|    Red Dwarf quote in job interview    |

      From: euclid@NOSPAMTHANKSshaw.ca              I've been waiting years to use this one...              My boss called a meeting yesterday to introduce a prospective employee       - he thought it would be a good idea for her to meet the whole       department (all 6 of us) straight away so that we could determine how       she does in uncomfortable situations. (We're software consultants,       and confidence in stressful situations is a basic need, but you can't       read it on a resume)              All the other introductions were made and I was the last one. My boss       introduced me, gave a brief summary of what I did and I replied,       "Everyone just generally calls me Duke". No one got the RD       connection, but it got big laughs all around anyway.              It was a good ice breaker for the meeting, but I don't think we'll be       offering her the job.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
