thanks for all the help NOW Brad.

I was told by Bowling Green's career placement services that my Hell's Angels allegiance coupled with my extensive Star Trek: The Next Generation-inspired wardrobe and penchant for Candyland made me the ideal canditate in my field. Should I have not worn my lucky "Jean-Luc, hoist my Picard" T-shirt to the last interview?

Gosh, and I won't be able to buy any bananas or pull the ol' sock trick because I just offloaded my nickels and dimes at CoinStar.

Back to the drawing board I guess.

Maybe a 9 to 5 job isn't for you. Another way to go is inventing something that doesn't require you to do any work.

CoinStar is a good example. In fact, if you have any spare time, just go and stand in front of the CoinStar machine with a paper sign around your neck that says 'CoinStar' and take people's change.

When they ask for their money, put the change in a sock and hit them over the head with it! Ok, that's it. I can't give away anymore milion dollar tips like this.

Any bonus points if you add on that you successfully made a drinking game out of the game LIFE?

The game of drinking LIFE is so much like a job that if someone included it on an application, I doubt the employer would think that they could handle an extra work load.

I wouldn't shy away from your Trivial Pursuit knowledge though. In fact, I would fasion a necklace made out of those different colored pies and wear it to the interview.

wow

That WOULD be cool.
They'd be like badges of honor or something.
