So I was supposed to hear about the job at the petstore yesterday. The Assitant manager who interviewed me said they would call me yesterday because they were short handed, and the manager was going to be on vacation soon. Well when it got close to 3 pm when i start work and i know my phone will be tied up, and the Answering machine will not pick up. I called and politely asked to check on if there was any word. the girl was very rude, stated the Assistant manager wasnt there, bla bla. So I said that was ok and left my cell phone number so that he would at least be able to leave a message.
Well today...as of 2:30..no call. Alright fair enough I didnt think it was rude to call and check on the status, since they did say they would call me Yesterday. I am pretty big on people actually calling back when they say they will. I have always called my clients back when i say i will. even if i am perhaps busy, and can not talk i call to see if another time will work good for them. I know its not the same thing employee, client..but i would like to think you shoudl treat your employees with respect too.
Well the girl on the phone was once again RUDE, she was all snarky "THEY WILL CALL YOU BACK..WE ARE SHORT STAFFED AND THE MANAGER IS ON VACATION" i had to keep myself from laughing about the short staffed comment. DUH thats why I was intereviewed dont you think?
I kept myself as calm as i could and stated back to this lovely rude girl. "Yes I know the manager is on vacation that is why I was told by the Assitsant manager that I would hear back on Monday, because they needed help and the manager was on vacation"
She was silent. and was like "Oh..and they havent called you back?" boy isnt she a genius?! I polietly said no they have not and said goodbye.
Really has me re-thinking wanting to work for them. Just like I decided not to bother with Nutro..it took them well over a month for them to contact me about even interviewing. And I sumbited my thing TWICE. Bil Jac contacted me within a week, intewvied me and I start on thursday.
