This post is inspired from a post on the blog East to West and Back (EWB), a hilarious post and I highly recommend.  I just got turned on to EWB, and I have to say I thoroughly enjoy the writer’s style and comedy.  In the post, the writer’s mother sent a list of interview questions that were actually asked for positions at some well known companies.

21) “What kitchen utensil would you be?” – Asked at Bandwidth.com, marketer candidate.

A corkscrew – because NOTHING should separate you from a bottle of wine.  Ever.

The real question is… how would you answer this?

20) “Pick two celebrities to be your parents.” – Asked at Urban Outfitters, sales associate candidate.

The blogger’s response?

Ellen DeGeneres and George Clooney. Pretty sure they can’t have a kid together – rather it’s unlikely to happen – but they could adopt and co-parent. Although – I don’t see George being tolerant of some of my “bits”. Whatever, George. Certain things just need a song.

My first thought was Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie cause they pretty much get whatever they want, but then I’d have to share the limelight with their ethnically integrated pseudo Brady Bunch, and well… that’s not how I roll. Pretty sure I would go with Stanley Tucci (love him!) and Patricia Clarkson, because let’s be honest – they are hands down the coolest movie parents ever in Easy A. If you haven’t seen it, stop what you are doing immediately and watch it. Unless you’re an air traffic controller or a bus driver or something, in which case please continue what you are doing because people’s lives are at stake here.

19) “Have you ever stolen a pen from work?” – Asked at Jiffy Software, software architect candidate.

My response?  Does the word “duh” mean anything to you?  (Thank you Kristy Swanson, Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
