Oh Loey, for pete sake! You don't have to be embarrassed about that! If it makes you feel better I will delete it but thats far from the worst I've ever heard. FAR from the worst. You can always edit it and or even delete it as well. Just go to the post and look at the top right hand corner. There is an edit icon and a delete icon.

Hahaha Ok ok ok...well...I dunno. Kind of how I thought it would go. I think I'm going to end up going home sooner than I planned. Not exactly my first choice right now because I have stuff in the works right now but, ya gotta do whatcha gotta do. I think they could tell I was nervous but it went ok. They kind of seemed interested. I told them I would be back there on the 20th. I think they are playing hardball with me to see how far I'd really go to get this job even though they already know I want it pretty bad. I have doctors appointments set up for myself I'll have to cancel. I was also going to meet my grandma in Tennesse while she was visiting family and take her back with me the rest of the way so I wouldn't get lost. (I've gotten lost every time I've traveled back and fourth WITH people because the routes are marked so crappy...I can't imagine going back alone.) They said that they were still interviewing people and they would let me know. They were wanting someone to get in there sooner than what I'd be able to. Who knows? Maybe I'll get it maybe I won't. I have to go either way because I have to get a job. So I may not be around much the end of the week.... I'll have to call them and let them know I'll be coming sooner.

Well it sounds like it went pretty good. If you really want the job and you tell them you are returning sooner because that is what they require, I bet you will get it. That shows great initiative, dedication and a willingness to be very flexible.

EEEEEEEXXXXXXXCCCCCCCCCEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEENNNNNTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!
Just get there safe and have a bang up interview. What has happened now is that you've shown them you're interested, shown your phone skills (if you didn't know, that is part of the process) and now you get to sit down and have a talk with them in person...well done. This is kinda the final step...basically, you're now just putting the icing on the cake for your skills, personality and abilities..no more real salesmanship here, this is where you will get asked questions like how do you relate to people, how do you handle certain situations with coworkers that aren't pleasant? Stuff like that, so you should have little problem with that at all.....

The interview was EXCELLENT! SOOO much better than over the phone. I think they were really happy. They seem really interested. The assistant manager was out sick today so the manager wants me to come back tomorrow to meet her. Thats a good sign I cannot believe how encredibly beautiful the building is! It's all a mixture of art deco and greekish style trim. When you walk in it almost looks like a train station and they have all these paintings on the cieling. The building is huge and elegant. I was glad I wore all black because everyone there wore all black so I fit in well. I'm so excited! I don't want to jinx myself so I'm not going to say anything else

good news indeed.....if you didn't impress the assistant manager today she wouldn't of asked you to come back tomorrow so while you're not in the door yet, you sure sound like you impressed them.....
