So I applied for a job at Games Workshop

Thought fuck it why not?

I'm sick of my current job with (currently system admin/analyst within public sector).

Send them an email with my CV and a covering letter which they suggested I do....there wasn't any local jobs on offer, but I thought why not? I even offered to do some volunteer work if there was no paid jobs available.

Any advice user?

Job requirements include a circumcision

>Any advice user?
Remember: they hire for attitude and don't want dissenting or diverging voices.

I think you mean castration user.

If it's good enough for the Emperor's Angels of Death, it's good enough for me!

Oy vey.

The interview is a skype video call from a local GW rep. He'll ask you some questions about why you want the job, how long you've been in the hobby, what you think the responsibilities entail, and most importantly, how you intend to bring people who have never heard of wargaming into your store.

Get that last question right, and you get to begin your new job working for Satan.

Is the answer to outsource the entire art department to DeviantArt and raise prices?

>So I applied for a job at Games Workshop

Have fun paying the rent, I guess.

WHOA slow down there, you suggest some hot ideas like that in the opening interview they'll cut you out of the picture and do it themselves.

>implying he won't sleep in the GW store

But yeah I don't get people who complain about how much they hate their job when I only have a part time job right now. Any kind of steady employment that pays all your bills with money leftover is a blessing you should be thankful for. It's work. It's not supposed to be fun.

You gotta be a real useless fuck to not be able to get a job.

Spoken like a true gen X'er who was handed a job straight out of college. Most places won't even hire you unless you've had prior working experience, usually 1-2 years or even more. Now explain how a young adult who just entered the job market is supposed to obtain experience if no one will hire without requiring experience?

Lol, retired at 31,
do webporn for hobby money.
Handed to me?

Gotta have the skills to pay the bills I guess. Sorry you aren't so lucky.

Yeah, handed to you. What, you think a trust fund babby who made millions worked hard for his money when his father gave him a million to start with to begin with?

I noticed you completely ignored the bulk of what I said too, because you know I was right: you were handed your first full time job without even any experience required.

Who draws 40k on DA anymore?

>Now explain how a young adult who just entered the job market is supposed to obtain experience if no one will hire without requiring experience?

You gotta know people, homie. The hood got your back if you took your knocks.

>webporn
>calling others useless fucks

Literally human trash.

I did trade work you useless fuck.
Not sit on the internet complaining in a forum about only having parttime job when you could be sending out resumes.

>I'm sick of my current job with (currently system admin/analyst within public sector).
Well, don't expect any career prospects at GW.

>i.e. faggots getting jobs handed to them

It was a rhetorical question.

Already put my time in, sorry you're waiting til 65 to retire buddy.

>complaining

Telling someone not to complain is complaining, huh? I can see why you did trade work with your terrible literacy.

I can see why you work part time since you are more willing to talk about someone else's job instead of actually finding one for yourself.

Looks like he was right then. I dont know why you keep talking when your generation fucked everything up for everyone, and now you have the gall to act arrogant about it.

When you move out of mom's basement let us know.

>part time jobs aren't jobs

Stay in school, kids, or you end up bragging about yourself in arguments on Veeky Forums, even though a grown ass man should know better than trying to e-thug.

Do you do yiff?

>implying people can afford houses these days

$10,000 property tax and $2,500 monthly mortgage? No thank you.

What exactly is my generation?

>mom's basement

Sick meme gramps

Would you fuckers shut up and give the dude advice instead of shitposting?

Just remember next time you stroke your 2 inch dick, it could be me fucking the hot bitches in the video.

Advice? Wait and see if they call dummy. If they do, go sell your value in an interview. This isn't fucking rocket science.

If we assume a infinite amount of alternative realities, yeah

They advertise all their jobs online.

If there was no openings then you won't get a job.

Nah you only played the role of a cuck who only got to watch from the closet.

Cucks actually pay good money to me and a partner to treat them like shit.

Holy shit this thread is hilarious.

My potential employer didn't feel like "slaying bodies rah" was an applicable job skill. Grunts really are useless fucks

Whoa whoa whoa "webporn" is not the same as "male pornstar". These are important distinctions to make. Although I guess porn directors aren't exactly hiring you for your enormous vocabulary.

>implying the males in porn aren't ugly losers 99.9% of the time

Unless your name appears in the title of the film alongside the pornstar, it's probably not worth being jealous over. Good porn isn't viewed directly from websites anyway.

>he's a 2D elf rapist

Everyone who needs a job should just go to med school like I did :^)

What if they want their job so they can buy plastic toys instead of paying crippling med school debt?

>everyone talking about awesome jobs
>begs for scans and chinaman

I'd strongly suggest against this, as - barring VERY few exceptions - almost every GW store is a one-man shop that will expect you to have no life as you'll consistently be working retail five days a week during peak having-a-life hours (often Wed through Sun, 11am to 8pm your time except Sundays which are only 7 or 6). Your official job will also, practically, be entirely commission and if you fail to earn enough sales in your store you can probably kiss your ass goodbye with little warning.

That said, if you really want to go through with this: As said, practice how you plan to increase the company's sales. What plans do you have to make customers want to buy GW products? how much enthusiasm can you generate for the line? Do you plan to, in your own time, coordinate or run events to drive interest in the hobby (a store-level campaign, for example)?

Explain how you have the ability to commit your time to the hobby and work. You want them to believe you're a reliable person, that on the days they want their shop open you will be available to ensure that it is and how you won't be a burden on the rest of the region's staff.

It's not that crippling :^(

> Most places won't even hire you unless you've had prior working experience, usually 1-2 years or even more.

It's been like that for thirty years, yet people manage to get started.

Apply, apply, apply and you'll get lucky too. Make calls, do independent work, volunteer if applicable to your field. It sucks but eventually it works.

Wait, so you were like an apprentice when you started out? That's what trade work is, right? You start out as an apprentice for a trade then become a journeyman?

And you're talking shit to people who actually have real educations who can't find jobs because of oversaturation of BA's or because they're too qualified due to their master's?

Starting trade work as an apprentice is no different than being an intern. I don't think anyone here is whining about not being able to find an internship. You are clueless about today's actual job market.

t. employed person with an actual education

I know that, it was directed towards the faglords who were handed a job far longer than 30 years ago talking shit to the people that are doing all that stuff just because they're not gainfully employed yet.

It's kind of obvious they wouldn't be acting like such cunts if they had to go through all that work themselves when finding their first job, which they obviously didn't.

I was a security guard at GW's Tennessee factory for 5 years. AMA

Really?

Wagecucks are hilarious.

>my slavery is better than yours

How overweight are you?

Also, were they scared of grand larceny? How hard would it be to take a truck load of armies and get away? How is it all stored? Is it all in boxes and then loaded on trucks, or do they send it all out in small batches not worth stealing?

How much money is there at one time?

Go back /r9k/ robot.

Go back to work wagecuck.

I have some relatives who went to a state university back when the tuition was free who now can't understand how students end up with so much debt today while voting against extra funding for schools.

if that is what he did, he didn't "retire" at 31

he was forced out

hell even bankers who retire in their 30s do so either because their job has been given to a robot or because they embezzled enough to be a problem but not enough to be worth prosecuting and having all those cops swarming over the database

nope

it works less and less and in ten years? fuck, even China's going to be experiencing a lot of unemployment among the younger generations simply because it's cheaper to automate

i figure there'll be some culls, some wars, maybe a return to big states where everybody has nominal employment but the jobs are bullshit make-work

but short of a massive societal collapse, we're moving further and further away from full employment, and we've already moved most employment into service industries in the developed world, so either learn to wait tables and pour drinks or get ready to be unemployed your whole life

Be like me, go to law school.

I spend an hour making edits in word and bill $250.00 an hour and no one bats an eye. In fact, people are suspicious if I don't charge a lot, like this guy must be a shitty lawyer if he's inexpensive.

Even appointed jail clients I meet and plea out in 30 minutes pay $175.00 per case and I'm usually in and out in 20 minutes.

Working at a place you love as a hobby seems fun but when your fun becomes work, you tend to not want to do it in your free time.
