OT: My Job Interview

Thanks both of you for giving me a few giggles. Pat

Hey, I claim credit for the "acting like". You specifically called him a "tedious fathead" and then went on to justify it.

Oh dear.

John

Guy, Macon, the only honest answer to that is, "It depends." And I say this in all seriousness, with Ridh the Techic beating at the alcohos door, screaming, "No! NO! Shut the Fuck UP YOu BONEHESAD!!!!! He Mignt Have Moneyh!!!!!!!!" that sort of thing.

One thing that could be learned, is to determine the state of mind of the interviewer.

[oh, crap, I thinkk I jus tchanneled that from somebody on the other side, who might possibly be submitting his rewume as my latest Spirit Guide. - RTP]

But Rich, the phyusickal being, is qhite drunk, and getting drunker, and smokign herb,and longing for a live audience. And there's some very impatient-sounding music on the radio, which is tuned into FM 105.1, "Kay- Mozart", KMZT.

But I've heard or read somewhere that the muzak can influence pepole's productivity.

I also know something about studies, where I spent two or three years coding documents in two tobacco litigation cases.

So, I guess I have some issues, but most of them are about sharing my good fortune with those that don't want it. Jim, you're excempt[sic], because you already have everything, but, well, there may be peoplle who want actual Freedom. That's my Worship Word.

That's it! The Church of the Neodruid is the Church in which Freedom Is Our Worship Word!

Yeah! (and the music on the radio corrorobrates this ruxh!

Cheers! Rich

Now, wait, a mainute, here! (I'll be proofreading soon, or maybe not...)

You want to find me a "great job" and all you askin return is that I "stop annoying you"?

Yeah, go ahead, make your callse!

I'll be sure to remember to remind them tha tGuy Macon is the one who rearranges orders of snippets of followups so that he can make his point.

I think, given what my drug-impaired mind has just processed, that it's safe to say that I wouldn't want to work for a company who gets their recommendations from a fathead.

Thanks you fery mycyh, Rich %-} the posts higher or lower on the list of unread posts.

..so if I find you a great job you will stop annoying me?

Excuse me. I have to make some calls...

No I don't. I use them as input to my scorefile system, moving the posts higher or lower on the list of unread posts.

Win, I've just spent all of ten minutes trying to find your actual email address - I thought it was as close as your next sig (much like Spehro and Joerg (Jeorg?) and Speff, but on my end, at least until tomorrow morning, you can send an email to snipped-for-privacy@yahoo.com, and if you elide ard, it will go to the real email.

But, I contuniuewe to search... ... What! All of this time you've had your own BLOG????!?!?!!

And I've bewen poking around that websiete, looking for are real Win Hill email - Dman! I could have sworn that Win used to put some kind of a link in his sig - maybe this is a test.

yeah, that's it it's a TEST!

Well, if after all of these years, Win hill has deemed me competent and capable of doing whatever job he has in mind, then it must be a job that's within my pubolically publiwhes capabilities.

So, Win, I'll keep trying to track down a real email for Win Hill, and you can go ahead and email me at richardgrise @yahoo.com, elide ard, and one way or another, we're gonna turn this into a win-win situation --- --- --- AUGH!! Has anyone else ever spotted that divine pun?

OK, email me at richardgrise@yahoo..com, elide ard and extraneous dots, and let's make millions of people happy. :-)

Thanks! Rich

(Or, do that dotties thing again.. wait a sec...

OK, I'll try that newsguy alias... Vee Shall See......

OK, I just sent an email to some newsguy alias Iv've found, and it was somewhat of an ordeal, truying o correwct all mof my spelling, in my delicate condition!

Let there be a public announcement: Rich Grise Drinks Booze! Rich Grise Smokes!

But Rich Grise, upon proper motivation, cna do amazing things, fi the rice s right!

Thanks! Rich (wanna see the three-rope trick?)

Win, I've just sent an email to an address that I've gleaned from what I've considered to be judicious perusal. Oh, jesus christ f*ck me up the ass, I've just had The Profound Revelation.

But, since it's a stoned profound revelatino, it's gone untill the next time someone has the sme profound relvelsation.

OJ, plainclothers hippie time,. 'cuz I _am_ putting herb on top of alcohol here.

Well, wha the euck, i f you woeer sitting aroung wout a goup of buds, wsho's gonna say, "No! No! Don't smoke more! And if it's only beer, well, duh.

Wine an dSchothr seem to be the purview of the monied, but that brings up another of m personal issues. I'ts not Brad's fault that I have no money!

It's my _own_ fault!

But that's not related to my electronics competency, it's orthogonal -

Oh, crap, I hade a perfect presentation written and scripted, and almost cast, and then my stupid head loat the thread.

Is this why marihuana is illegal to the point where the enforcers are allowed to do harm to you, just for doing something harmless, that Big Brother disapproves of?

What do they wish to accomplish, by incarcerating harmless people?

The drug crusaders need to be stopped!

Thanks, Rich

Neener, Neener, Neener!

Thank you for distilling this conversation to it's essence.

A workmate in college had a couple of >25lb cats. These things *loved* potato chips and weren't shy about stealing them out of your hand (attached or not). They were as nutz as the rest of the family.

Well, I just spent about 90 seconds on google (others are welcome to refine the search), but I claimed he was a "pompous ass", to which JohnL replied:

"I disagree. I think "fathead" is the more precise term here."

Hey, Rich,

What he's saying is that you'd better apologize instantly or you'll get kf'd.

Gosh, what do you call people who make demands like that?

All together now, group...

John

I'm sorry Rich, my newsgroup server seems to be ignoring the From: Winfield Hill line I programmed into it. You're supposed to edit the above to get my actual email address. It's a silly effort to hide, I get over 150 spams/day even with all my efforts to avoid it. Well, at least that's down from the peak of over 10,000 I got at home on one weekend two years ago. It was shortly after that experience that I shutdown my home email. It's been 20 months of peace since then. I've got a cPLD-programming job I'm sure you could handle just fine, and thereby save me a precious day or two. I'll try emailing you from work later this morning.

 Thanks,

Lol !

And to think this issue ( of G.M.'s fatheadedness ) kicked off in depth simply over the established usage of decibels !

When did you twig to the fact that the 'consultant' was also an applicant? During or after the interview?

If during the interview, you should have stood up and walked out straight away since it is a big no-no for a job applicant to also be an interviewer, - unless it was fait accompli and he was guaranteed to get it all along, that is.

You know, I don't much like those who engage in unprovoked personal attacks, whether drunk or sober. I am inclined to killfile you for repeated and unprovoked personal attacks, but I am curious enough to read your response to this before taking that step.

You are starting to remind me of Marvin the Martian and his Ionization Nebulizer. "I'm going to exterminate *YOU*"

Bob

apostrophe alert!
