I'd like to say "How did you survive into adulthood? Don't people as stupid as you walk in front of buses, or something?" |

Which reminds me of some interviewing tips I learned from George Carlin. When you want to make a great impression with a male boss who's interviewing you, point to the picture of his wife on the desk and say, "Hey, who's the (c)unt?" Then tell him that if you get the job, you'd like a desk real close to the exit so at the end of the day, you can get the f*ck outta there in a big, big hurry. And once you've successfully used the above tips to land the job, here's Carlin's suggestion for calling in sick. Call your boss and tell him you're smoking a bongful of Fruit Loops and watching the mid-morning movie and you probably won't make it in today. And then there's the classic line from Office Space where the two Bobs say to Peter, "You been missing a lot of work lately, Peter." And Peter says, "I wouldn't say I've exactly been missing it, Bob." DL
