Another Day

Well, today I went to a job interview for car sales. It is with Autonation and if I could get in there, I could transfer to other stores when the market gets better. I don't have a good feeling about the interview. I applied there back in February but the manager at that time was very rude to me. It is under new management and I was supposed to meet with the General Sales Manager but she had to go somewhere, I was told. (Yes it is a woman, isn't that exciting, we are a rarity in the car business as salemen and even more so as managers.) The guy who interviewed me did not seem excited. He wasn't even paying attention to what I was saying. He was watching everybody else.

Oh well, my friend who normally is a top producer but just started there recently, has only sold two and half cars this month. Now you can do a whole month of sales in the last week of the month, but right now things are bad. He can't live on that and neither can I. Other friends are struggling too in the car business.

It took me two hours to get to the place on the bus. I was excited I could even take a bus there. I got on a wrong bus coming home and ended up in the middle of nowhere completely alone at night. And it was freezing. The bus driver said a bus was coming but it didn't come for hours. I was sitting there, bawling my eyes out, missing my little car and losing hope.
