3 days as an "INTERCEPT INTERVIEWER"

Sep 9-11, 2021

Stationed just outside the door of the store, I approached customers as they were leaving. I asked them to partake in an interview about their experience, using my own tablet. I also had to front $10 per qualified candidate. I followed all covid distance guidelines & disinfected the android tablet after each use. I also recorded daily quotas for the event report.

Liquor promo at Good Ole Reliable

This was not a good day for tasting. First, the store was all but dead. A total of about 50 people, only 20 of which sampled, came through the 3 hours I was there. And only 1 bottle was sold. 

Second, there was not 1, but 2 other tastings at the same damn time. A few were already tipsy by the time they came to me. Others didn't want to mix tequila and vodka. 

 

Tequila competition

AND

Wine competition

Another validation of why I don't work commission-only gigs.
