When You Hire a Man . . .


Men are a mystery – not only to women, but to themselves.  We guys often do or say things that cause us, sometimes long after (and sometimes in court), to ask ourselves: “Now why did I DO that?”  The number of books, videos, lectures, and seminars on this tantalizing subject are beyond count.  I don’t pretend to be an expert in the field of Virility Explication, but I notice things.  And I’ve noticed exactly 5 things that all men have in common.  So if you plan on marrying one, hiring one, or living next door to one, you need to heed the following:
1.       Dirty Socks.  Men do not believe in bacteria or in bad odors.  A slice of pizza falls on the ground and they will simply pick it up, brush it off, and continue eating it.  Give them a slice of tropical durian (known world-wide as “stink fruit”) with limburger cheese slathered on it, and tell them it’s the latest food craze in Irish pubs, and they’ll snarf it down before you can say Pepe Le Pew.  Men like to wear their socks to bed, and they don’t like to hear anyone yapping about the smell.  There is no smell; not to them – just a thick, musty odor that pumps up their testosterone.  Men will wear a single pair of socks until even the germs thriving in them give up and depart in disgust. 
2.       Drinking straight from the bottle or carton.  What’s the big deal?  We’re just trying to save having to wash a bunch of glasses.  Don’t be such a crybaby!
3.       Remote Controls.  Of any kind.  They belong to the man.  Not the boy or the girl or the women or the grandmother or the kindly old aunt – so keep your ever-lovin’ mitts off that TV flipper!  The man opens and shuts the garage door.  The man flies the remote-control toy hovercraft.  If it’s a flat, black piece of plastic with buttons on it, just leave it alone until a man can take control.  Otherwise you’re in for one big hissy fit.
4.       Hot Sauce.  Men use it as aftershave, they love it THAT MUCH.  Observe a bunch of guys at the local taco joint any evening after work.  When their order arrives they start pulling out their own bottles of hot sauce, with monikers like “Devil’s Fart” and “Chunky Chernobyl”.  As they ladle it on, the atmosphere around their table wavers with the miasma of capsicum vapor.  Eyes watering, brows melting like wax; they assure each other what an AWESOME time they are having.  If you love your man, there is only one thing you can do for him in this kind of scenario; keep the Preparation H handy.
5.       Deafness.  Men hear only what they want to hear.  And that isn’t very much.  It your sentences don’t have the words “sex”, “eat”, “drink”, or “football” in them you will never be heard by a man – not if you set yourself on fire and yell at them through a bullhorn.  Use icing to write important messages to them on cake.  Or have it etched on their bowling ball.

Tips on Answering Those Tricky Interview Questions


"What is your greatest weakness?"
This classic tricky interview question appears to be asking you to reveal your shortcomings, but if you use the right tactics it can be a golden opportunity to show that you're right for the job.
When you're being interviewed you want to show yourself in the best possible light, so what do you do if you are asked to talk about something you find difficult? There are certain interview questions that recruiters love and candidates sometimes stumble over, and this is one of them. Think about it in advance and you’ll be in a much better position to come up with a response that tackles the question but still helps you to come across in a positive light.

How not to reply to the interview question ‘What is your biggest weakness?’

‘Uh, I don’t know. Um, I guess I have a big weakness for chocolate. No, wait! I get stressed under pressure when up against a tight deadline and tend to procrastinate.’

Why is this answer unlikely to get you the job you want?

Most jobs nowadays involve some pressure, so avoid giving the impression that you’re not going to be able to cope. Also, you need to stick to work-related skills – this shows that you take the interview seriously and have a professional outlook.

What is the recruiter really asking?

The problem with this question is that you’re being asked about your shortcomings, when your instinct, in an interview situation, is to keep your flaws as well hidden as possible. What you need to do is to frame your answer so as to give it a positive spin.
This question is designed to test analytical abilities and self-awareness, so having a confident answer to this will impress. Avoid taking a self-deprecating approach in an attempt to win the interviewer over.

So how should you tackle the question ‘What is your biggest weakness?’

You could show that, although you may have had a problem in the past, you’ve taken steps to combat it. For example: ‘I used to find that pressure got to me but I’ve found ways to minimise this. I went on a time management course at university, which has helped me to organise myself and reduce my stress.’
The best response, however, is to describe a weakness that could also be viewed as a strength, such as, ‘Because I tend to get very passionate about the work I do, I get frustrated if others don’t share my enthusiasm.’
Most strengths – attention to detail, teamworking and so on – have the potential to shade over into weakness. If you’re a natural teamworker, do you find it difficult to cope with conflict, or to assume leadership responsibilities? If you’re great at the details, do you sometimes lose sight of the bigger picture? Another way to approach this question is to think about how you overcome the potential downside of your biggest strength.

Use your research into the employer and the job

This is a good opportunity for you to draw on your research into the organisation and the role you are applying for. If there are certain kinds of task you feel you do not excel at and these are not going to be key requirements, you could make these the focus of your answer. However, it's still worth trying to show how you manage when you are called upon to draw on skills that are not your natural strength.
For example, if you are applying for a sales role where you are going to have tough regular targets to meet and will be working in a competitive environment, you could explain how you find deadlines and targets motivating and enjoy the buzz of striving to achieve, but sometimes find it difficult to sustain your enthusiasm and commitment in a slower-paced set-up where you don't have clearly defined responsibilities and feel you aren't sufficiently challenged. Then you could explain how you coped in such a situation, even though it went against the grain of your natural inclinations. For example, perhaps you used your initiative and sought out additional responsibilities.
Alternatively, if you are applying for a job where teamworking is going to be essential and you will need to support your colleagues and draw on their expertise, you could discuss a time when you have found it hard to keep going because you were working in isolation, and explain how you overcame this.
