Sandwich Board Man (No, Not That One) Got a Job

I was wondering if that would work.

I did have ‘vigorous’ interview : one lasted 3 hours and 45 mn. I was drained but I got the job

I never said he couldn’t get a job that way. I just wondre what idiot company would hire him. Obviously, one that wants some publicity.

“In a more hopeful sign of the times, Joshua Persky got rid of his sandwich board and demonstrated that creative people can bail themselves out without any help from the government.”

Ah, yes. Personal responsibility! Which is just code for the feudal pre-destination concept of “deserving one’s station in life.”

Antifa’s absolutely right to point out that such ‘gimmick’ cases are exceptional. If everyone did it (or something analoguous), we’d just be back to square one and you’d have to figure out an even better way to stand out. It’s a zero-sum game.

Every now and again some rich guy says “well, all anyone has to do is stick it to the bastards and get rich, like I did, so I have no sympathy, etc. etc.”.

How presposterous this is can be readily understood by imagining a world comprised solely of wealthy people sticking it to each other, there being no other category of people left.

Any social theory that negates itself if applied universally is not one to be taken seriously.

I’m in the process of hiring a person to my team. I like this guy’s creativity. In my opinion, you HAVE to stand out with nearly 7% unemployment. This guy has the skill and he showed he was willing to market them.

Less than four hours of interviews? My current job subjected me to six almost-straight hours. Thank goodness for caffeine.
