Anyone work at ADIDAS?

[UNTER dude]

i got a 2nd interview there next wendsday. does anyone know if they drug test?

i smoked 2 times this week, once on sat and once on wendsday(halloween). it wasn't a lot, maybe 1 gram total between 3 heads total for both sessions. this was the first times i smoked since 7 weeks ago.

do i have a chance to pass if i drink shit tons of water on wendsday?

also tips on the interview.

read the 1st reply I wrote in the "what is a good job for a pothead?" thread. You're gonna need it. Oh, and btw, I should hope no one on here is dumb enough to share with us where they work.

lol you were clean for 7 weeks then smoke a few days before the test... nice

I gotta say, being high can only make you a better shoe salesman. Besides, do they expect you to spend 8 hours a day selling shoes sober?!

 

[UNTER dude]

well dude I only knew they were gonna call me today. ****. i probably don't have the money to buy synthetic piss, nontheless know where to buy it

does anyone know how much at home drug testing kits are?
i heard if you test negative on those you'll probably pass your drug test

If a place does test, they tell you to get tested after they hire you, before you start. So if the interview is wednesday, and you can put off taking the test until the next wednesday, and you take that shit on you 4th piss of the day, and dont LOOK at a joint, MAYBE you will pass. Mostly it depends on body weight as it's stored in fat cells. If you are skinny, you got better odds. The 7 weeks off would have you at baseline unless you were a fat daily toker. So the 1 gram shouldn't give you readable levels for much more than 2 weeks, I would think.

Dont bother wasting money on a test kit, fer christ sakes. If you cant be bothered finding synthetic urine (Try google you effing schmoehawk) then what the hell do you care if you fail the home kit (you will fail if you take now)? So you can keep taking them every hour to see when you get clean? Maybe this is why you don't have money... Do you find yourself parting easily with it?

i live in my parent's house, so getting fake urine sent to my house would raise eyebrows lol. i just moved to a new city (pretty conservative), and there probably wouldn't be a smokeshop that carried fake urine that would be close to here. so that's why i was contemplating getting an at-home drug test.

haha shit I'd be the worst salesman ever.

I recently moved to a new city (hint it begins with C and ends with harlotte) and might be starting a job at a nearby bookstore.
Problem is, I need to sell something like 8 magazine subs each week and 1 discount card a day. I am also required to ask EACH customer no matter what if they are interested in either item described above.


"Excuse me sir, I notice you are purchasing a two dollar pen. Would you like to buy this eight dollar magazine or fifteen dollar discount card?"
Somehow I don't see this scenario working out in my favor

 

[Saibai]

Feel sorry for you dude, gotta say though that I love not having to sell a quota of crap and not having to worry about being piss-tested. **** that for a joke.

 

[usa]

its hunting season, go to a sporting good store and get some deer piss

 

[Saibai]

^^^^^
Haha...

















...you are joking, aren`t you?

That sounds exactly like the problems faced by workers at a local used videogame store around these parts. Pushing magazine subs and discount cards (especially when Halo 3 was coming out)

I work for Adidas in the Drug test lab. My role here is to analyse the piss tests of potential applicants and report my findings to the HR dept.

Many thanks for giving me an easy day!

The name of that video game store rhymes with lamestop. They are owned by barnes and noble. The people that work there are required to push a certain magazine that is published by b&n.

I forgot you wanted interview tips...

Dress- Button down, slacks, casual shoes- doc's, clarks, or similar. And fer chrissakes wear colored socks, tuck in, and match your belt to your shoes, huh? Take out earrings/piercings. Look, I'd rather higher a guy who is at the risk of taking things too seriously. I get some schmoehawk who is untucked, slouchy, and wearing cut-offs, I'm going to take that as someone who doesn't respect themselves, me, or the interview process. I don't care if you are going to be wearing a bunny costume when you start the job- you dress nice when you interview. Or go to court. Or church/wedings/funerals.

Attitude- You are hungry, you want to work for them, learn from them, and make them money. They would be foolish not to hire you, because you are going to bust your balls for them. (ps- HR does interviews and hiring... odds are the bullshit you spit to get hired won't be at the same guy you work for) Think about it... You are there asking for the job, so you need to sell yourself to them. Why should they hire you? When they ask you what your faults are, tell them- without hesitation- you are a workoholic. Even if they know you are bullshitting, they will love it, because that is all sales is.

Work is a game, man. It's basically like acting, start to finish. Act like you want the job, Get it, and then adopt a work persona, act like you care, blah blah. Just don't start buying your own bullshit. Oh, and if this is a sales position, then be prepared to have your bosses up your asshole, getting you to squeeze every last penny out of people who can't afford it. If you are doing a job, you should be doing it well. And in sales, that involves checking your conscience at the door. Proceed with caution...

^^ would arguile print be a lil too "laid back"?

 

[HuffAndPuff]

No, actually, now you're thinking. No foolin', a pink shirt works along the same lines. I never said you couldn't be bold with your choices. I just meant you had to choose your outfit from the right section.

The way I see it, some argyle print, or a pink shirt, or some other personal steez/flair shows me that you understand there are frameworks within which we must operate, but that you are capable of working creatively to those ends. Major bonus points. I think the difference between cockiness and confidence, as far as employers are concerned, is mostly related to respect. Respect for yourself, your work, your superiors. People who are cocky don't listen to anyone but themselves, people who are confident strive to learn their weaknesses so they can improve. They will confidently tell you they don't have an answer to something, rather than making something up, or providing an excuse.

Speaking of Argyle- Time to go golfing. Or GOF, as they say in Scotland- without the 'L'....
