I went in to Outback Steakhouse yesterday to fill out an application, and the manager came up front and told me to come back for an interview today at 2, so when I did I walked in and the first thing the girl did was make me take a math test!!! I freaked for a minute and then took some deep breaths, took out some scrap paper, and did my best. THEN I had to take a personality test! *Sigh* Anyway, while we were waiting for the results he interviewed me and said, "Well...I'm ready to hire you so all we need is to get those test results to see if you passed. If you passed, you're hired."

SO, after taking tests for and hour and a half, then goign through a horrible interview, I had to sit there by myself for 15 minutes waiting. He comes back to the table and goes, "What was I thinkin...sheesh, you passed with flying colors!!" So then he tells me I'm hired, and I go in on Wednesday for orientation! Then I have to go through training which includes classes, shadowing, and HOMEWORK! Just when schools lets out But anyway, thanks for reading my posts and for wishing me luck! It helped!!



Now I have to figure out how to tell my current boss

Yaay! Outback Steakhouse, eh? I've never been there, but I guess they serve dead cow?

What is "shadowing"? I can understand the need to know how to collect money and make change, but who will you have to "shadow"? And why?

And why do you have HOMEWORK? What the -- ???

Strange place, Outhouse.

Well, Sweetie, I'm glad you found a job that interests you. Someone finally got smart and hired you. They won't be sorry, I'm sure. You'll make a FABULOUS waitress.

I have also heard that Outback supports celiac patrons by providing special meals for them... looks like you signed on with a good place!
