It's all fun and games until somebody loses an eye
Oh, I *do* hate the stupid questions they ask at interview. Especially the management speak ones. How people can say those things with a straight face, I just don't know...
I think I'll start applyig for jobs I don't want so that I can give stupid answers to these questions. That'd be fun.
Them: Why do you want to work for Pratt and Son?
Me: Jobcentre told me to.
Them: Anything else?
Me: Mmm...mmm...mmm...I have always wanted to pack ladies tights into boxes.
Them: Why?
Me: Jobcentre told me to.
And I actually got the job on the back of that.
You probably pressed the big flashing "self-destruct" button which always hovers in interviewees brains.
The old ladies-tights-boxes gambit has paid off for me in the past until I applied to become an airline pilot.
Which airline Murphy? I flew for BA for years before they realised I didn't handle anything about 10 Denier...
Ohh and, lovely lady with the fab taste in music, wherefore dost thou 'obtain' said "mashup" tracks wot are in yer wee listy thing, he said in a wandering accent stylee.
I had every intention of finding out what it meant. However, it was put to me as:- "my next question was going to be 'how would you ensure that you are a proficient practitioner?', but I think you've already covered that in your previous answer".
So, still no closer to finding out what it means. Sorry.
L - you'll be able to ask when you get the job.
hello Gordon - if, by 'lovely lady with fab taste' you mean me, erm, sorry, I nicked the mash ups from the jukebox of the freemaninpreston ... but I'm sure he'll be along shortly with a more satisfactory answer
murphy - 'self destruct button', yes that's definitely me.
looby - I didn't deliberately give stupid answers you know!
anxious - all I know is I can't answer them with a straight face!
gary - see! honesty *is* the best policy, I knew it!
Oh no, of course not - I was just thinking it might be an amusing thing to do.
Erm...I'll get my coat.
