The job is for the local scout store, where boy scouts go for merit badges and stuff when they earn them. I think the interview went rather well. Being a life scout, and hence familiar with the stuff probably helped, and they mentioned that my height might help with stocking. Another neat thing is if I get hired, I'm not going to have to cut my hair, just keep it in a ponytail (I had it in one during the interview, I'm not stupid).
I had a problem with one question though. They asked what I'd do if I found a $20 bill on the ground. I said if I could see who obviously dropped it, I'd return it. If not, it's mine unless someone complains about losing a $20 bill. After all, I can't just ask who's it is
Yeah I agree with the donating thing, that's probably what they were looking for. However, I don't think it will break you, I mean they may say "hey...he's honest about it."
Employers also want honest. When you anwser like you did, you were being honest. Alot of times they don't belive you when you say you will donate the money and see that you lie to impress

I don't think that was the point of this thread.
I hope you get the job though, I can't seem to find one that'll call me back.
I've been looking ever since I was 16, but then again I don't have any prior works experience except for volunteer stuff totalling up to 2 weeks and a day. I barely got called. Just keep at it and you'll find something eventually
Oh, and about what Robert said about telling the truth: I was actually a bit scared they'd think I was a liar because I said I'd give it back to someone who obviously dropped it. After all, $20 is a lot of an unemployed person.
