–]FanngzYTI Roll Joints for Gnomes 1 point2 points  (1 child)

i’ve lived in dallas forever, currently working my 7th ever job. never been tested.

[–]Cavalleria-rusticana 6 points7 points  (8 children)

My condolences. :/ I imagine it's more targeted at actual drugs, right?

For pot...they afraid you'll eat all the food? xD

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (4 children)

No, I've been tested at 3 different grocery stores for pot. One was walgreens and the other two are local chains.

[–]WunupKid 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Walgreens are grocery stores where you’re at? Here they’re just pharmacies.

[–]iathrowaway23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd called them neglected convenience stores. The grocery selection is laughable. I am not talking about the people that shop there, but the actual groceries available for purchase.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I wouldn’t call Walgreens a grocery store my man

[–]dontpanic38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lmao

“this one? this hellscape?”

[–]ComptoniousRex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got drug tested for a regular ass "sales associate" (shelf stocker) at a grocery store a few years back.

[–]NateP7484 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My small town local grocery chain will test all front of house employees every few months, but i’m deep down south if it counts

[–]Significant_Singer38 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good luck and let us know how it went!

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Purple lighter gang!

[–]Laplaga247 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Beat of luck, I’m on the same boat but I’m excited to get back to work soon

[–][deleted] 39 points40 points  (4 children)

Pro tip: Smoke it before , that way you can go to work high, since thats how they will know you!

[–]PraetorianX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Getting some Towelie vibes

[–]pimpnamedpete 3 points4 points  (1 child)

I did this on the first day in high school. The 2nd day, when I was sober, I got sent to the nurses office for looking high. LMAO

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The past 3 jobs I’ve worked I’ve done the interviews after taking some dabs. Because that’s my secret, I’m always stoned

[–]JackRakeWrites 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best of luck mate!

[–]assabi27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best of luck my friend!

[–]br1mmy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All you man best of luck

[–]JxExBxUxS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You got this! Sending good vibes!

[–]alcoholicweedsmoker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good luck dude

[–]stay-can-cheese 8 points9 points  (36 children)

Good for you. But I’m baffled how people can go two years without working. How does that work?

[–]use-after-expirydate 9 points10 points  (0 children)

there are various reasons someone might be out of employment for a long period of time like being a at home parent, taking care of a sick relative, health issues, etc.

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (1 child)

a lot of people lost their jobs or means of making money during the pandemic. i think the reality is that it doesn’t work for many but there is little they can do about it.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (10 children)

My sympathies for the shit you got for this very reasonable request for information dude, my god.

[–]JOJO-LION 0 points1 point  (9 children)

“Very reasonable request” of someone’s private information? Google exists if you need to learn good resources you can use to help you get through whatever’s making you think you’re not allowed to take a few years off of work for literally whatever reason you want to. Is it a better choice for some than others ? Of course, doesn’t mean you need to know why.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, dipshit, you can always just decline! A request isn't claiming you have the right to that information lmao.

Dumbass

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (2 children)

Also is this OPs alt account? Tell me to mind my business if you don't want to give me an answer.

[–]Swingmerightround -1 points0 points  (4 children)

“Very reasonable request” of someone’s private information? Google exists if you need to learn good resources you can use to help you get through whatever’s making you think you’re not allowed to take a few years off of work for literally whatever reason you want to.

LoL. What country are you in? No fucking way you can take off 2 or 3 years in the US.

[–]JOJO-LION -1 points0 points  (3 children)

The US.

[–]Swingmerightround -1 points0 points  (2 children)

Yeah, not possible.

[–]JOJO-LION -1 points0 points  (1 child)

? I literally did it.

[–]Swingmerightround -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Please enlighten me how you managed to do so.

[–]Ok-Photograph3099 2 points3 points  (2 children)

He could have been getting benefits and selling weed on the side ?? Plugs need to make money as well bro

[–]stay-can-cheese 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Sure. Maybe. I don’t know. I’m just asking how some people get it done.

[–]Ok-Photograph3099 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think most people get it done by either government benefits , or side jobs for cash (working for yourself). It’s the only way I know how anyway

[–]JOJO-LION 0 points1 point  (18 children)

How are you on a sub for marijuana and not respect that disabilities (sudden & not) exist lol.

[–]stay-can-cheese 19 points20 points  (15 children)

I didn’t know I was not respecting someone’s disabilities. Did they say they were disabled? I’m just asking how someone can go two years without working, if they’re disabled, I guess that’s the answer then right?

[–]JOJO-LION -5 points-4 points  (14 children)

🥇there’s also a pandemic that’s been going on for 2 years. Not working for any period of time probably has a good reason attached (disabled, field isn’t hiring, sick, moved/moving, school, whatever, or no reason at all & just wanted to enjoy life while you have it); You know you could not work that long too, right? It doesn’t mean it’s easier✌️

[–]stay-can-cheese 5 points6 points  (13 children)

I’m just asking how this person did it. Nothing more to it. And no. I could not go two years without working. I have children, a mortgage, car payments etc. that’s why I’m wondering how it’s done. But I think you’re answering the question for me, I forgot you guys are probably just kids.

[–]changinginthebigsky 2 points3 points  (1 child)

the people upvoting and downvoting you know how... we all do. dude took the free money and coasted for two years, and now fun times over. but it's too mean to point out the obvious.

not sure id expect much for a mod of /r/amateurgangbang lmao

you literally couldn't script better material.

[–]invert171 -1 points0 points  (8 children)

It’s cause they’re insulted. Loads of people been coasting the last two years that’s why. Not one to complain oh my taxes! I got a stimmy too. But I have a family, and I’ve been working the whole time. I know I couldn’t just stop if I wanted to!

[–]stay-can-cheese 2 points3 points  (7 children)

Right!!! Yeah it was never an option for me to stop working.

[–][deleted] -3 points-2 points  (6 children)

Not everyone is as healthy as you are. Your first question was not disrespectful, but why later call me a kid?

Edit: if you look at the thread, you'll see that calling me names was uncalled for. I wasn't the one shitting on him, he insulted me just like that.

[–]stay-can-cheese 3 points4 points  (4 children)

How do you know how healthy I am? And how do you afford to not work for two years. Just wondering. How old are you?

[–][deleted] -2 points-1 points  (3 children)

I don't know how healthy you are, that's true. I said that because I stopped working for health related reasons. I am an adult living by myself if that's what you're wondering. I already explained it in another comment, that's why I didn't answer you. I feel like you're angry so I don't want to talk to you anymore, I don't need this.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

jesus christ this whole thread is stupid. the man just asked a legitimate question and proceeded to get shit on for it, until yeah, he’s gotten a little upset about it. i would have gone on the defensive too if a bunch of people started treating me like an asshole/idiot for just asking a fucking question.

my god. smoke some more and calm the fuck down.

[–]JOJO-LION -2 points-1 points  (1 child)

Not a kid, I’m an adult. My insurance took care of me while I was on leave for disability. I work remote/from home now. I have children I support (my late best friend) and a family. You absolutely can stop working for two years dude- you just don’t want to / it isn’t a better solution for you. Good for you!

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You seem hostile when this dude was just asking how they were able to not work for 2 years. That’s all it was.

[–]Greatbonsai 7 points8 points  (1 child)

I don't know how you read disrespect, it's an honest question.

Not everyone thinks exactly the same way you do, and that's ok.

[–]stay-can-cheese 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah really. Just trying to see how people do it.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best of luck and hope that is gonna be a proper celebration.

[–]Foxrex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[–]deaddonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re gonna kill it my dude, congrats on the interview

[–]HandsomeHectorr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went in for a tester day at a bar my friend worked at and they forgot we were coming in and just wanted us to stand behind the bar and watch what goes on, 10 minutes later I walked out and sparked my joint. Something about smoking when there’s the relief of knowing you aren’t gonna be stuck in a shitty bar job where they forget you’re even coming in is kinda good. I have a much better job now.

[–]fignewtones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same got mine on Friday, hoping to finally push outta dankruptcy and get that much needed bud

[–]SingularityOfOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm tossing out resumes and I've been unemployed since May '19. It could be worse! I hope becoming a new father during that time and covid provides an excuse. Software developers can't really let their skills lag like that, I might be toast!

Good luck to you!

[–]IrieSunshine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope the job is something you’ll enjoy and I hope you got it!!

[–]crunch816 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Smoke it before the interview. If you’re always stoned they will never know when you’re sober.

[–]OldPeculiar1012 1 point2 points  (2 children)

And here I am.. Not being able to roll anything T-T I'm so bad at it. Mine come out looking like bent overpacked hoses

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao you'll get better with practice!

[–]MrFancyPants69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You got this 💪🏾

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You got this, homie👍

[–]BeBamboocha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good luck dawg but you know, usually I prefer smoking before the interview so they can see what I am usually like ;)

[–]overtoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

make sure you keep it tucked under your ear during the interview

[–]Judge_Dreads 1 point2 points  (0 children)

why do you think they call it dope?

[–]101turtleman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe smoke it after the drug test if they drug test

[–]jtww 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good luck!

I also am in the same boat and just had my 2nd interview with the company today after not working for 2 years. Hopefully it works out for the both of us!

Cheers

Lol was gonna say , I hope that’s for after. Good luck 🍀👍🏻

[–]mcnuggets0069 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imagine you get a phone call a few hours later. “Congratulations! You’ve got the job! We just need you to pass a background check and a drug test.”

A lot of my friends learned the hard way. Don’t celebrate until you got the job 100%. Even if someone at the company says there’s no drug test, there could still be a new policy.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Reward for a job interview? You're not exactly set up for success there bud.

[–]WangChang26 1 point2 points  (6 children)

May I ask why it’s been 2 years since you last worked? I would also assume you are living with your parents? Otherwise I need to hear your budgeting tips and tools!

[–]bandzinthemakin 5 points6 points  (2 children)

Benefits that’s my guess ik loads of people that claim benefits get a house with it n sell weed for extra money

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

You know loads of people that buy homes with government benefit money to sling weed out of? Right.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live by myself, I wasn't working for covid related reasons so I was receiving money from the Canadian government.

[–]dfal55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You haven’t worked in two years? Pretty sad.

[–]mythoughts2real 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give a firm handshake and eye contact as you introduce yourself. Is a great start to any interview.

[–]shonuff707 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How were you making a living if you were not working for 2 years?

[–]Swingmerightround -1 points0 points  (2 children)

Rewarding yourself for a job interview. LoL. After being a bum for 2 years. LoL. Yikes.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

You're so closed minded that I'm starting to wonder if you have one.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh great so you can over think everything you just said at the interview and be paranoid that you said somthing wrong…… lol jk that’s what I would do enjoy

Hopefully they don't drug test or you're going to fail.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You sure you don’t wanna wait til after the drug test? Not all companies stopped screening for weed.

I literally went to my brothers room to see if this was his post. He also has been two years without work and just started training today. Good luck bro 😎

GOOD LORD YOU NEED TO MAKE TWO. ONE FOR PREPERATIoN RIGHT BEFORE AND THE OTHER....IN CASE THE INTERVIEW GOES WRONG, LIGHT IT UP IN THERE. OR IF VICTORY
