today.. i gt CONNED. i gt conned to going for an interview at this company at tanjong pagar, Apex Towers to be exact. i believe tt the company is called the DW group. it was actually my 2nd interview lah.. i went with nic.

we were first whisked off for a "presentation". guess where? AT A FREAKIN COFFEESHOP!!! WTF!!!! The "presentation" was made by 2 16 yr old guys who just finished their 'N' levels. i mean, tt i can accept.. u know, they looked nice and presentable in long sleeves and ties.. the works.. but they were wearing ankle socks!! white ankle socks!! with black leather shoes!!! and worse, one of the guys' pants were too short, like above the ankle!!! so while me n nic were walking behind them, we couldn stop laughing because it was like.. so funny!! haha.. omg.......

so.. we willingly sat down at the coffeeshop.. u know.. not knowing wat we were in for.. but u know wat? the guys weren't even capable of making small talk!! omg.... so i got the ball rolling lah.. asked one of the guys hw long he'd been working, he told me tt he'd been working for abt 3 wks.. i was like "oh... ooookkk..." then i asked him wat the company was abt and all..

tts when he tk out the brochures.. and i realise... DANG! fool of a took! i'm being conned!!

so i said to nic, in hushed tones, "We're being c-o-n-n-e-d". she looked at me, puzzled, then asks "Are u sure?". damn right i was..

u know wat? they were selling magnetic matresses and pillows!!! like... wat?! they expect ME to sell those crap? oh mama...... they were barking up the wrong tree baby..

but i didnt want to be all bitchy and stuff.. so i just listened to his little "presentation". he went on and on abt the bld vessels, rbcs, wbcs, platelets, and he kept saying "+ve and -ve ions", like it was an oh-so-cheem term.... FOOL OF A TOOK. but i was trying to be open-minded u know.. so i was listening.. and listening.. and listening..

then this 2 girls came.. and he repeated the "presentation" all over again. oh brother..... (rolls eyes)

the 2 girls obviously didnt buy the explanation either. apparently, the magnets help to "charge up the positive and negative ions in the blood". WAT?! i thot magnets induce a pole.. not a charge... wat the....

i swear i was trying so hard to surpress my laughter.. but when he talked abt charging up the ions, i just burst out.. it was so unintentional!!

Sigh.. so i said to the poor boy (who by this time had mixed emotions in his eyes-- sad, pissed, confused etc);

Moi: Look, can u pls do me a favour. Can u tell ur manager or ur boss that we (*pointing to nic n me) are not interested.
Him: In sales?
Moi: Yah.
Him: So u want to do admin?
Moi: No. Just tell ur boss we dont want the job ok?
Him: *Gives me a "Bitch." look
Moi: (*being sarcastically nice) So, can we take our leave now?
Him: *nods, looking away.

poor boy. i bet he's still wearing tt pathetic lk on his face to this hr.

no wonder there were so many young boys and girls at the office. omg. i cant believe employers like this still exist. they ought to be skinned and hung by their toe nails..

on a totally bezerkly different note, saw a cute guy today!! he smiled at me!!(i tink...)
