Formal Interview

I had my first formal interview on Friday, November 1. I had the privilege of interviewing Lisa Miller, one of the managers and bartender at Flo's. She is a vibrant woman with blonde hair and blue eyes and is often mistaken as Flo due to her loving demeanor and level of care for the customers. When I sat down with her, I told her I had a list of questions and went over the informed consent form. she said "Oh please, I trust you. I don't care what you use from the interview". I laughed at her and told her I needed her to sign it anyway. she complied and then the interview began. I asked mainly open questions that left her plenty of time to talk, which she loves to do. I found out how she met the owner, Komes, how she began working at Flo's, what she did before becoming a bartender, and what the place and the people mean to her. overall, it was a very powerful interview that left me with plenty of "golden nuggets" for my final paper.
