Themakingofagod Posted at 12:12 pm on Jan. 9, 2009 The purpose of those tests are to find out your personality.  Why don't you just answer what you would do. There's no point to lying on those tests.  If you answer the questions more toward trying to tell them what they want to hear, you'll create standards you can't live up to, and being fired looks worse on an application than not getting a job. neotreo Posted at 12:12 pm on Jan. 9, 2009 Quote: from Gaelle at 3:11 pm on Jan. 9, 2009 I don't, but I definitely have some bad memories about KMart...my then boyfriend didn't come from the best part of town, so his mom would shop there frequently. They didn't have that much money and that was fine with me. But seriously, they were treating people like criminals. there were men at the door checking your purchases while looking at your receipt. they do that at walmart too Gaelle Posted at 12:11 pm on Jan. 9, 2009 I don't, but I definitely have some bad memories about KMart...my then boyfriend didn't come from the best part of town, so his mom would shop there frequently.
