I GOT A JOB INTERVIEW $15/HR IN THE RGV!!


I was browsing through some jobs when I came across Vector Marketing Company that offered students summer jobs at $15 an hour. Obviously it seemed too good to be true but I decided to fill out an application with them anyways. I mean I have nothing to lose right? 

I filled out a basic online application that didn't ask for much except my contact information, name, and a question of whether I liked working with people. I decided to enter my previous experience of working with customers in my other jobs

After I filled in the application, I got a message that read "you need to contact the office to setup an appointment for a job interview"  I decided to do some research about this company so I could better prepare for my job interview. I searched online and found several articles about Vector Marketing Company. I found out that Vector Marketing Company was a knife selling marketing company. 

Yes, I said that Right!! KNIFE SELLING marketing company. I thought to myself well this is interesting. It turns out that they sell knifes from CUTCO CUTLERY. Not surprising that I found most articles about Vector Marketing scams. Supposedly they target high school and college students that are too naive to know any better and make them believe that they can actually get paid $15 and hour with them but there is a catch. 

The next day in the morning I received a phone call by a girl who claimed to be Jennifer and she presented herself to be from Vector Marketing. She said she was calling to setup an interview appointment. I was already skeptic about this company so I asked lots of questions. 

Some of the questions I asked her were if I was going to be required to purchase anything and she said "no its a guaranteed employment opportunity but we only have until today so you have to come in today only". She did mention that it was a door to door sales job so I asked if I will get paid for each sale I make or per hour like it stated in the job offering. 

She proceeded to explain that the job was hourly based and I was guaranteed a job but only if I came in today. I decided to accept the interview invite. One thing I did notice about this lady that was strange was her voice was almost like if she was whispering. It was very low toned and not like her voice was like that but when you purposely lower your voice when you don't want anyone to hear what you are saying. 

I decided to keep my appointment anyways. What do I have to lose? I saw this as an investigative adventure..lol! I'm already aware that it could be to good to be true and there might be a catch but its interesting to find out what this is about. Besides whatever happens, I can always blog about them and expose the TRUTH..lol.

I will go to the interview to do some investigation but as soon as they ask me for any type of money or for me to sign anything, I'm out the door!!! Keep up with my blog and I'll keep you posted about how my job interview went. Wish me luck!!

INNOCENT AS CAN BE


Trying brush it off like it don't bother me

Trying to make it seem like love just ain't for me

But deep down inside I know

I just wanna go back to the days when i was just a kid

Innocent as can be butterflies were all real to me

The fairytale life was part of my dreams

A naive young girl who just wanted to believe

That the world was mine

And true love was real

I was Afraid to be alone

Just wanting to feel complete

Fearful of the unknown

I settled for defeat

I gave my heart, my freedom, my life

All for a fantasy world filled with love

I couldn't accept that love wasn't for me

I felt my calling in life was to fall in love 

With prince charming and live happily

Little did I know that life is a mystery

As I look back and reminisce 

looking in the mirror at the windows of my soul

I see a different person

I wish i could go back and talk to the old me

I would let her know that life is not about living in a fantasy

Its about following your Dreams

Its ok to be alone 

Love is not for everybody

But God does have a plan

And that plan is to strengthen me

Even though I posses acceptance of the life God has chosen for me

I do admit that I still  go back to that young girl that haunts me

She is still a part of me

Its a good thing though cause one thing I admire about the old me

Was the ability to dream and imagine the unimaginable

Although the new me is more determined 

But usually only sees whats tangible

Throughout this revolutionary life changing process 

My only true friends have been God, my music and poetry

There's a place where I can express my thoughts, my feelings, 

And truly live out my dreams

Without being judged for not being part of the team

Where expressions, thoughts, and Love flows within streams

without even making physical contact

And where even passionate Anger flourishes from within 

Like A soaring light Beam

Ready for Attack

ARE YOU THERE GOD? -Vane D Poetry

Are u there GOD? I need You
I see u but I cant find You

I hear You but I don't Listen
I keep searching for things and people
That I think I'm missing
But people and things cant fulfill my needs
And everyday I'm hungry and so are my seeds
Each day I keep looking for something to cure the emptiness
That spreads like a rapid fire causing a painful death
Are u there God? I see you but I am blind
I found u yet I cant Find
Because all I see is the human world
When I should be embracing the spiritual world
I keep looking for compassion and strength
When ur always here with open arms expanding the lengths
Cause there's no limits to the love you give your children
Why do we keep searching for comfort and love
When everything we need is here with us through you
Why do we keep searching the truth
When the truth is you
