    Be confident. Your application was selected for a reason and they wouldn’t call you in if they weren’t interested in offering you a job. Dress for the position and be sure to frame every answer positively no matter what. If it was a shitty thing, explain what you learned from it and how you’re implementing what you learned.

    It's going well. Thank you for asking.
    because I don't believe in the cause.
    I mean, I'm not opposed to it but I won't commit to it, either.

    I was brought up in a southern baptist home. From an early age I was taught the lessons in the Bible, and the lessons that stuck the most were the teachings of Jesus and his compassion and care for the least in society. I had an internal early hesitation to old testament books and I used to be paralyzingly afraid of Revelation and the idea of eternity and the rapture. I believe my severe dedication and expectation of a polite society and for everyone to follow the golden rule and have a caring, compassionate, and empathetic mind and heart has set me up for disappointment. I ultimately believe people have the ability to be good and polite, but it's easier to be rude, selfish, apathetic, and unaware. This causes me to have feelings of disappointment and anger when I see others acting rudely, selfishly, or cruelly. Of course I can't expect others to always behave politely and adhere to common sense social rules and norms, honestly, I can't even do it myself. But I try really hard to do so. And yeah, I get worked up over it, and you all give me grief, but I really believe most of the rules I have and expect of others come from a place of politeness and care for others. Some of them maybe ridiculous, but, like the shrubbery rule, I believe that those outward actions or states of being are a reflection of the inner person and their natural tendencies, habits, and conditions. I also had my heart break pretty bad twice over which has caused me to exhibit "once bitten twice shy" mannerisms, cynical perspectives, and self-sabotaging tendencies. I understand that ultimately my outward appearance, interactions, and mannerisms maybe coarse, harsh, abrasive, exhausting, and off putting at first, but I believe that as people get to know me they understand that there is a flip side to that and I can be a very caring, loyal, and dependable friend.


    I would either make it look like a mugging or hold them at gun point and coerce them into writing a note and hanging themselves.
