pre - employment strenght test

tumor

Few weeks ago I had interview for a job( sitting at the conveyor belt and checking beer bottles ) at the big national brewery,I was speachless when I had to answer 50 questions in a 12 minutes.I could not answer even 5 of them .So they thank me for coming and told me to wait for phone call if they are interested in me.
I almost forgot about that interview but then Holy Cow! yesterday they called me back but I have to go for a strenght test now,while my lower back is killing me,sometimes I can't even get up from the chair not to mention lifting something heavy from the floor.
My question;did anyone of you went thru this strenght test? is there a lot of lifting and stuff?do I stand a chance?

The only person who can answer your questions is probably your prospective employer. You should be honest about your lower back problems, because your health might be endangered.

I took a strength test for the phone company. All I had to do was to hold this scale device in front of my chest and pull with both arms. Then they read the meter.

Go see a chiropractic for your back.

Hey! I'm back from the strenght test.They tested my legs ,arms, and lower back, somehow I managed to do all the bending and lifting without falling apart (Lower back is killing me)
Results of the tests going to be send to my potential employer on monday, I hope I'm gonna get the job at the brewery
Besides my problems with lower back I also suffer from epileptic seizures, I instead told them my health is perfect Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha! Suckers

Epileptic seizures.... back problems... and you lie?

That seems far more important than a job.

This job is not some kind of ordinary job, this is BREWREY! job, FREE BEER,BEER,BEER Man! For a guy beer is more important than health stuff!
I'm on medicine now and long time passed since I found my self in the emergency room. I will be fine

It seems like he has some other problems in addition to his epileptic seizures and back problems. Maybe with some good medical benefits, he'll get the help he really needs.
