.............oh.....

[Titchyboy]

THis happend at the weekend and the look on this guys face still makes me giggle.

I was sat in my little boxy type office at our depot, going over my weeks paper work and sorting out my teams jobs for the following week, when my door bursts open and in walks this yuppie type bloke saunters in yakking on his mobile.
I shall hence forth call him Rude DoucheBag

RDB: I'll call you back in ten babe....yeah i'm at the interview now.

Now i'm a little confuzzled at this point, we're not hireing at the moment and it wouldnt be me that does the interviewing. And now he's stareing at me!!!!!

Me:.........yes?
RDB: I'm here for the job
Me: What job?
RDB speaking slowly as if i'm the idiot: THHEEE.....ONEEEE..........IIIIIIN.......THEEEE... ..PAAPEER

That annoys me, not only was he rude enough to burst into my office whilst taking on the phone i also had to turn my cd off.

Me: think you've got the wrong place mate.
RDB: No no, i dont think i have. I'm the best candidate for the job! You really must hire me! I'm the best Legal Secretary in yorkshire! YOU NEED ME!

Now i realise he wants the Law firm, 2 offices over i start to tell him this and he cuts me off, telling me how great he is. Now i'm pi**ed off

Me: Look MATE I.......Dont .....WORK........FOR..... A...LAW....FIRM
RDB stares at me for a few moments with those blank, vacant eyes: ......then why are you behind that desk?!
Me: I'm robbing the place...now bugger off
RDB: ........your not are you!?
Me: *sigh* no - but like i was trying to say this isnt the place your looking for, we're landscapers.....you want next door but one.
RDB: This isnt a law firm?!
Me thinking: you just crossed a shop floor covered with a mini digger, 3 work vans, various plants and racks of power tools covered in mud no, it isnt.
RDB:............oh....... well why didnt you say so! and then finally he does leave

[elysia]

Hahaha omg, that is classic.
Who goes into what they believe is an interview and is rude to the guy they believe will be interviewing them? After walking in on the phone, no less? I feel bad for him, he sounds imbalanced.

[Apathy]

Wow! I'd totally hire that guy! He sounds like the best.
What a douche.

[the_std]

Unfortunately, this man has deluded himself into believing that that attitude will cement him in his prospective bosses minds as a "go-getter". It's one of those "how to get hired" tips you see in magazines and stuff.

All it really does it make him an "ass-hole". How delusional.

[tollbaby]

Wow..... I'd take a quick walk over to the law firm to let them know what a prize they were interviewing

[Trayol]

If you're friendly with the law firm, you should tell him not to hire him. But hopefully they should know not to do so anyway.

Me: *sigh* no - but like i was trying to say this isnt the place your looking for, we're landscapers.....you want next door but one.

It seems that captain oblivious is luckey to be able to walk, talk and breathe at the same time. I have seen some people distracted by cell phones but this one is the worst. I hope he bumped up against some of the tools or the dozer and was covered in dirt for his job interview ( i mean hiring refusal).

Yorkshire? I'm in the Brighouse area. Anywhere close to you?

I hate to work in the same office as him if I was a secretary or receptionist of paralegal whose been working there for the past 30 years (or evn the past year). You know, he will act like he knows more then those people because he is a lawyer

[Leopardmadcat]

Make certain to call (or stop by) that law firm and inform them of the bozo's "real life skills" and "people skills".

[Samaliel]

You know, he will act like he knows more then those people because he is a lawyer

I can already hear him go all EW "I demand a discount / service right here, right now / whatever ! You have to ! It's the law ! I know, because I am a lawyer !"

Oh, wait flashback! This guy wanted the want ads and so I sign them out to him but ask him to take the whole section with him (he wanted to leave the medical job section with me). He started with "You will keep them behind the counter." Then he continues with "I'm a lawyer and a tax payer." And then I take the part he didn't want, just because I'm just sick of it but he starts to stare at me. So I get security, and of course he wants to talk to the person in charge. And of course he gives her this long sob story...ugh.

[DGoddessChardonnay]

Wow! I'd totally hire that guy! He sounds like the best.
What a douche.

He does sound like the "best" . . . if you've got an opening for a village idiot.

[Evil Queen]

I would have stopped by the office after that guy's interview and given the secretary a note about it.

[tropicsgoddess]

Time to bring out the ! If somebody like that asshat walked in for an interview, I would've sent him right back out the door.
