  • So then a person could make his living by interviewing for jobs he’s not qualified for and could never get? I guess that probably wouldn’t happen.

    I didn’t used to hate the long interview process until I applied for a job that had me fill out like a hundred questions for background information. It was like, “Have you ever been convicted of embezzlement for an amount greater than $500?” No. “Have you ever been convicted of embezzlement for an amount less than $500?” No… “Have you ever been convicted of embezzlement for exactly $500?”

    Did you know that if they can guess your crime with enough specificity, legally you have to admit to it? At least that’s what I assume, based on the questionnaire. Like, “Have you ever been convicted of violating the endangered species act while crossing state lines in a class C vehicle on a Sunday?” And I’m like, “No, but you’re so close!”

    Anyway, I got the offer, but then they rescinded it when I asked for more money.

    I like to go the extra mile. I uncensor shit emphatically.

    A censored “shit” in a post about Star Trek? “SHIT” in big Star Trek font.

    “Cunt” in a post about the UK? Enjoy your “CUNT” dressed in a union jack.

    The censored word is “cock”? Here’s “COCK” in flesh tones with bulging purple veins on it.

    Fucking lean into it.









  • Got it. You shout to the five people and ask them if you should pull it. It’s likely at least one of the five will want you to take the chance, which means he accepted the risk, which means you no longer have to count his death as an adverse outcome. Now the odds are even and you can safely pull the lever.

    And if more than one of them says to pull it, then the odds are clearly in favor of pulling the lever.
