Job Search Humour

It could be trouble when you get a call to go interview from...BRIANNA  :D
Got half way through the interview until I discovered that she had someone else's application.
I had to chuckle when she asked me "What can you add to the organization"

True story.  Funny and sad, both.

Years ago I was recruited for a position in the Army Reserves.
The dumb-ass (LTC) interviewer kept telling me I wasn't qualified and that the other applicant was a West Point grad.   He concluded the interview by saying not to feel bad if I didn't get the job because "the other guy is a West Pointer."

I figured "ahhh, what the hell!"  Shook his hand, looked him straight in the eye, and said "Well, sir, if I were you I wouldn't hold that against him."   :finger:
