I work with a company that does defense contracts.

In an interview one of my co-workers was administering, he asked the applicant if he had any questions. The applicant response was, "Yeah, how dows it feel to make weapons that kill people?" Nope, he didn't get the job.

I was in an interview once (as part of the hiring team, not the applicant) when this guy came in completely in drag: dress, make-up, high heels, the whole shebang (no pun intended). His outfit was never even mentioned during the interview. Afterwords, it took us at least 10 minutes to regain our composure for the next applicant.

I work with a company that does defense contracts....The applicant [asked], "Yeah, how dows it feel to make weapons that kill people?"

The Lazamataz Response: Smile darkly, stand up slowly (and with an obvious erection) and say "Almost as good as killing people with my bare hands."

The applicant response was, "Yeah, how dows it feel to make weapons that kill people?"

I'd have said "when its the right people like terrorists and war combatants, pretty darn good!"

I interviewed a guy recently that had a resume stating he had a Bachelor's degree in Electronics. After talking for a while I got him to admit he'd only taken a couple of classes, but that he'd stopped going until he got "another job."

He didn't get hired, but the joke around here is that we use the "Mirror Test." Place a mirror in front of their face and if they fog it up---they're hired!!!
