I don't think you're seeing the genius of my idea. You can do deliveries on your bike. Carbon neutral, innit.

If the interviewer asks about interests or whatever, mention about being a big Cov fan. If they know anything serious about football, they’ll know what a big game for us it is - then they’ll know how much getting that job means to you.

No need for someone to ask why.

You just needed to say another date and time as you had arrangements made for that time.

****Quick Update****
I rang the store and spoke to the manager about changing the time of the interview, he asked my reasoning and I said its because I've agree to dog sit my sisters 3 German Shepherds. He seemed to understand and told me he'd call me back.
Now here is the interesting part. He agreed for me to have an interview over Zoom at the same time as previously agreed.
I'm in a bit of a predicament now, do I go to the match and sneak out to somewhere quiet at 1pm, how do I make myself look at home, does anyone have a green screen?
Or do I just do it from home, but then I still need the dogs in the background??
Getting stressed and starting to scratch.

At 1 you will find somewhere quiet. Speak to the stewards, they will help

Turn up at 12 and say you know it's 1 but you're super keen to get the job and you're happy to wait until the time. They'll see you early.

Oh fuck, just saw the update.

Should never have made up some mad lie. Either noice cancelling headphones with a zoom background in the loos now or call one off.

With how much is riding on the game, ask Doug to push kick off back 15 minutes. Then engineer a 2-2 draw (maybe).

The only way I can see out of this is to stop the Halfords managers getting into work, even then they may be able to coordinate the zoom interview from their homes. It's a risky strategy but you just might pull it off.

Job got to come first.
If you go to the match and we lose, you will be even more gutted at losing out twice.

You’re not going to get your dream job, end of. Now get you arse up the ground and watch the footy.
sell drugs like most people in Coventry or go on benefits or both. This game is more important than a 9-5 Monday through Sunday . If you get the job your fucked and will only see midweek games your choice just saying

The interviewer won’t turn up because he’s realised that thete is a big match on and has gone to watch it.

Sorry for the delay. The reception isn't the best in The Cherry Tree, I've had to come outside.
I'm yet to decide mate. I've got my bike with me and a change of clothes in a bag for life. I've given myself until 11.45 to decide.

Please can you go for the job. I popped my front wheel on my BMX at Wolverhampton skate park. I don’t get pocket money for another 2 weeks and need it fixed for the big BMX meet next week.

Surely once the club posts the team at 11.30 you can decide. I'm being serious mate don't prevaricate you'll regret it later.

@peteCCFC did you get the job? There are even people in the USA that want to know, this has gone viral. Maybe there is a TV series in it, maybe someone here knows Ryan Reynolds. The suspense is killing me.

Lads, I didn't fucking get it
According to the manager “You don’t have reliable transportation”, fucking prick. I only live 14 miles away and my bike is modern with gears and suspension.
Such judgemental arrogant pricks in Halfords. Don't know why I bothered.
Roll on Friday
