No kidding!

I showed up in normal interview attire -- suit, tie, polished my shoes, made sure the crap & corruption under my nails was all cleaned out (was working on the car, doing some plastering, and laying ceramic tile -- my hands were a mess). Hell I even got a haircut and had my suit pressed the day before.

You don't have to worry about the probation period. I have seen asshats with less than 90 days take time off without notice, argue with the supervisor and should definately been fired. Just do what the boss asks you and blend in and everything will be fine. As for apartments, check the local paper online classifieds.......the Oakville Beaver. Yeah I know. Nice name for a paper. There are lots of apartments around Trafalgar Road and White Oaks Blvd. Cheap? I doubt that in Oakville. Expect to pay atleast $850/month for a 1 bedroom. But with the students leaving town, you should be able to find a place easily. And no, you can't move in with me. :lol:

the guy scheduled for his interview before Aaron was late. And denied a job right there on the spot. Dumb ass. Pretty important not to be late for a job that will change your life.

Yeah i'm probably not going to look right in Oakville, maybe the surrounding area with a 20-30 drive in.

I can't live with you? Aww come on.. i'll let you drive my focus...LOL it should have the PWSC in it soon :D

Just be careful when looking for a place and insist on a written agreement and READ IT! I cannot tell you the number of people that come through my office after they sign a lease that has them bent over sideways and there's jack they can do about it <_<

How did you know you had it from the interview? The guys i had my interview with didn't really let on.... and at the end i got the "don't call us we'll call you" so i was like WTF?

Yeah i'm pretty stoked that i've gotten this far! Especially with everything that is going down with GM out here!

And keep an eye out for my car.... it will be my daily driver for a while B)

I had a very different interview......the 5 standard questions were there but I had a huge off the record conversation with the guy..........he said I was very smart guy and didnt understand why I wanted to work there. There was more said, but Im not going to get into detail with it because its private. He didnt flat out say I had the job(because I dont think he was allowed too), but he dropped more then enough hints......I just hope Im not on trim, but whatever.
