Job interview during which you realised you weren't getting the Job.

[Tony Hibbert's Wife]

When asked whether I'd worked with the firm as counterparty before, answering "yes, your precedents are out of date and don't deal with the Brexit transition regs" and the lass interviewing me just stared at me like I'd pinched off a turd on the table.

I was trying to sound knowledgeable but it sounded like i was having a go at her team. Idiot. I really wanted that job.

When the guy asked me what would be the lowest salary I'd accept
By then I'd half decided I didnt like the guy anyway so gathered my papers...it was way back then.
Nah give me the job and pay me the going rate, but I'm not picking a figure so you can give it to the guy whose cheapest

I went for an interview when the interviewee didn't believe how much I made in the last job.
1983...£110 a week,flat rate, painting.
He didn't believe me,said it must have been bonus /price work.
It wasn't.
Anyway got the job...lasted a week.
Asked to work Saturday, I said,no chance, Everton are playing.
They said you must,I said,no I don't.

Changed days,although in the building trade,maybe not.
