Interview
Called me in and I had another interview that day, Manager latter told me if I hadn't agreed to his desired time he would have never called me back. Showed up to interview was very short, asked me to speak in spanish we discussed past experience and how flexible my schedule was, they need you to be open because they will not accommodate to school or other
personal problems. Bottom line They want you to be willing to sale, look intimidating to run(collect) on customers who don't pay but be friendly enough to move merchandise.
