Sbarro would sell you a meatball for .99
AuBon Pain would sell a hard roll for $1.50
So for $2.50 you could make a little meatball sub.

Things are too expensive now. Can't afford to eat on this contract.
I look like someone starved a virgin to death.

Any interview prep you use, be sure to use it as a framework to present YOUR story. DO NOT use it as a canned answer bank.
The interview here tends to be very relaxed, but the interviewers are sharp cookies. They can tell canned answer from a mile away. They want to know YOU, not who you used to prep. So tell them about you and what you've done in your career... own your mistakes, In fact, if you own up and present your mistakes and what you've learned, that's generally a big plus. DO NOT try to hide them. Be proud of your accomplishments and share it with them.
Something that might be helpful... When we're in recurrent training, after the checkride, it's not the check airman reading the litany of what he observed. He or she merely facilitates. No way a check airman will be any harder on me than me on myself, and that's how most guys are. So in a debrief, I own every screw up I made and what I could have done better. Approach your interview in the same fashion and you'll do fine.
