> MJM, Good Luck on the interviews.  Thought I'd pass on

> quit hiring pilots for about five years.  They put him
> in the "hiring pool" so he sold his house, moved to
> Memphis, and then it STOPPED!  For five years.  He and
> his wife found menial work (no one else was hiring
> either) and got to know everyone on the interview
> board socially.  When they started hiring again he was
> called for another interview, mostly to satisfy the
> legal boys, and to make sure he didn't have any
> outstanding felonies.  When they got to the question,
> "What is your dream job?", instead of saying, "Oh, I
> want to work for XYZ corporation doing (whatever
> you're applying for") he said "I want to be Vanna
> White on Wheel of Fortune".  The interview board all
> looked at each other and one finally said "WHAT?". 
> "Yea, I wanna be Vanna, she makes hundreds of
> thousands a year for flipping letters for an hour, I
> can spell, I could do that".  He got the job anyway. 
> Brad.
