Stories from HR professionals compiled by Reader's Digest...

 

We ask prospective job applicants at our business to fill out a questionnaire. For the line 'Choose one word to summarize your strongest professional attribute,' one woman wrote, "I'm very good at following instructions."

 

A guy once talked during the interview about how an affair cost him a previous job.

 

I had somebody list their prison time as a job. And an exotic dancer who called herself a 'customer service representative.'

 

Candidate specified that his availability was limited because Friday, Saturday, and Sunday was 'drinking time.'

 

A guy who forgot dark socks to wear with his suit colored in his ankles with a black felt-tip marker.

 

I was interviewing someone who took a cell-phone call and asked me to leave my office while they talked.

 

The candidate told the interviewer he was fired from his last job for beating up his boss.

 

The candidate said that by crossing the Maryland state line he was in violation of his probation but felt the interview was worth risking possible jail time.

 

An applicant said she was a ‘people person,’ not a ‘numbers person,’ in her interview for an accounting position.

 

A candidate complained that she was hot. She then said ‘Excuse me’ and removed her socks. After placing them on the desk, she continued as if everything was normal.

When hunting for my next job I'm using this answer if I get asked, mostly because it's a BS question.

 

"What would you say is your greatest weakness"

 

"I'm too honest"

 

"I don't think that's a weakness"

 

"I don't give a poo what you think"

      Why do people think Bryce Young won this game yesterday?

      By Mage · Posted

      It is entirely possible to defend your point without calling a bunch of people "tards".  Bryce Young sucks.  The vast majority of football fans acknowledge and accept this, especially on this site despite the very few who may argue otherwise, and even then, I find it is more in a "cut him some slack" kind of way and not a "he's the future of the team" kind of way. At the end of the day, if you look hard enough on the Internet, you are always going to find takes that drastically differ from what you perceive to be the truth.   And nobody who's football opinion is worth listening to has argued Bryce Young is the MVP.  Again, that is an example of you looking way too hard on Twitter, assuming that is something you have actually even read.

      It works very well it’s just frustrating because it can win enough games to keep those three coaches employed even when they don’t innovate or ever make a decision that doesn’t come from a chart. If they weren’t so robotic in their decision making they’d be in the top tier of NFL coaches.
