Hey, /adv/. Just wanted to thank you guys.
I was on here a few weeks ago. Told you all that I got my M.S. in Physics, and that I had applied for more than 200 jobs with no luck. Followed your advice and got a job within two weeks. You guys are the best.
Do you guys have any tips for my first day?

thats good advice yeh. was it exampled like this:
"some advice with job hunting. say you are applying for starbucks or dunkin donuts, and they want barista experience. go to your resume, go to your 'volunteer experience' section, and put down that you have 1 or 2 years barista experience while doing chairty dinners back in highschool.
if they call you into an interview simply go online and type in 'barista training video' and that sort of thing. whatever machine they have, claim you used a different model. they will teach you how to use the machine regardless, but this gives you an in.
reverse engineer that concept for any job you apply for. i claimed to work with quickbooks before i got my current job. total lie. but i got the job and learned quickbooks overnight."
