Many, many years ago, I had a job interview with a very inexperienced manager. He asked “Tell me your biggest flaw” as if this was going to be a deep probing question. At that moment, I decided there is no way I was going work here or for this person, so I answered:“Here is my phone (it was a flip phone so that tells you how long ago this was!), Speed button 1 is my wife. Ask her my biggest flaws. I’ll leave your office, grab a bite and come back in about an hour.” He laughed, I laughed and the interview ended. A few days later, declined the (piss-poor) offer. Good choice too.

The only fix you need is to dump that wife

I guess that got him off the hook! (No wonder psychiatrists charge so much!)

Sounds like it’s the wife who should be there on the couch.

All you guys, just chill out. This could just as well be a woman on the couch with a list from her husband.

The bottom of that list, not shown, is a roll of TP filled with perceived faults and you can’t shrink it, it needs to be flushed
