In all seriousness you're probably too far away anyway (I live in Gatineau, QC).
Engineer work doesn't scare me though, I'm a very quick learner and if something interests me, I'll pick it up and be very decent to good at it fairly quickly.


Anyways hope your other interviewees make it on time :P


OOOOHHHH also forgot to say I have a minor in public administration so I'd make a great manager (conflict resolution and ways to approach issues from social work, analytical and writing skills from political science, and knowledge of good management practices and know-how from public administration).... Now someone give me a job

So what we do if we're going somewhere we haven't been before is very simple. We're early.
Then we wait outside or in the lobby, review our presentation or whatever; and step through the client's door at exactly 2 minutes before the scheduled time.
Oh, and this interview is over. Good luck and goodbye."
First I terrier I had before graduating was at Home Depot HQ in Atlanta. Wasn't 100% on how long it would take me to get there (Atlanta traffic is unpredictable) or where exactly to go. Ended up getting there about 45 minutes before my interview process

1st question on Tcoat's list of interview questions:

1. (applicant name) do you ever spend countless hours visiting internet car forum sites on company time?

I bought mine for $16,955 with 17k miles on it. It's a 2013, bought it from a local Toyota dealership about a month ago.

I picked up a 2014 FR-S with 14k miles for $17.5k last month from a Toyota store in Pittsburgh. Navigation, fog lights, manual transmission. The body is a little scuffed up, nothing through the paint, but one parking lot ding and a couple deep scratches.

What did you pay for your car?

Stupid cheap lease, $0 down, insurance and consumables/maintenance included.

$30,000 NZD for 2013 Toyota GT86 with 19,300km on odo.

I have been saving and finally managed to buy my first car with cash. No regrets despite the build quality a little lacking.

It's a sparse sportscar and in all that's lacking, its a brilliant lil car. Congrats in your cash purchase
