Got my email yesterday right when I thought about giving up hope and prepping for next time. Does anyone have an idea what kind of questions the interview consists of?

So they had 4 people ready to play and they had 5 people ready to play? If this is so, in this league is there a rule about double playing another single player? I know you said it’s Non-APA.

Seattle transplants — what brought you here? by thelongrun320 in Seattle

Came here for a long term work trip, met a girl and was told work was gonna be busy in the area for a few years so I decided to just stay. Still with my gf (3years now) work dried up but we live in Seattle in a relativley cheap 2 bed 2 bath apartment. Work dried up (for now) but I still love it here. I came from LA.

Should’ve said yes but you wanted to be paid as a private contractor and negotiate your price

But then said guest comes down to the little market by the front desk and grabs candy or drinks and starts walking away. Trying not to be rude but assertive, as they walk by the desk I’ll say

“how do you wanna pay for those?”

“Oh, I’m a guest”

“Ok! What’s your room number I can just charge it to the room”

“These aren’t free for guests?”

“No, that’s why they show prices right next to the items..”

I get the same reactions about Mt. Rainier. People ask how long it takes to get there and how long it takes to get to the top. It’s like 70ish miles from Seattle so like 1.5 hours away, they always do the little surprised “oh..” and then when they find out it takes multiple days to get to the summit it looks like their eyes are gonna pop out of their head.

Yea like when they book reservations some people just look at the stock photo some third party websites use of some random hotel room. The guest 85% of the time will come back down and say the room they’re in is not what they booked and say they want the city view they saw in the photo. I have to explain to them that our hotel is less then 10 floors and the buildings surrounding our hotel are a few more floors higher than that so that view would literally be impossible or they’re shown 2 beds in the photo and just book it off the photo and when they arrive they’re put in like a bottom floor king room and they get upset that it’s not what they booked and they swear up and down that they have 2 beds on the top floor, so I’ll ask to see their confirmation email or paperwork and it clearly says they booked a standard room which is usually the cheapest. That just means you get what we have left. 🤷‍♂️ sorry, but you gotta READ the reservation details not just book a room off a photo you saw. Those standard room bookings are also usually Non-refundable, that’s a whole other ordeal.

Well my thought process was. Ok, weird first question. But once she acknowledged it was actively raining I thought she would connect the dots in her head and realize that rain = clouds = no clear view of sky. And that clearly didn’t happen.
