4/8/2006 4:43:08 AM

Put down the bong, you will have to take a piss test.

4/8/2006 4:23:56 PM

Pretty much all places require a drug test nowaday.

4/8/2006 4:48:11 PM

weed is so high school

4/8/2006 4:51:44 PM

best buy sucks.

4/8/2006 7:37:16 PM

well, whether or not they suck is your opinion, but I need a job for the summer, so I applied.

4/8/2006 7:57:15 PM

i'm so considering this

what's the pay, generally?

4/8/2006 8:08:37 PM

It's retail,

so I'm guessing it's outstanding.

4/8/2006 10:01:43 PM

The Garner GM is supposedly a Nazi to work for. She yells at employees on the race track.

4/8/2006 11:37:07 PM

well I work in the garner best buy.....and she hasn't yelled at me......or at anyone that I know of....

I like working there and with most of the people I work with.

Sometimes it can get a bit on your nerves but what job can't?

The pay differs on expierence and position....

I do know we have part time spots open....so people apply!

P.S. If you know me personally make sure you put my name down on the referral list....just because...well I get a bonus...and don't mind sharing it, just be willing to work hard and have fun.

4/8/2006 11:45:00 PM

^^ no she isn't she's really cool to work for. very straight forward.

well I took the time to fill out the online application, i'm hoping I don't get shafted and never hear back about it. Maybe I should call them after a few days to check in if I don't hear anything. I need a job pretty soon.

4/9/2006 12:53:43 AM

i'm almost considering working there part time for a month, buying a bunch of shit & leaving. but i won't. so how about one of you who does get a job there lets me use the discount

4/9/2006 2:36:21 AM

People get fired for that stuff yo.

4/9/2006 9:43:16 AM

yeah, I heard about people trying to do that. i'm not going to sacrifice my job just so someone can get a discount. not to mention it's kind of a jackass thing to do to begin with.

4/9/2006 10:46:28 AM

how soon after going in do they make you take a drug test, i'm interested but i need to figure out how long i gotta be clean before going in

[Edited on April 9, 2006 at 12:45 PM. Reason : ^ and ^^- i wouldnt think it would be that hard if a friend gave 50 cash and said "get this for me"]

4/9/2006 12:45:11 PM

you've got to take one before you start working. After the second interview i think is when i took mine

4/9/2006 1:20:33 PM

^^Within 24 hours after your last interveiw (IE they decide to hire you). If you don't show within 24 hours, they can't hire you . . . ever. Usually they tell you to go the same day and schedule your interveiw in the morning accordingly.

4/9/2006 1:44:29 PM

The drug test is really just an IQ test. You go through a process of filling out an ap on-line, they may call you to interview a week or more later, and then there are generally 3 interviews that may be spread out over a period about a week. If you don't have the sense not to smoke up during that period of time, then you really are just too stupid to hire or you must really not want a job.

Best Buy is a great place to work as long as you can put up with some of the bullshit. My fiance and I were a two Best Buy income family for a long time. I started as a cashier and then worked in customer service and until I just went nutzo on a customer and gave my notice. However, my fiance has worked in 4 different departments, been a supervisor, and now works in the Geek Squad. Best Buy has brainwashed him, but I couldn't get out of there fast enough.

The employee discount is almost worth putting up with the bullshit. Our apartment is so hi-teched electronicked out that it is ridiculous.
