Would it be alright to ask my old coach to be a job reference if I haven't seen them in 4 years?
I had an interview today (for hopefully my first job) at a clothing store and they said they need some references to continue. Would it be alright if I asked my old cross-country/track coach from highschool to be a job reference?
I did pretty well in Cross Country, but im not sure he would remember me.
I graduated in 2010 and did track/cross-country in 2008.

1 AnswerLaw & Legal9 years agoWould it be kinda messed up to leave this job if I was able to find one I liked better?
I was hired at the fast food place Del Taco as a cashier and had my first day this monday. I was trained a little bit on the cash register, but I still dont feel too comfortable because the pace is kinda quick (They had be practice the register during the lunch rush) & I'm also somewhat quiet/shy. The manager said that I could let him know if I dont think I'm right for the job. They also want me to memorize all the combos on the menu too...
I actually cancelled a interview at walgreens last week, and I think that I should try to get that job again because it fits my personality better. I am quiet, laidback kind of guy and I am having doubts about this fast food job.
Of course I wouldn't quit the fast food job until I got another job,but...
Would it be rude to quit now after just one day of filling out paperwork and some training? Should I wait & quit in 2-4 weeks?

6 AnswersPhilosophy9 years agoHow can i catch up & make my social skills better?
I am behind others in social skills. What are some ways I could catch up to other people my age that are social? I'm 20, no job...but I am looking, no friends/gf, I go to a cc. I try to talk in my classes and make friends, but can't get past small talk and actually hang out with people. Im way behind others socially, I had a few friends in h, but we never really Hung out too much, I never went to parties or anything either...so many regrets..I hate being a whiny little b*tch. How can I get better at being social without being too uncomfortable?

2 AnswersPhilosophy9 years agoWhy is it taking me so long to get my first job?
Why is it taking me so long to get my first job?
I know the economy is meh. , but I have been applying on and off for the past 2 years to jobs at places like target, walmart, and even fast food places. I have filled out probably 50+ applications online & in person at restaurants too. I had 2 interviews at fast food places and I cant help but think that other people got hired instead of me because of their over-the-top personalities or insider connections.
I am a slightly shy, somewhat athletic 20 yr. old dude and I KNOW that I can do these jobs like cashier, busser, team member, etc.. I apply to all these places and I know I should follow-up....& I do follow-up sometimes,but I am just not good at talking to these managers that always seemed annoyed. It makes me sad because I'm missing out on these jobs that I can do, but I can't get them because my social skills are a little behind others i think.
I need a job badly so I can get my life started & stop feeling depressed. It sucks not going to college, not having friends, or not even being able to date girls or hang out with a new set of friends either. sigh. :(
sorry if this is kinda long, but i dont have alot of people to talk to right now.
2 AnswersFood Service9 years agoDo girls feel this way too?
Im a 20 year old guy with no gf :( Sometimes I get so horny that Im like literally pacing the room and almost like humping the wall and the couch...ugh. So much bottled up sexual energy...the weird thing is I never really thought all that much about sex in hs, but ever since I turned 19...my sexual energy has been through the roof!
anybody else ever feel like being young & horny is a blessing and a curse?

10 AnswersPhilosophy9 years agoIs it uncommon for people to have a degree of control in their dreams?
When I dream I can say what I want, act how I want, make choices, etc.. i cant like make stuff appear or anything , but I can actively think in a dream and make choices. Its not like a movie where you simply watch and can't do anything else. How common is it for people to be able to control themself in a dream?
