I have a job interview at 9am. What kind of job? Let me put it to you this way - I learned how to tie a tie for the interview.
Wish me luck, details later.

Best of luck, Jeff. Knock 'em dead!
Posted by Jason Abbadon (Member # 882) on :
I just wanted to say: Good luck. We're all counting on you.
Posted by Vice-Admiral Michael T. Colorge (Member # 144) on :
Good luck... don't forget to apply the right amount of brown nosing...

Suddenly Blondie's "Call Me" started playing in my mind.

Wait...you've never worn a tie before ever? Ever? Madness.

Maybe he had one of those ones fastened with Velcro? In the dangerous world of pizza delivery, you don't want to give the irate customer something to grab hold of and choke you with.
Posted by AndrewR (Member # 44) on :
What if the horny woman pulls said delivery boy in for sex - and she instead rips of the velcro-attatched tie and said delivery boy falls back arse-over-kettle into the husband's prize winning cactus patch?

The day you wear a tie is the day you die.

Then he'll feel a prize-winning prick. Duh. . .

Oooh, very nice.
Posted by Aban Rune (Member # 226) on :
I don't know... there's nothing like putting on a nice, fitted white shirt and a cool, double Windsor knotted tie to make a boy feel double smashing. Add some nice pin-striped pants from Banana Republic and you're good to go.
(no, I'm not wearing that outfit right now, but I do quite often)
Oh, and go get 'em Snay!

Hmm, so between your wardrobe and your sausage-hiding avoidance, you might as well be a Jehovah's Witness. Join! You can bring your graphic design skills to bear on The Watchtower, it needs a new look. 8)
Posted by Aban Rune (Member # 226) on :
Dude... I am a Jehovah's Witness. I thought we'd already made fun of me for that...
The Watchtower got a good update when Drew Struzan taught at the U.S. branch office for a little while and taught everyone how to up their skillz. He even did a couple of covers. And they've actually been trying some new stuff with photography and whatnot recently.

Really? I don't remember it being mentioned. I'll sit back however and wait for Smartassman or Siegfried to post a link to the discussion in question.
Posted by Cartman (Member # 256) on :
Everyone always coming to Cartman with problems. Great responsibilities, but Cartman does not mind. Cartman trained in crisis management. B)
Posted by Lee (Member # 393) on :
Ahh, early 2000. That explains it. I was on a break at the time.
Posted by Aban Rune (Member # 226) on :
Ah yes... my days as a noob. Such fond memories...

I don't remember any thread like that, though I see that Cartman (Master of the Searching Skillz) has found it. And I see why I don't remember it: it's in the Flameboard and it's from early 2000. Mystery solved! Spot on! Tea and Crumpets!

Aban's a Witness? But he's so young, I usually only see old people when they come to my door. Well I guess even they need some new blood in their ranks and - oh, no wait...
Posted by Aban Rune (Member # 226) on :
OK, the blood joke was clever.
I wanna hear if Snay got his job though. And I want to see a picture of him in the tie. Or at least a picture of the tie with wrinkles in it to prove that it was worn...
Posted by Mighty Blogger Snay (Member # 411) on :
I was told it would actually be a week and a half to two weeks before background checks would be completed, and I won't find out until then. However, I don't think I got the job.
Posted by Jay the Obscure (Member # 19) on :
Background checks? Better make sure they don't read your past posts or look at your blog.
Posted by Topher (Member # 71) on :
I remember a rather vivacious acquaintance from school that is a Witness. Quite the looker she is. Brrow.

"The day you wear a tie is the day you die."
The only day I can recall wearing a tie was the day I was a pallbearer, so I think there may be something to this.
Posted by Balaam Xumucane (Member # 419) on :
Well presumably you didn't die. Ties are awesome. Good luck, Snay.

Did you tell them about your Jeep stories? If not, the you might not have blown the interview.

Did you blow the interviewer? If not, then you might have to tell them about your Jeep stories.
