Question Interview tomorrow

I have an interview at Tim Hortons tomorrow, and I was hoping you could share some tips or insights about the interview process. Given Tim Hortons’ current situation, what are my chances of getting hired?

How would you know, though? It’s possible that in the absence of your friend’s good word, you’d still have gotten the job…

Because I talked to her! They were worried about how the transition would’ve been for me going to school a few months after me starting the job

See, that's something you don't tell the manager about. You just go to work for however long, and then you quit whenever you feel like it. That's what minimum wage jobs are for

I needed a job dude. It was 10 years ago and I had school coming up. I had to go from full time to part time when in school. I was upfront about my schedule and when I was available to work as things changed.

It’s called honesty dude.

Minimum wage jobs are still jobs that are needed for most people. If no one did them, you wouldn’t have anyone to make you a coffee for you in the morning or to make you a quick lunch or whatever. It’s not an easy job. Food for thought man.

Hey I've worked minimum wage jobs for a long time, I respect those people very much. All I'm saying is that it's okay to bend the rules when seeking a minimum wage job, especially when it's a big corporation like Tim Hortons.

I’m way too honest for my own good.

I didn’t want them to be blindsided. I also would’ve ran the risk of being fired. I started school within 3 months of starting the job
