Life Hiring employees

Mr. Plow · 01-09-2009, 10:10 AM

We are in the process of hiring probably 4-5 new employees in addition to 1-2 new supervisors. Let me say that I am so glad that I have no responsibilities when it comes to hiring them. By the way some act, or talk, you would think that we should feel lucky that we have them in for them to think about our position.

In the last two days, we have had:

- 1 came in dressed as if they just got out of bed. Literally wearing flannels, sweatshirt, and slippers.

- 1 saying as soon as the interview started: "Let me tell you MY availability. I won't work any Saturdays/Sundays/Mondays, but I want full time hours."

- When asked about previous employers, literally cursed their names and used vulgar language in reference to them. Going so far as to call one a "Sl*t A$$ Whore" to the person interviewing them.

In the past, we have had people bring their kids with them to interviews. What is wrong with people? Do they not understand that first impression for a potential employer is important?

Anyone else got any dumb people stories?
