Bust.I got a call this afternoon ( actually it was somewhere around 11:47 AM ) from the employer I was to interview with today. Hello, Mr. xttwo, listen, we' ve read your skills and experience, and figure maybe you' re not exactly a fit for the position we' re offering, we see you have more hardware experience than software experience so we would like to forward your information to another company we keep in contact with. That' s basically what they said, but I know what they meant. A slight difference. Tell me something. Just exactly how stupid do you think I am? ( referring to employers ) Don' t you suspect at least in some way I can deduce for this magic phone call that you' ve already hired someone? Of course one of you must have just remembered that I' m that last interview still undone, so instead of actually comming out and being truthful you give me another kiss off routine. Trust me I know it when I hear it. You can try to reshape it into something else like silly puddy, you can remolecularize it like a particle generating machine, but my eyes, my ears, my nose and throat all say the same thing. You people are idiots. It is plain, but it' s more so simple. #1 for not hiring me, #2 for not telling me the truth, and #3 for trying to pawn me off by making up some phony imaginary second employer company it' s all to easy to guess does not even exist. So to make a long post shorter than usual, no job for me, but yet another expected disappointment. One more I can throw on top of the pile. Very nice. So you see my friends, my dearest compadres, my idiot bretheren, this is why I have a salty opinion of them. This is why I have a ( very ) below average distain for employers. You' re continuous objections to how harsh I am, albeit I recognize, but still notwithstanding. If we are stupid, why do many of us here have good jobs and are successful? I have been in a hiring position in the past so I can speak from both sides of the table. I would suggest you put yourself in a hiring person' s shoes and take a good, hard look at yourself and and you will see why you don' t get jobs.
Well first of all, don' t use " if " you are all stupid. I can see that as clearly as the afteroon 51 degree sunshine. Second, if you weren' t so ignorant, you would have read, numerous times already, my having put myself in the position of an employer. I see myself as good with computers, and equipment - on paper. So as an employer, what would I do? I would call me in for an interview, ask him a few questions, and hire them. I wouldn' t expect me to dress like a model for Yves Saint Laurent or Burberrs Of London. Put on a shirt and tie and you got the job. Plain and Simple. But of course screwballs like you make up every hurdle, and stupid rationale for host of other things. It' s no different than jumping through imaginary hoops. If I have a job to offer, I don' t care if they came in to work in the nude, so long as you don' t get arrested for pubic indecency, come in, do your job, and most importantly, go home. Is that too hard for you to understand? You might as well say yes, because of that rock solid coconut brain continulously generating the same questions I have to answer over, and over, and over again. | |
