The reason why that idiot was there today is because none of the previous applicants supplied the badly needed feedback.

After this, the twerp might either mend his ways, or quit — both good outcomes from the standpoint of all future victims (and the company, most likely).

A couple of months ago I was interviewing for a 1 year contract position. Near the end of the interview I got this question: “What do you see yourself doing in 5 years?” I was stumped. We were talking about a 1 year contract. “How the hell should I know?” was the first thing that came into my mind, but I knew that wouldn’t work. After I didn’t get the position, I wish I had adopted your approach, at least to preserve what is left of my sanity.

Give him a break lol

During a screening interview, I was asked how I would design a bike fit for someone visually impaired. I responded something to the effect of, “What, like, for blind people?”, and she answered yes.

I thought for a moment and then I responded, “Well.. a blind person riding a bike doesn’t sound like a very safe idea, so I would make the bike stationary, maybe with a fan blowing in the person’s face. He probably wouldn’t even know the difference.”

She was speechless.

OPS: Just do it.
