Personnel Department Part 1 By boomer I work in the personnel department for a large department store with the primary responsibility for hiring the cashiers for the store. this brings me into contact with a lot of 17 - 21 year old girls. It also gives me the opportunity to search for female muscle and armwrestling experiences. I have to be careful because the store doesn't need a lawsuit and I do need the job. I usually will ask a girls about her hobbies and interests as a part of the regular interview processs and take it from there. I only pursue the issue if the girl expresses an interest. I have never not hired someone just because of it, but have hired girls who are open about their fitness. Enough background. One applicant was Marina, a 19 year old Spanish girl about 5'3" tall and 110 pounds. During the course of the interview she mentioned that she used to run track and likes to stay in shape by doing pushups and pullups. She then went on to tell me she armwrestles with her sister and usually wins. I of course asked her if she had ever armwrestled with a guy and she said no, but had always wanted to. She then asked the words that got her the job, could she try it with me. Marina was no dummy. She could tell I was interested and she wanted the job, along with the generous employee discount on all merchandise. Now I am 5'10" tall and weigh 175 pounds. I am left handed so my right arm is weaker than my left. However, she was small so I figured to just have a good time. I sat at my desk and Marina stood on the other side, standing to offset the height differential. We locked arms and started. I eased into it wanting to see what she had. What she had was muscle and strength. I was forced to immediately increase the pressure level because she was strong. Her bicep strained under the sleeve of her blouse (I wish there was a rule all applicants had to wear sleeveless blouses). Marina had gained a slight advantage. This was not going as I expected. I still wasn't going 100% so I wasn't panicky at this point. I again increased the pressure and was able to get her back to the starting point. Marina asked if I was embarassed struggling against such a tiny chica (her word). She was actually holding me. We stayed like this for about 30 seconds. She sounded like she was taunting me but since she was saying it in Spanish I could only tell by the tone of her voice. I'm not sure how to translate wimp but I got the idea. I then threw everything I had at her and was able to gain a slight advantage. She smiled at me and said maybe I had some hombre in me after all. Now I was getting a little angry and scared at the same time. Left handed or not, she was too small to beat me. I grunted and strained for all I had and started pressing my advantage. I finally was able to start slowly ( and I do mean slowly) pressing her arm down towards defeat. This girls was incredible. Finally I was able to pin her down after about 2 minutes which had seemed like 2 hours. I was huffing a bit and sweating. She looked perfectly calm. I expressed my admiration at her strength snd she rolled up her sleeve and flexed her bicep for me. It wasn't huge but it was very well defined and rock solid. She told me she did 50 pushup (mens style) and 2 sets of 10 chinups every night. I told her she had the job as she smiled knowingly. I told her I would see her again in 3 months when she got her probationary review. She told me she would train a little harder and would give 100% of her effort at the rematch we would have. Who was I to argue. She gave a sweet smile as my jaw dropped upon realizing what she had just said. I didn't know if she was joking or had actually let me win the match in order to get the job. She gave me another muscle shot and another sweet smile as she left the office. 3 months can sometimes seem like an eternity, but I couldn't wait.
