Today,  on yet another non-Church

Today,  on yet another non-Church going Sunday morning (I am a bit sinus-clogged and sluggish,  which may well be evidenced in this entry),  I am bummed about how the job market is.  I went to Dell on Thursday and took a series of “tests” to determine my “Sales Skills”,  and I failed a test that took you through a series of simulated customer calls for a ficticious “customer order line” staffing company who took care of three different companies online sales.  I scored “too low” to proceed to the interview stage.  It seems I fell short on my “investigative skills”.  Apparently,  I didn’t “open up the binder” to consult on every little detail,  and apparently this is what they were “filtering” in this test.  Perhaps the system also filtered me out for “pressure tactics” (which I don’t use).  Perhaps the system is right.
