Guest MattP Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 Who the **** wouldn't turn up to a job interview in a suit?!
MPH Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 Another few of mine... Never seen or read anything about Harry Potter or the twilight series. Never smoked. Not even a drag. Never placed a bet..
MPH Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 Who the **** wouldn't turn up to a job interview in a suit?! Actually my brother did.. He is one of those smarmy arrogant types... He was going for a chief engineer job within the cellular industry (Motorola...)well paid too. He turned up in long shorts and a t-shirt. And he was actually asked " errm.. do you mind telling us what you are doing?... Everyone else has dressed smart.." he just said that he was being realistic as this is what he was likely to wear every day to work as he would be based in an office with no public contact. I don't think they knew what to make of that! He got the job.
FoxesAreBlue Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 Who the **** wouldn't turn up to a job interview in a suit?! The two numpties I interviewed today for a start.
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 ......been to a pantomime Pretty boring start to a game but it is true. I never realised it till I was a lot older but it is something that most kids do (don't they?) but my parents never took me to a pantomime; they also never took me to the circus. I have no kids of my own yet, and a 30 something man showing up at a panto on his own could be misconstrued, but my nephew is getting to an age - so there is hope. I'm not saying that it has affected me or anything but it got me thinking about the tv and radio show I've never seen Star Wars and thought it would make a fun thread whilst we wait for something interesting to happen at LCFC. It should be something that a 'regular' person would normally expect you to have done but I fear that this will probably degenerate quite quickly! What! You have never watched Leicester City? This geezer knows all about pantomimes and circuses.
leicsmac Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 The two numpties I interviewed today for a start. Even as a centrist veering left on some issues I find that ridiculous. Suits are de rigueur for practically any interview, surely? What job post did you interview for FAB, and have you got any more available?

leicsmac Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 male Stripper. Bow tie a must. Growth industry, good pay. Sounds alright.

What job post did you interview for FAB, and have you got any more available? I wouldn't like to say as they may read this. However you need to be qualified for the role and if you were, you would know oft he position already so I doubt I can help you. The role is not important, could be CEO for the company or the toilet cleaner. A to me a suit denotes that you have made the effort and at taking the application process seriously. It's not a deal breaker, a good candidate will get the job regardless - but it is certainly noted against them in my eyes. When I was interviewed for my promotion with my own manager who I work with every day I wore a suit and left all jokes and our social relationship at the door and unless he, as an interviewer bought a joke/general chat into the conversation, it remained professional. Today's clowns were both numpties in their own right, and one smelt bad. Neither were suitable anyway.
Carl the Llama Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 If someone showed up in their birthday suit, would they get the job for pulling off such a classic gag?
MikeyT Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 Mad. I'm absolutely scared to death of flying still and have to get quite drunk before going on one. Is it the scared of flying? Or the crashing and dying part, like me?
Wymsey Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 Who the **** wouldn't turn up to a job interview in a suit?! Rincewind?
FoxesAreBlue Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 If someone showed up in their birthday suit, would they get the job for pulling off such a classic gag? Nope. It's not original enough in afraid!
21st Century Fox Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 If someone showed up in their birthday suit, would they get the job for pulling off such a classic gag? Maybe if you shaved your pubes into the letters C.V. and an arrow pointing down to your cock.
Guest MattP Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 Is it the scared of flying? Or the crashing and dying part, like me? Definitely the second part
Carl the Llama Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 Maybe if you shaved your pubes into the letters C.V. and an arrow pointing down to your cock. I'm afraid it wouldn't be extensive enough.
Renart Posted 12 June 2013 Author Posted 12 June 2013 Mad. I'm absolutely scared to death of flying still and have to get quite drunk before going on one. Made me think about this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pl4plPGRG8o Which made me find this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBHEPyWEcxg Just for you MattP
Rincewind Posted 12 June 2013 Posted 12 June 2013 Rincewind? Is that aimed at me or the character I took the name from. For my part I always attended interviews in a suit. Unfortunately there are other barriers which are unavoidable that I was unaware of over the last 18 Months. I hope others on here do not have to cross them. Rincewind the Terry Pratchett Discworld character would wear a wizard's outfit but as he is a self-acclaimed coward I doubt that he would go after anything with a risk element.

What annoys me is when you put an advert in the local paper for a job vacancy and you say " apply in writing only" and they either just turn up or ring to apply.Read the fooking advert properly or how do you expect to take everyday instructions on board.Failed before applying properly.
Rincewind Posted 13 June 2013 Posted 13 June 2013 I have never blocked anyone on here. I don't even know how to do it.
The Doctor Posted 13 June 2013 Posted 13 June 2013 Who the **** wouldn't turn up to a job interview in a suit?! Yo. Full kilt, no-one argues with the guy with a dagger in his sock.
Finnegan Posted 13 June 2013 Posted 13 June 2013 Yo. Full kilt, no-one argues with the guy with a dagger in his sock. Look a nob when they clock you've never lived a day in Jockland though.
Parafox Posted 13 June 2013 Posted 13 June 2013 I have never... understood Moosebreath's bitterness towards other posters that don't share his views.
