I don't write as often as I might like, and when I do - it's
often about coffee. Anyone who knows me
knows my love of coffee.
This morning a friend sent me a very funny joke about
coffee. The setting for the joke was
that of a job interview...and it triggered a memory of I job interview I had
many years ago.
The interview was with a small company, and the man
interviewing me was the president - his name is Bill. My friend Greg referred me for the position,
and told me Bill was a funny, quirky guy...but I'd not met him prior to the
interview.
I walked into Bill's office, we exchanged pleasantries, and
I handed him a copy of my resume. He
asked that I sit down and he looked over my credentials for a minute or
so. He then said, "So - you were
referred by Greg? You worked with
him?" I told him yes, and gave a little background on the work
Greg and I did together.
Bill said, "Good.
Can you cuss and drink coffee?” to which I smiled and told him,
"Yes, sir."
Bill then said, "Good.
You're hired."
End of interview.
