Interviewer: can I get your references?

Me: *sighing* probably not; nobody else does

@rebrafsim Real talk: at my interview for my current job, someone on the hiring committee dropped a Simpsons reference and it was then and there I decided I was going to take the job if it was offered.

It's nice to be somewhere where "there's your answer, fish-bulb" is appreciated.

@rebrafsim I'd be tempted to reply "Do you mean 'May I have'? What's the magic word?" but I wouldn't . . . (This is a definite regional usage difference, I think.)
@rebrafsim Last two companies I worked for closed up shop. Current company made noises about not hiring me because they couldn't reach the previous two. Looking forward to the next one!

@rebrafsim their fault, not yours

uneducated bastards who watch too much TV...

@rebrafsim No one gets me. I'm the wind, baby.
