Andy’s the an assistant manager at the moment, but he’s been promoted so they held interviews for his replacement. It was, quite honestly, the worst interview I’d ever done. I was the a last to go in and I was really nervous by then. The Qquestions were really easy, but I didn’t answer at all well. Needless to say, I didn’t get the job, but I’ll try again next time. I shouldn’t complain because I like my job and the people I work with.
