    jesus christ, is kinky hiring the next president!?

    a more realistic application:

    name
    address
    phone
    availability
    position desired
    work history
    references
    are you over 18
    you certainly don't have any felonies on your record, right? (wink wink nudge nudge, lie on this part)

    haha, i'll never forget my initial papa john's interview...

    "you have a car right? ok. well, the uniform is yada yada yada. it's an easy job, as long as shit gets done we don't give a fuck. come in for training tomorrow at 3."



    when i did interviews, they usually consisted of asking if they were available on friday and saturday nights, and telling them when to come in for training.

    Ummm... I have flexible wrists that were MADE to work a spatula.

    i suspect you're the only one here who has had a real job...

    every job i've had, even the one semi-real one, started out at entry level. i'm awful at interviews so i just start low and let them see that i'm an infinitely better worker than 99% of the employees that pass through. then i get promoted without having to deal with the whole silly interview process.
