Overheard earlier today during an interview:
Interviewer: You understand that this job involves interacting with corner shops and retailers and wholesalers and really the lowest of the low...
Woman applicant: I understand completely. It is a challenge. But as you can see in my CV it is a challenge I have faced successfully before.
Interviewer: Hmm. But I hope you are aware of the... you know... sheer dirtiness involved in this profile. Street-work is tough and can be a total turn off for a lot of people... most people...
Woman: Oh no no no. (Gesticulating with both hands for effect) I love interacting with people. In fact when I meet these types of people... I just dont get turned off at all... in fact I get really really turned on! Really turned on! (Face huffing with effort...)
Interviewer: Er... ah... yes of course... ok...
