Artis: Got Job Advice?


I'm not looking for a desk job or a retail job. Feel me? But I do want some extra cash in my pockets so I don't have to ask my dad all the time for money.
 
Let me lay it out for you. I gotta live with 3 sisters that tell me what to do all the time. I'm used to it by now. You wanna tell me what to do too? I'm looking for suggestions. In the comment section below drop me a line with some tips on what I should (or shouldn't) do on a job interview. All tips are appreciated but let's keep it clean folks.

Holla!

Please be on time for your interview, and no matter where you go for an interview from fast food to a law office always dress professional.

Posture and manners is a great key for an interview.

sup artist here are some idei's u could use. wich u might not to get a job respct listen fallow rulez

You know what you got it made at least your daddy try to be in your life right now i had to grow up without a father and he didnt even try to make ammence between us not even an effort for birthday cards nothing no letters nothing, you is so damn lucky that your dad still cares, you think hustling is a job, but you gots to remember, it also has 2 alternatives, jail or dead. Not to be mean but your mom and dad did have problems and at least your dad is making the effort to be there for yall and you juss dissing him like that you going make him leave or kick you out of his house the girls are not too bad not as bad as you are but hey his house his rule you dont like it move the F**** on then and stop wasting his time to try and be there for you. thats what i see girls try a little bit to understand your dad and the shoes he is trying to fill please be more affectionate to him not juss for his money but support him as best as you can cause the way i see it your brother is a lost case i watch yall show every time and i hope yall can make some kind of pack to try and help him out aiight. See yall on the show.....

First of all make sure you're dressed nicely. Don't go walking in there with baggy jeans and a t-shirt on or anything. First impressions are crucial so you need to make sure you make the right ones. Also, make sure you don't arrive late. You should actually show up a couple minutes early. Make sure you speak properly. Don't try to act fake and pretend to be something you're not but use actual English when you go in for an interview. Make sure you express that you're willing to work. Making comments about how you really don't want to work and stuff makes people question whether you'll be dedicated to the job or lazy and not doing anything. Other than that just use commen sense.

Always be at least 10 minutes early to any interview
Talk, and dress professinal(includes pulling up your pants,a belt wouldnt hurt either)
Look and feel confident(eye contact)
Smile show personality
Being honest and yourself is always good but choose your words carefully for example Never tell the hiring manager "im dont really want to work but im looking to get paid ya feel me?" i mean lets be real you have to work hard to make money even if you really dont want to (never show it) saying that shows you obviously dont want a job (a job comes with work), or put the work in (dont waste peoples time)


To get to the top it takes hard work...it takes hard work to get to the point where you dont have to put a lot of work in to get paid, ya feel me...
A great follower makes an even greater leader (it starts at home first)
Good Luck

get a job at a fast food restraunt.

I can tell you like this you shouldn't try to be to hood on a job interview and plus you should act a little bit more respectful and plus you have to pay attention at all times or they are not going to take you you serious when you are at the work place your attitude should change
p.s.
I love you artis

dude you are lazy man

You first need to lose that ugly attitude you have, because no one owes you anything.So what you live with "3 LITTLE GIRLS", you have to be your own man. You claim you don't need nobody but you still ask you father for money. As far as you getting a job, I dont' see that happeneing in the future for you because you are a LAZY BUM. If someone hire you for a job I feel sorry for them.
GROW UP LITTLE BOY AND HELP KEEP THAT HOUSE CLEAN YOU LIVE THERE TO!!!!!!!

His father needs to set an example and teach him how to properly interview. That just makes me CRINGE..................... It should be against the law to say. YAM SAYIN!!!

Yo just keep it original...dress casual(slacks, shirt, tie, shoes), bring pen and paper just in case you need to take notes(wierd right but ay you wouldn't believe how many ppl do this), go to sleep at a decent hour so when you get up you won't look all bummy when you get to the interview(saggy eyes, yawning in the interview...yo that's so rude), speak up and let them know yo i want this and i got what it takes, speak clear don't use any slang!!!

p.s. when you go into your interview shake their hand firm but not firm enough to break it and look them in their eyes at all times
don't dose off(meaning go into lala land)
hope my advice helps you out..

i think first you should give your dad more respect yo but as for getting a job you just gotta go in there at lease acting like you know aloteven if you dont.........

THE FAT ONE IN THE KITCHEN BAREFOOTED WHEN FOOD AND ALL TYPES OF NASTY STUFF ON THE FLOOR TO QUIT AND GO IN HER ROOM PUT ON SNEAKERS TO GET INTO BED WHAT KIND OF SUGAR HONEY ICE TEA IS THAT. I DON'T EVEN GET INTO BED WITH THE CLOTHES I WEAR IN THE STREETS. AND YOU WACK AS HELL... FIRST YOU TRY TO PLAY YOUR POPS AND HIS MUSIC THEN I SEE YOU RIDING HIS COAT TAIL ON THE LATE LATE SHOW. WHAT HAPPEN YOU REALIZE YOU NEED HIM??? WHEN YOU WAS THE ONE SAYING OVER AND OVER AGAIN HOW YOU DON'T NEED HIM AND NOT USING HIS NAME TO GET A FOOT IN THE RAP GAME AND YOU SAID HE AIN'T NO REAL RAPPER. IF I WAS HIM I'LL PUT ALL YALL LITTLE DIRT BUMS OUT OF MY HOUSE. I WOULDN'T WANT TO WORLD TO KNOW I EVEN CREATED SOMETHING THAT UGLY. YALL NASTY LAZY DISRESPECTFUL AND DON'T APPRECIATE ANYTHING. NO WONDER YALL LOOK THE WAY YALL DO. THEY SURE AIN'T NO RUN'S KIDS.

disrespectful life will be short if you do not respect your elders.

you are a lazy ass you have a nasty attitude no respect for your dad and when he was trying to get you to help him with his catering business you dissed him man that not cool, i mean what are you doing with yourself school, jobs what

This was my first episode to have watched and I was shocked at how you and your sisters treat your father.I mean all of you act so ungratefull.Not one but everybody. You want advice on getting a job huh.First of all loose the slack in your pants and please put on a belt.Open your mouth and stop talking like your breath stink.Stop acting like everything is a joke.Back to your attitude,loose it because it will not get you far.Your dad said it best,he can't rap for the rest of his life and you can;t depend on him for the rest of yours.You're the only son so act like it and another thing spend some quality time with your dad.

dummy, you can't even talk right let alone answer phones . look here get out and get you a job , that's if somebody would be nice enough to hire you . i would send you home to your mama or let juvunile deal with u . you don't do nothing that man ask u. i don't even feel like talkin any more because you probaly can't even read what i don wrote u.

First of all, I think you're all spoiled brats with no respect for your father. At least three of you are grown, I would kick you out and make you get jobs. I wouldn't give you any money? I'm a female and I feel like if you're not in the military or going to school you would need to find a new address. I don't know if he was an absentee father. If so, it may explain the tension you all have between him. Truthfully, whether he was there before or not, he's there now. You say you don't want a retail or deskjob. Do you have a diploma? What was your ac #&@% ulative g.p.a. in high school? Money doesn't fall out of trees. How do you plan to support yourself? Please don't say by rapping. You must have backup plans in case the rap thing doesn't work out for you. I would suggest going to a trade school, if you're not interested in college. You must be able to follow before you can lead. Listen to your father, respect your father, and most importantly love your father unconditionally.

ARTIS I THINK YOUR ASS IS LAZY. YOU TALK BACK AND THINK YOU KNOW EVERYTHING AND DONT KNOW #&@% . IF I WAS YOUR FATHER I WOULD HAVE KNOCKED YOUR ASS OUT BY NOW. HOW ARE YOU GONNA BE REAL ABOUT GETTING A JOB AND YOU GO TO THE INTERVIEW WITH SOME JEANS ON? I MEAN COME ON NOW. AND THEN YOU ARE LATE ON TOP OF THAT...BEING REAL ITS THAT TYPE OF ATTITUDE AND BEHAVIOR THAT MAKES IT TEN TIMES HARDER ON THE NEXT BLACK MAN THAT GOES LOOKING FOR A JOB THAT IS SERIOUS ABOUT IT...I MEAN US OUT IN THE REAL WORLD HAVE TO WORK REAL JOBS, WHICH IS WHAT YOU WOULD HAVE TO DO IF YOU WASNT THE SON OF COOLIO. BUT EVEN STILL YOU SEE HIS MONEY AINT ALL THAT LONG ANYMORE EITHER BECAUSE HE IS DOING REAL WORK LIKE CATERING. YOU NEED TO GET OFF YA ASS AND GET A PLAN, GO TO SCHOOL, OR FIND A JOB OR DO SOMETHING PRODUCTIVE. I MEAN GO TO JOB CORP, THE MILITARY OR SOMETHING. YOU ARE ON THE PATH OF NOTHINGNESS...WHICH MEANS IF YOU KEEP TRYIN TO BE ALL BAD ASS THEN YOU WILL END UP NOT WANTING #&@% AND NOT HAVING #&@% ...

You need to move out and get your own place!

Artis,
Having your Dad pay for everything is not healthy. Do you remember how proud of you he was when you went out to get a job with no arguments? You got a job. However it didn't last long, but you went out and put your foot in the water and got it wet. Just think if you found a job that more suited you!! That first honest to god paycheck, $ you earned on your own. It is the most wonderful feeling to have earned your own money and not had it handed to you. I have to work for my cash. A single Mother with 3 kids in a little Iowa town, it has been hard. I'd like to see you and your Sister's try to make it in the real world, in some little town where you actually have to work to live.
Take care.

Sincerly,

Kelly Everhart

LOL but i can say first impressions are a must when it comes to gettnig a job! even going in and getting the application! make sure you leave with a goood impression on thee manager!....and just to thro it in there....becarefree08 is the aim! and myspace e-mail!!!! hit me C U T i E!
<3 Reyna F. Baby!

What up Big Artis,

First let me tell you that its cool watching y'alls show. I really respect that your dad is trying to make good. I know that you have your own feelings about this and you are entitled to feel that way. But what's most important and what you need to understand is that nobody is perfect.. and as long as he is making an effort that is what matters most. Cause like many people my pops wasn't around. So as you grow just try and remember that, cause it's important. You should also try and talk to yo dad about whatever you may be mad at him about..just to get some type of understanding.

Regarding a job, i think your dad gave you the best advice with the temp agency. One thing you can do...is find an agency that caters to what you want to do and do a little reading about the field. And for a regular job interview do a little homework to find out what it is they are doing up there. Then you can tell them you want the job using "their language".

So stay strong bro, and trip not on these nameless, faceless mofos on here talking #&@% . You are going to need your dad more and more as you go thru yo adult life so try and do your part to maintain an open line.

Yup,
-'Lil

What'sup Artis,
1st Off I think the show is hot BUT NOT AS HOT AS YOU LOL=). I dont really got no advice about what to do wit your sisters cuz really ima big sister myself. I can give you sum prospective YO DAD AND SISTERS ALL DEY REALLY DOIN IS LOOKIN OUT FOR YOU CUZ THEY LOVE YOU. I DONT THINK YOU LAZY AT ALL YOU JUST NEED A GOOD WOMEN TO TAKE CARE OF YOU LIKE ME ID TAKE REAL GOOD CARE OF YO SEXY ASS. BUT YEAH YOU SHUD GET TO KNOW ME BETTER SO YOU DONT HAVE TO BLOG FOR ADVICE YOU CAN JUST HIT ME UP AT 330 703 8721 OR ON MY MYSPACE WWW.MYSPACE.COM/KIRA_GRAHAM
-ITTE ILY BABY HOLA

Artis, for any interview you need to be professional when you did recieve your first job the cell phone needs to be off no talking #'s off of your boss'clients. You need to realize that work is work and it provides you the things you need but since everything has been given to you, you have no respect for anything or the value of a buck! My advice is try to better yourself some other way intead of just complaining even if its a job at Mcdonalds its a start to making your way on your own if you dont like dads rules move the F out the real world is not that much fun but everyone should experiance that sometime. Good luck and be a little more head smart in whatever you do peace.

I think you should just do you.. and find something that you really like but as for the makin money part real estate would be a good job cause you get PAID big time MONEY!! ya digg.

YOU BLESSED WITH A WEALTHY AND CARING FAMILY.YOU SHOULD STOP LETTING YOUR TOUNG GET THE BEST OF YOU. I ONLY NO WHAT I SEE ON T.V SO I AINT TRYNNA GET ALL IN URS..WITH ALL DO RESPECT THAT IS YO DAD EVEN IF HE SAYIN SOMETHIN YOU AINT FELLIN THE TWO OF YOU ARE MEN TRY AND TALK IT OUT RATHER THAN YELL..AND IF HE ON DAT BULL LET IT GO IN ONE EAR AND OUT THE OTHER BUT JUST RESPECT HIM AS A MAN AND LET HIM POINT OUT HOW HE FELL..GOD WORKS WONDERS PRAY FA DA MANN LOL AND BY THE WAY YOUR VERY HANDSOME I WISH YOU WELL-TANISHA F BABY!!

artis first of all you are so hot and you have a cute smile. Anyway if you say you want to be a rapper maybe you should intern for people in the entertainment world or you could easily ask your dad to ask some of his industry friends if you could work for them that way you would be around something you want to do, and it would keep you interested and active, besides it could help you get a taste of what the industry is like. Its beneficial!

i think you should find a job that fits u sumthing u like 2 do not nothin boring but maybe work at a fastfood resturant or a sneaker store i think that would b3 sume thang good.


hope u like

ok find something that you would like to do. once you have done that and get an interview dress to impress, then make a very good impression let them know how you really would love to have the job.

u are so lazy and before u even try to become a big shotta u is goin to need a job to actually get there u never know when u might have to put up money but ur looks damn babes u are cute and when u go into a job interview u needs to be stunnin so when they call u u need to be the one that actually shines out as sayin o he looks like the perfect one for the job and use good manners and posture not tryin to be racist but become an white person a lil

i think that you need to come back to your father apoligz and ask him to help you in the rapping buzz. You think your grown but your not Artis! Grow up dont you see how sad you mad your family in the show your dad said i dont want to let the streets have him but to late Artis! They got you! And y dont you just tell your family where you get the 810$ from. Cant you see Artis your family loves! Some kids are getting beat by their family and wish they had one like yours so go back to them. i understand you wanna get out and grow up but dont grow up to much, you havnt even gone to college yet aint got a job house barly money. Go home and stop acting like a big baby! Your family just wants you to do things the best way possible so please go back home! I am out! :)

Hey honey hows it going i have read yo blog and i have watched u grow with living with your father i know it's hard seeing that he wasn't their for u through yo life but he is trying now and at least u have that. I am 28 years old and if my daddy had came to me at 18,19 i would have listened to him but now that i am a grown woman theirs nothing he can say or do for me i am a single mother of 5 children now if he wants to do something it should b their for them. You're still young and your daddy just wants what's best for u.Yes all these people have good advice for u and some of it is valid but the only person who will always have yo back is yo daddy give him a chance and like i said i know its hard but u have to try also to have what u really need from him. You cant just put it all on him i know that it seem like he being hard on you but he's really no he loves u and i know u love him back. Have what i never had with him a relationship with your father much love and if u cant talk to him u can talk to me.

Hi to you and your family!
First of all I would like to Thank You all for putting your lives out there for the whole world to see.
What I have found in life after raising 3 children is that if you dont have struggles in life you really dont grow and learn anything.
If everything is given to you then all you expect is "for everything to be given to you"..lol
Your passion is rapping or the music industry then I would stay in school if possible and look into writing classes or start at the bottom in a music company delivering the mail or whatever it takes to get into the company and work your way up.
I realize you have a 2 edged sword in your favor. First your dad is World Class talent and others will be looking at you even harder to see if "you have it" and Second because of your dads fame it might be easier to get into the business..
Whatever the case may be I wish you all the Greatest of Successes in Life!
I love the fact that your mom and dad work together to help each other figure out what
needs to be done to raise you all..Its Charming.

hey whats up artis my name is lanique and my suggestions that i feel about you and how you act especially towards your dad....well basically i think you should'nt act like that and i feel like you do have a god opporrtunity in life to do good and do ur rap carreer. really you shold be blessed that you have a dad and three sisters thats by ur side and wants you to do goodso don't be lazy because i know i am so like i think you sholud not get smart with your dad and treat him right cause you only get 1 momma and 1 daddy and i know he loves you know matter wat and he do want you to do good and love him because he is trying hard and was keepin a roof over your head bu you i know you're not a bad person because peronally i like you but you but your attiude makes you look bad but thats how i feel!!!!
luv ya girl,
lanique
a.k.a
ms.artis =)

whats up homeboy just keep spitting fire and youll be alright just make an attempt to take your pops lead. yall good knowing that he is doing something to give yall a hand in getting some exposure and a family business, instead of just getting his own paper up without making sure that yall are good. i feel you just stay sucker-free, cause cats out here now believe in sending a friend to the pen instead of doing thier own bid. feel me? so just put some real fat on your head(getting some more education)just to have something else to fall back on.ya dig! other than that #&@% can be #&@% ed up cause the government ain't doing #&@% but giving out more time than a brother can imagine. keep that A.I. #&@% flowing instead of throwing rocks at the PEN. Ya Dig!!

hey artis..its ashley from bakersfield, ca.
i met you a while back in august.
well anywho, i think as long as your confident you'll do well. Use a good range of vocabulary like instead of saying good, say Great or excellent. do you kind of know what im sayin?
well dress professional and a RESUME is always a
PLUS..kk
well good luck.

Hi Artis,

Your family's reality show was something to look forward to every Tuesday night, and wish that it can be aired for another season. Artis, you are a very blessed young man to have your father to be a part of your life regardless how long its been. I pray that you will have a good relationship with your family, especially with your dad. Children need guidance and your father is only doing what a good parent would do, that is to push his babies out of the nest. You can't learn to fly if you don't leave the nest the right way. Your father's interests may not be yours, but you have to encourage and motivate yourself to pursue happiness whatever you want to become. No person can achieve anything worth having without hard work. Your passion will drive you to success only if you're motivated enough. If you can't motivate yourself to succeed, connect yourself to motivators that have already achieved. Form relationships with elders whom have had successful lives, you will be suprised how they started out. Learn to pray, it helps. Much love and success to you and your family Artis.
May God Bless

yu need to go back home baby boi yu kant make it wit out daddy

i think yo pops need to beat yo muta #&@% in ass

Just be you n you will get a job but make sure it's something that you like 2 do n allway be ya self.......

Hello My name is joseph hall and I live in Chicago. I'm 29 and my girl is 25, we watched your dad's show and we liked it its real. I was raised by my grandmother, a good strong woman who taught that life is more than what you got. I thing you focused on the wrong things; i dont know if you'll read this but i would'nt feel right not trying to reach you seeing that you lost, life isn't about having STUFF, its about leaving your legacy to those who come after yo. The thing that I feel that you aren't getting is that you got a long life to live(hopefully if you doing right)and these few years that you have in pre-adulthood you should be using to set up your life for adulthood. your father is a lot like my father in that the way they communicate isn't that "beating around the bush" talk". You really should appreciate that you dont meet too many people who mean what they say and say what they mean, and he's YOUR father ya know? ya friends dont know the world and you sure as hell don't (no disrespect)but you could be BIG, and but you gonna mess it up because yo FATHER yells at you?!!!!! look My father yelled at me until i showed him that understood what he was tryin' to tell me and I was 25or 24 and I had to be in he house by 11:30 or sleep OUTSIDE and all your father wants you to do is commit to something, some people would kill to be in your place not to have a famous dad or nice stuff but to be in a place where literally the the world is at your fingertips . be wise and think about things you do in a way that makes your future better that your father. if you always think first, like, "ok, my father was here at this age and I'm here, now what do i need to do to et past this point ?" ya dig ?!! I know you feel like nobody's in your shoes but listen if you say what you feel, i mean what you really really feel to your dad, i bet he still love you after you say it, if you feel you need more praise and less criticism im sure he'll give it but you gotta be worthy of it.aiight?!!
And lastly you dont have to feel your old man is the hottest but i aint a person in america, hell damn near the world that hasnt heard or know his name he's bigger that david hasselhoff from knight rider think about it.
Be GOOD young brotha,
LOVE PEACE and PRAYER

I'm 20 years old and I loved this show, although I like Snoop's show very much Coolio's Rules is way better. It tells of the struggles that even celebrities go through which are the same struggles that average people go through. I love his kids they are no different than any other kids, however what I like most about Coolio and his show is the fact that he tries to teach his kids life long lessons that will be with them forever. Although he could just give them everything like a lot of celebrities give there kids he doesn't. All I want to know is why was the series only six episodes? WE NEED MORE OF COOLIO's RULES. Please give him at least one more season. I AM NOT GOING TO WATCH ANYMORE OXYGEN UNLESS COOLIO GETS ANOTHER SEASON.

i love you

he's mine he boyfriend trick

no who you talkin 2 like that girl don't you ever talk to my man like that agian b

I HAVE A SON EXACTLY... I MEAN EXACTLY.....LIKE YOU, _TO WHERE I THIOUGHT I WAS WATCHING HIM ON T.V.......WHO LOVES MONEY SSSSOOOO MUCH HE WOULD DO WHAT HE HAVE TO DO TO GET IT .........HE'S ONLY 15; AS FAR AS I KNOW, HE HASN'T STEP INTO THE OTHER WORLD TO GET IT YET (U KNOW).. BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY YOU ..CAN-NOT TAKE THAT MONEY TO HEAVEN OR HELL WITH YOU, OR NOTHING YOU BUY WITH IT ....I WISH YOU WELL.. PUT GOD BEFORE EVERYTHING AND YOU WONT N E E D ..MONEY AND THINGS SSSOOO MUCH. LUV YA
