In an interview today..

Me - "So tell me why you say on your resume you're a hard worker and respectful of others"

Girl - "Ok, well...(cell phone noise)... just a second" she then proceeded to to pull out her phone and answer a text... "Sorry, didn't want to let her forget we were going out tonight"

Me - "Don't worry about, you can just call her now, and let her know you're done"

*facepalm*

You have to have one more, Francois. Because, on the third day of Christmas, my True Love gave to me ... Three French hens, two turtle doves and a partridge that she wouldn't let me shoot out of the pear tree. I'm not a fan of doves, but partridges are tasty (prefer duck, pheasant or quail). French hens are beautiful. See why you walk Robert and Prunette around on leashes.

Ciao, John
