I can't remember the lyrics but he talks about how he was in the military and how he will work hard for them and that he wants this job.

5 Amazing Job Interviewing Tips


  • That's "Cost of Livin'" by Ronnie DunnEverything to know about me is written on this page
    A number you can reach me
    My social and my age
    Yes, I served in the army
    It's where I learned to shoot
    Eighteen months in the desert
    Pourin' sand out of my boots
    No, I've never been convicted of a crime
    I could start this job at any time

    I got a strong back
    Steel toes
    I rarely call in sick
    A good truck
    What I don't know
    I catch on real quick
    I work weekends if I have to
    Nights and holidays
    Give you forty and then some
    Whatever it takes
    Three dollars and change at the pump
    The cost of livin's high and goin' up

    I put Robert down as a reference
    He's known me all my life
    We attend the same church
    He introduced me to my wife
    I gave my last job everything
    Before it headed south
    Took the shoes off of my children's feet
    Food out of their mouths
    Yesterday my folks offered to help
    But they're barely gettin' by themselves

    I got a strong back
    Steel toes
    I rarely call in sick
    A good truck
    What I don't know
    I catch on real quick
    I work weekends if I have to
    Nights and holidays
    Give you forty and then some
    Whatever it takes
    Three dollars and change at the pump
    The cost of livin's high and goin' up

    I'm sure a hundred others have applied
    But rumor has it you're only takin' five

    I got a strong back
    Steel toes
    I'm handy with a wrench
    There's nothin' I can't drive
    There's nothin' I can't fix
    I work sunup
    To sundown
    Ain't too proud to sweep the floors
    The bank has started callin'
    And the wolves are at my door
    Three dollars and change at the pump
    The cost of livin's high and goin' up

  • Cost of Livin by Ronnie Dunn! I love that song, it's something we can all relate too.

Job Interview Questions: Leaving a phone message to interviewer after job interview instead of thank you letter okay?

My interview was OKAY but not GREAT. Plus I came 12 min late! So I was told that a thank you letter can do damage control but I don't have her e-mail and post mail seems to archiac and long. I only have her phone number so why not leave a nice message on her answering machinenic

Recommended Answer:
Don't call her.

Letters are the only way to go, preferably hand-written and snailmailed.

A thank-you call is more damaging than doing nothing. It shows you don't know how the "thank you" part of the interview works.

BTW, if you showed up late you aren't going to get the job anyways so it's kind of a moot point. All the recruiters I know never hire people who are late. If you can't manage your time for something as important as an interview, what kind of job are you going to do?

Know How Important the Job Interview Questions Are


  • I don't think that is the best idea. Good bet is to drop a hand-written thank you note in the mail. It shows a personal touch but come across as overboard.

Job Interview Questions: Obviously pregnant with job interview tomorrow, should I bring it up?

I am in education and I have a job interview tomorrow. I am 8 1/2 months pregnant, so its obvious. However, if I get this job I wont be taking maternity leave bc we are in education and the baby is being born at the beginning of the summer break. However, should I mention that fact and the fact that I do want to work and get this job, even though I will have a newborn. I am thinking honesty is the best policy, what do you think?

Job Interview Essentials



Recommended Answer:
there's no need to bring it up to them but this also depends on the job as some jobs such being a vet can be harmful to your unborn baby due to some of the chemicals they use also hairdressers like to be informed because there are some chemicals which can be harmful to your baby

Prepare for a Great Job Interview With These Questions and Answers


  • Yes be honest! Since everyone has summer break off in education that would give you guys time to take care of the baby, then you can find a baby sitter for your child. I would explain it to them and show that you will not be missing work just because you have a baby along the way. That everything is already sorted out and that everything is under control and everything else that they would want to hear!

    GL on getting the job, and congrats on your new baby!

    Like the second answer, really only bring it up if they bring it up!

  • I say to try and bring up the fact that you want to start work ASAP and that will tell them 1) you will be having the baby(Congrats!!!) over the summer and 2) that you will be ready for the school year in August!
    Good luck and I hope you get it:)

  • i was 7 months pregnant and went to an interview. i didnt say anything about being pregnant... i thought it was obvious. but after i started to work is when she found out i was pregnant!! but you should tell them that way they know you cant do certain things.

  • yes, agree to let them know. It is important aspect to mention because it may affect your availability for them. Just let them know what you will do to ensure you will be available to work their schedule.
    Good luck:)

  • by the sounds of it, you dont need to "bring it up". they will. just tell them your plans for when bubs comes and hope for the best. good luck x

  • Yes, I agree with you. Its best to let them know

  • Do not bring it up, if they are smart they will not mention it either. Just curious who is going to raise your child after 3 months old?
