Well I have been back out doing the job hunt thing, which seemed like it was going well, however hard to say, so I sit and wait trying to keep a positive outlook and a sense of humour. So instead of blogging my woes of the hunt I decided to list some of the strangest and funniest things ever said to me during an interview. Here goes:
1. This was for a bank job, the position was in a grocery store and you would do sales during down times. During the interview the manager said to me: " I like to look at it like you're picking up in a bar. Sometimes you get shot down and sometimes you get lucky, you just gotta keep at it."
2. This one was odd, and just happened yesterday, she was telling me about the job and said:" I'm Catholic, Just on a side note," and proceeded to talk about whatever it was she was speaking of, I think it's funny how she actually said on a side note.
3. "If you were stranded on a deserted island what three things would you take with you?"
4. 'How would you feel if you didn't get the job?" this one was when I was after a promotion, I didn't get it, surprise, surprise..
5."Did you vote for the current president?" Paul was asked this in and interview, I was so shocked when I heard that one.
6. "Do you smoke?"
7. "Can you sew on a button?" which has no relavancy to the job what so ever.
These are just a few of the strange and funny things, that have been said during an interview. Would love to hear some of yours!

You're nobody until you're religious!
I have no funny things from interviews. I'm very disappointed!
Here's wishing you more luck with the whole job thing!
