Le weekend est passé très vite.

I'm curious to know why this sentence isn't conjugated with avoir (passer + time) or "se passer" (to happen/take place)? Would it be incorrect to write "Le weekend s'est passé très vite"?

Meaning of vendeur/vendeuse with qualifying adjective

Why is a sales ASSISTANT, referred to as vendeur? A salesperson ( un vendeur) is different than a subordinate salesperson assistant. I used the qualifying adjective and it was marked wrong.
