Default Since I have a job interview tomorrow I decided to watch James Interview for tips-lol

Damm James did just about everything wrong in this interview and was wondering why he didn't get the job

1. Kept interrupting the interviewer
2. Asking what day he starts and the job wasn't offered yet
3. Telling the me he needs the job because he has a family
4. Telling the man he WANTS the job in a threatening tone
5. Throwing a piece of paper at the man before he left

LOL, reminder of what not to do tomorrow..

How in the hell did James get an interview with only having a 6th grade education, also did James really think he was going to get the job after lying on the application about his age, did Florida as his supportive wife assist him with filing out the job application knowing he only had a 6th grade education

I thought it was a computer error that messed up his age?

I thought the interviewer just assumed that the computer messed up his age by moving on to the next interview question, because after James was trying to explain very hard to correct his age, it still did not add up correctly, it would have shown that James served in the military at 10 years old according to James explaination, so James still LIED---lol

You keep doing stuff like that - well, in the words of James himself:
You might as well fire yourself, since they're not gonna hire you anyway.

That was a dumb a$$ episode for James Evans. He decides to go back home because he wasn't feeling confident and never even tried to get the job.

Remember this quote

"IF we had faster bus service I would have gotten that job"


HUH??? LMAO

Umm, James did do the right thing and that was: GO THE HELL HOME because James lied and the way he conducted his interview with the interviewer, why should James have stayed after that interview?, please tell me why?

The episode I mentioned was another one involving James having a chance to work somewhere. At the end of that one, James said something like "I decided to fire myself, since they're not gonna hire me anyway". AKA, he didn't even try for the job. I thought I'd use that quote from another episode to tie in to this one.

Maybe James have some common sense afterall, think of it, even though James knew that he does not have the qualifying skills for the job, he will go to the job interview, already knowing that he is NOT qualified and get turned down at the end, so therefore James knew that he was not going to get the job before he went to the interview and sat down for example: why would a nurse go for a astranaut interview if the nurse is not qualified for the astranaut job?

I can't remember what that job was for when he decided to come back home.

BTW: In real life a wife would not have put up with her husband not going to a interview. It would have been a huge argument LOL

Correct, and I will find the episode when James decided to come back home after the job interview, to solve this mystery

It's been many years since I last saw that episode, but I beleive it was a management training program for youths, not a job per say, that's why James lied about his age.
