THE LIBERAL THREAD #3- No Debate Please

Not open for further replies.
Anyone want to hear about my interview yesterday?
How silly of me, of course you do, I am the center of everyone’s universe.

Upon waking yesterday, I could sense that it was going to be a day filled with chaos. My middle child woke me up with his yelling as he ran naked from his father who was trying to get “Bob the Builder” underwear on him; it seems my son wanted “Buzz Lightyear”.
After making my way downstairs, I noticed it was snowing and decided to leave earlier to prevent the weather induced lateness. As I am walking out the door my youngest gives me a big hug with her little syrup covered hands. I unstuck myself from my daughter and ran to the closet to find new clothes.
One again I am heading for the door, only to stop dead in my tracks by a comment from DH. “No necklace or earrings” I give DH my meanest stare and a quick hand gesture, out the door I go.
I arrived early and the receptionist was pleasant offering me coffee and tea. I only had to wait five minutes before my interviewer came out and introduced himself.
He informs me that the interview will take place in the main conference room, however, instead of pointing me in the right direction. The man gives me a little pat on my butt and nods in the right direction. I say a little silent prayer, that this was an accident.
As the interview progresses he gives me background info on him and the other two male partners. However, when he mentions the sole woman partner it is just to point out that she is a “good gal”. Mind you I read this “good gal’s” bio in preparation for the interview. She has practiced for twenty years, has 4 licenses two masters, and a doctorate.
His questions for me were more like concerns, how do I handle driving in the snow, how I feel leaving the office when it is dark, etc... WTH?
The interview concludes and he walks me to the reception area, I go to shake his hand, however, he once more pats me on my behind and thanks me for me time. I gave him the same stare I gave DH earlier and leave.
:mad:
 
That's exactly where that comes from. I'll go out for lunch 3 or 4 times during a typical work week and I typically flip on Limbaugh while I'm in the car for a chuckle. I'm always amused to hear the exact same crap spouted here as had just been said on the fat one's show. What's weird is, when called on it, it's hard to find a single Con who will admit to listening to him...

Yep. They listen and regurgitate. For them, Limbaugh is "the one"

What's Limbaugh? That stinky cheese? :rolleyes1

:lmao: :lmao:

The poor cheese, have to be associated with him.
 
Beyond the deranged ranting (which is getting sooo much worse with Limbo :rotfl: ) I love how they spend the first 30 seconds worshiping Rush or Hannity and reassuring each other what great Americans they are!!:lmao:

Reminds me of talking to my dog..."whose a good doggie?" "You are! You're a good dooogie!!" "YES YOU ARE!!":rotfl2:

:thumbsup2 :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

OMG So true!

You're a good American!

No you're a good American!

:rotfl2:

:rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:
 

Ok peeps I gotta go make the drinks now but remember..........

You're good Liberals! Yes you are!!!:rotfl:

May the gods of arugula smile down upon you:cloud9: .

WHAT!!!!!!! What kind of firm is this? Are you a lawyer, because in my experience, you will never find more sexual harassment than in a law firm. Booty patting indeed!

Holy cow.

I'll repeat it ... holy cow! He patted your butt?!? A real-life Denny Crane. I thought that the antics of the lawyers on Boston Legal was just fiction.

ETA: I was interviewing for a position as a computer programmer about 15 years ago and I was asked about my sexual fantasies. I complained to HR and I was obviously offered the job. Just as obviously, I declined it. I didn't need to work with men like that.

Before going back into the classroom this year, my job had me in the car a lot driving from school to school to help new teachers. The fm band on my radio only worked when it was cool outside (in the morning), so I listened to am most of the time. I too would flip back between shows to see what the neo-nuts were saying. I could only take a few minutes of it though and would have to flip back to AA.

Run, Forrest, Run!!!!!!!!

Now that sounds a great person to work for (not!)

I used to work at at firm where all the over-40 male lawyers were very conservative (unusual in a law firm, but we represented police and fire departments) and religious. The things they did would curl your hair, particularly how they treated their secretaries, some of whom were little old ladies! It was almost like they were trying to see how much they could get away with.

I won't even go into the salacious details of a lawyer I worked for in grad school, except to say that he once asked for a ride to the airport and then answered the door in a towel--a hand towel! And then proceeded to conduct a meeting with me at his kitchen table. I mean really, how is one supposed to react to that! And this guy is very famous in certain circles for giving expert testimony in sexual harassment cases. Freaky!

"Denny Crane", that's exactly what I was thinking as I was reading!!! lol

'sexual fantasies?!?!" omg, in this job market do they think they can get away with anything??

These would be funny stories if they were not so, so, so rrrrr, typical.
 
Quick announcement:

Comcast is launching an all Obama channel. 24hr Obama coverage.
 
Denny Crane indeed! and wasn't he supposed to have mad cow? This guy has mad Pig..I'll repeat..Run Forest Run! :scared:

I edited my sentence to make it clearer that my interview happened a long time ago. The interviewer was just a geeky kid who thought he was making a funny joke. The question was the final one on a list of questions he gave me to read and respond to. Ha. Ha.

That is nuts!! :sad2:
 
I just got a phone call from American Airlines.

My flight to BWI is overbooked (where's that head about to explode smiley?)

so they offered to rebook me... into Reagan National! (where's that happy smiley now?)

If the girl from AA hadn't offered that, there'd be a mushroom cloud over the Caribbean right now

Happy dance! :cool1:

Mr. Fist-punching-the-face.

But...I can see you're a much better person than I. ;)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The kids at work keep asking for some...but I'm less socialist with my liquor...so I told them no.
