Thanks. Unfortunatly the position for 'Supermodel Oiler' has allready been filled, but this one is second place on my list.

Ha, I knew that it was a real job when I applied. Most people thought that oiling supermodels wasn't a real job, but here I am, oil for the skin and petroleum jelly for the teeth, rubbing away at those firm, supple bodies in the changing room.....

EDIT: Oh, sorry, I forgot. Good luck, ProMonkians. I may have no idea what your name means, but I support you wholeheartedly!

Hopefully not literally...
It'd be a bit tricky to get in on a job when you've killed the interviewer.
:D

Anyway...
Good luck, ProMonkians!

Remember to zip your fly when you enter the interviews.

Remember to zip your fly when you enter the interviews.

Perhaps, the zipping action would be better before entering rather than when entering. I guess it depends on the job and the interviewer.

Thanks for all the luck, the interview went fine. The tests at the end didn't; there was three tests, programming, literacy, and numeracy. The programming one was okay but I passed a question only for the answer to hit me as I was leaving. The literacy could either be brillaint or shite. The maths one has got me pretty agitated - I've never been good at the problem solving side of maths like finding fucking percentages where you only know some of the fucking numbers involved. Give me an equation with a logarithmn in it and I'm fine, but ask me to find a pattern in a table and I can't even tell the difference between a fucking row and a column. What really annoys me is that I know I am a great candidate for the job - I learn really fast and easily, I left my contemporys in the dust at uni and got a first class degree without breaking a swet. But now I've screwed up on some random questions and so the job is going to be given to some other glaikit fuckwit who knows all about pie-charts but nothing about actual programming. I need a drink...
