I am a full time college student. I paint. I am majoring in art. I want to go to vet school. I like to go outside for walks. I have dogs. My mom gardens on the weekends. I prefer couponing. I just learned to paint in a new style. I am taking a painting class. The new style is called splatter painting. I am taking art classes for summer. I spend most of my time at different areas for each session.
I work as a salesman at the ford dealership and I enjoy it. I do think about chasing other passions. I have read mystery books. I am a bookworm. My mother is a cop. She hates gardening. She likes dogs. I garden. One career field that interests me is police work. If I become a cop, I would like to help bridge the gap between cops and people. I am prepared to become a cop. I do not have any pets. I am not experienced with dog training. I would like a Bloodhound as a dog. I am not great with dogs. I like to go to art museums and the library. I do not have money to go to the museum. I was named salesperson of the month. My income depends on my selling. I want to be a police officer. I moved back home.
Did you apply to work as a police officer already? I have not applied yet, I want to get in better physical shape first to ensure I pass the exams. Good luck with it. I hope you follow through on your ambition to bridge the gap. My dad was a cop and I believe he was a good man, but I have strong concerns about the institutional role of policing and the way they treat minority neighborhoods as occupied hostile territory. Yes, I have concerns as well.  However I do believe there are more good cops than bad.  Its a shame that bad cops ruin the reputation of the profession in general. In the meantime, how are things going at the dealership? Do you get both salary and commission? The dealership is going well. Yes I get both salary and commission.  However commission is only based on my sales and that is hit or miss. If you're a salesman, you must enjoy interacting with other people. Are most of the customers pleasant? Yes most of the customers are pleasant, however they are always suspicious that they arent getting a good deal and therefore some interactions are awkward at the least. I'm just glad they're not abusive. I've worked in customer service jobs like restaurants in the past and it's unbelievable what some of the public are willing to inflict on staff. Yes Ive heard horror stories.  What was the worst experience you had with a customer? There was one lady who came in at least weekly, and always -- I mean always! -- complained about the amounts of ingredients in her nachos order. Even though we weighed out everyone's ingredients exactly the same, the manager always remade the order to appease her, and finally gave her a 20% lifetime discount as a reward for being an asshole who made us lose money. I guess the boss was afraid she'd tell her asshole friends not to come in, and we'd miss out on the opportunity to lose even more money. Wow that is crazy.  I hope I never experience anything like that.  Any other crazy stories?
