We’re sorry
The job that you are applying for is not available. Please try again later.’
I’m browsing Workopolis for jobs and I come across one for Telus.
The first thing that pops into my mind is “Hey, I can sell cell phones, that’s not too bad. And hell, I’m a Telus customer too”. So I continue reading expecting to see that it requires previous experience (which it does) but it also requires “Post secondary education – College diploma or University degree”. At this point my mind completely swings around, because honestly most of the Telus employees don’t know a cell phone from a hole in the ground (as you can see if you check out some of my earlier posts). I could totally confuse a cell phone for a hole in the ground twice as good as most of them can. Bastards. Maybe I need to go back to school and take something easy. Like knitting. I’ll get a degree in Yawnology, that’ll show em.
I could always get a job at 7-Eleven instead. I have to say, for such a dumbed down job, this ad makes it sound pretty good. They could have simply put “Free Slurpies!” though and I’d have been impressed.
