I have an initial meeting with an H.R. rep about a job. What's on my face?

[GOPisEvil]

You guessed it. A Big. Ass. Zit. :eyes::nopity:

[matcom]

1. is the job selling Clearasil?

:D

[GOPisEvil]

2. Proactiv!

I'm interviewing with Jessica Simpson. :P

[Heidi]

3. When's the interview?

If you have 12 to 24 hours, put toothpaste (not the gel kind) on the zit now to make it go away quickly. :thumbsup:

[GOPisEvil]

4. Unfortunately, it's in an hour and a half.

That's a good suggestion though.

[Heidi]

5. Then you'll just have to be underhanded and

divert their attention with your sparkly eyes and beautiful smile. (You do have a nice smile, ya know.) Good luck, my friend. :thumbsup: :hug:

[GOPisEvil]

9. Thankfully, this is just a testing day.

No interview with mgmt. yet.

Thanks for the positive thoughts. :hug::)

[kick-ass-bob]

6. Girlfriend - where's your concealer and powder?!

:D

[GOPisEvil]

10. ...and on THAT note...

I gotta hop in the shower and get ready.

Bye everyone! Thanks. :hi:

[bicentennial_baby]

7. got any concealer?

i doubt it, sooooo :hug:

just win 'em over with your smile and your charm baby... you'll do fine :)

[cynatnite]

8. Get a washcloth as hot as you can stand it...

put it on the zit and apply pressure. It might help to shrink it enough to not be noticeable. That's what I do when my face turns on me like that.

[underpants]

11. Good advice here

also to keep it from bleeding cut off oxygen (this is the purely cosmetic short term solution) by putting a thin layer of petroleum jelly over it.

[DS1]

12. Take a big red sharpie, circle it, make an arrow pointing to it

and write NOT A ZIT SO STOP LOOKING AT NOTHING YOU FUCKER AND YOU'RE WRONG AND I HATE YOU AND I HATE MYSELF AND JUST GIVE ME THIS JOB BEFORE I KILL EVERYONE on the other end of the arrow.

Works every time.

another alternative is I WAS FONDLED FOR PAY BY MY FATHER IN CHEAP MOTEL ROOMS UNTIL I WAS 22 YEARS OLD, AND IF YOU DON'T GIVE ME THIS JOB I'LL CUT OFF/OUT YOUR NAUGHTY BITS WITH A PIECE OF BROKEN MIRROR

That also gets me more attention than the other job candidates.

[GOPisEvil]

13. I'm back!!!

Things went well. Unfortunately for the zit, it got in the way of my razor. :P

[SOteric]

14. "Thank you so much for your time, Mr. Evil.

I'm afraid we've nothing at this time for which you'd be a good fit, however, we'd like to offer your zit a position at our front desk."

:hug:

Don't worry, Davey. You'll grow out of them. By the time you get to be in your 30's you won't even remember you ever had them.

[GOPisEvil]

15. Right. My 30s. It'll be YEARS before I see my 30s.

:woohoo:

[Not_Giving_Up]

16. I hate to tell you this but

I'm over thirty, and they still get me...rarely, but it happens, usually at the worst possible time.

Good luck with the job process. I'm waiting to hear on a job right now, and trying not to stress too much.

[GOPisEvil]

17. Dammit!!!

Oh, I just checked my driver's license, and apparently I'm already well into my 30s. x(x(x(x(

Thanks. I hope this goes well. I could use some positive cash flow. Good luck on your job! :)

[rbnyc]

18. That answers my how's-your-day question.

But seriously, the rep will probably not even notice.

Don't let it rattle you.

[LynneSin]

19. You applying for a job with Estee Lauder or something?

You should be fine!

[GOPisEvil]

23. Wow! How'd you guess?

:P

[LynneSin]

26. Damn, you're screwed

I mean it's a company who's basically looking for clean zit-free faces and you're fucked!

[LynneSin]

20. You applying for a job with Estee Lauder or something?

You should be fine!

[In_The_Wind]

21. You'll do fine. Don't worry about a thing.

[texas1928]

22. I like DS1's advice.

it is very sound.

[evlbstrd]

24. That happened to me on the first day (week!) on the job.

And I'm fifty. Go figure.

[GalleryGod]

25. I called a friend to cheer you up!
