"You're going to get your friend in trouble, you know." you say. The girls shut up for a moment. "I'm here for a job interview. He has to let me through. It's really important - if I don't make it there, the bouncer is going to get shit for it."
"Ohhhh." The girls stop puffing up. "Sorry."
The bouncer smiles at you. "Thanks, kid. Go ahead. Boss is in the basement."
The nightclub is packed and hopping. You still have a few minutes before the interview.
Do you:
1) Grab a drink and get a feel for the place
2) Head to your interview
A drink sounds tempting, but you decide to be responsible and show up to your interview a little early. Maybe you'll get some extra brownie points!
You head down to the basement. It's quiet and cool down here, but you can hear the thudding of the bass above you. You see your destination right away.
You open the door with a big smile. Sure enough, there's Paul, sitting at a chair and filling out some forms. You didn't expect him to look like... this, though.
He looks stunned. "I... I lost track of time. I'm sorry, I..."
What do you say?
1) I'm so sorry!
2) Close the door on him.
3) (SHELTERED) Were... you in an accident?
4) (Fake calmness) Hello, I'm Frances. I'm here for the interview.
5) Start screaming.
You're not sure you pulled off the calm look, but Paul seems to calm down.
"Look, if you're sweet enough to stand the sight of this mug, you're hired. But I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable. Do you want to learn more about the job from me, or my business partner? She's uh, she's way prettier."
1) "It's okay, you can handle it."
2) "I'd like to meet your partner."

You can Handle it
Though i'm tempted to ask if he was in an accident... Poor dude... Probably was caught in a fire, right?
"That's fine, you'll meet Lucille soon enough." Paul seems legitimately happy that you haven't run away screaming and that you're willing to spend time with him. "Tell you what, kid, drinks are on me tonight. If you work here, you should know the atmosphere, so have a good time upstairs, all right?"
"Thanks." You say. "So, what's the job - you mentioned delivering things?"
"Right. Nothing illegal, but you're going to have to take my word on that, because we don't want you opening the packages. For instance, this package goes to an older woman north of here in a nice, quiet neighbourhood." Paul puts a cardboard box sealed with tape on the desk.
"Just deliver that before sunrise - and well before sunrise, not when the sun's creeping up and the sky is turning pink. That's all we need from you."
"I can handle that." You say.
"Great. I really have to finish this paperwork, but will you come see me tomorrow before you pick up the next package?"
