The Lions Den

I'm eating a bowl full of brussel sprouts.

What kind of bet did you lose?

I've been eating an awful lot of tuna salad lately.

Now I know what you're thinking. "Fog, isn't tuna getting pretty expensive?"

But I thought, "What the hell. You only live once. Right?"

Hey, the basic grade of canned tuna at the grocery store is cheaper than the damned cat food. My wife complains that I'm spoiling our two examples of furred evil, so I guess what she doesn't know won't hurt her.

You're walking a fine line. The cat food probably has fewer harmful additives.

Things certainly have changed a lot as far as interviews go. I remember when interviews would last for 15 or 20 minutes. Today's interview.

HR: What would you say is your biggest weakness.
Me: Honesty.
HR: I don't think honesty is a weakness.
Me: I don't give a shit what you think.

Very disappointing.

The Lions have been really impressive, not looked this good since the barry sanders and coach fontes days.

 

[Thruthefog]

I remember that 51 guy. He was the reason Mike Lucci never got any love.

 

[gandydancer]

Anybody looking for a job? I keep seeing the Border Patrol is hiring.

 

[Thruthefog]

I've never been attracted to jobs that require me to carry a firearm. That's why I went to Oak Island when the Viet Nam war broke out. Went huntin' for treasure. Everyone thought I was killed. I should be pretty much in the clear now.

 

[tpaulus_2]

Love that show. I did a report on Oak Island back in middle school in a North American history class...

I really hated that canned, 1980s-style HR interview crap. "where do you see yourself in five years?" kind of shit.

I much prefer to let them talk for 15 minutes to expand on the resume, tell them a bit about the company, and then give them a comprehensive written test. It has amazed me several times how the test (which really shows if they can walk the walk) produces surprising results.

Came across this song and the Lions message board immediately popped into my mind.

I was waiting to see a cameo of myself in that video, but never saw me, myself or I.

The part about "I could care less that means you do care at least a little" had me rolling.....

Yes, that was a good one for here.

I've finally joined the 21st century. But probably only the early part of the first decade. Got me a laptop. I hate the keyboard, but other than that, it's okay. At least I'll be able to watch the tellyvision and give you guys shit at the same time.
