The interview went really well. The manager was super nice and asked easy questions. The whole thing was really quick and not stressful at all. I was super nervous because it was my first job and I stammered a lot under pressure, and I kept apologizing, but it all turned out great. The only reason I didn't get the job initially was because of a new policy that prevents them from hiring anyone under 16. I ended up getting the job secured and can start right after my birthday.
