Ture story from my life. I had a job interview today. I sat down in the office with this guy at 0900 as he refilled his HUGE mug of coffee. As he reviewed my application, he asked why i was applying for the job.

Me: "Well, to tell the truth, im desperate to get any job, and i am perfectly flexable to work any time. Whats the one shift everyone hates? I'll take that one."

Manager: "Why are you so desperate?"

Me: "Well...I lost my job and then am only able to pay my bills doing work for people, which is running dry quickly. I could no longer afford my house so me and my wife moved to a house that to apply the term "fixer upper" would be like calling death a slight illness. a few weeks ago she leaves me with no money, a broken down truck, bills bills to pay, and the new house in need of more repairs. Then she takes my cat, who was one of my best friends in the whole world."

Manager: (Serious) "Wow. How do keep going after all of that bad luck? I would have curled up and died."

Me: (equally serious) "I can't find the keys to my .45 ammo."

I then helped him clean up the coffee he launched through his nose while laughing.

Do you think i'll get the job?

Hahaha! Seriously, you need to turn that into a blues or country song! You already have 3/4 of the lyrics in your post. Maybe title it "Interview Blues"? or summin else?

Many years ago while I was doing my white collar and tie stint with a California security company, I would often hire a person who showed me ANYTHING out of the ordinary during an interview. These people, that I hired against my higher-up's opinions, turned out to be some of the greatest assets the company ever had, rising on up through the company, then moving on to various police departments in some cases, or being placed in accounts within the company that led to a lot of money being made by them...while in a couple of years, I myself always managed to piss someone off higher up that led to me being canned, lol. :cantlook: Worst thing to do is let me get bored at a job... whenever they threw me into a new account where 90% of the former people had walked off the job when we took over, I would thrive, kick butt and take names and get everything lined out and working smooth, but once things settled into a rut, watch out!

if you made him spew coffee through his nose then more than likely you will get that job.... ppl that hire in want everyone they work with to make them lol every once in a while; even if it is at the hiring level. call him in 3 days and say something like another person you interviewed with wanted you to start immediately but you were kinda digging his and the entire offices vibe and want to be there instead..... works every time.
