A job interview with a surprise ending. |
THE JOB INTERVIEW Hello Mr. Popperstien. It's a pleasure to meet you. (During the lengthy job interview, Stephen, the applicant, begins a silent dialog, daydreaming )... My, what a huge pimple that guy has on his nose! Sheesh! - I don't think I've ever seen a pimple that large. It must be an inch wide. I guess it could be an ingrown hair? Gosh, is it ever red! This guy is talking to me as if he doesn't even know it's there. Maybe it's a spider bite or a boil.... Nah, that thing has to be a pimple, it's white in the middle. I should buy this guy a rat to chew that thing off! The rest of his face looks fine, but all I can do is stare at that monstrous mound. Man, what I wouldn't give to pop that thing! I could just reach out and say, "Here, let me fix that for you". I'd have to move out of the way - I bet that thing's really under pressure! I'm probably not going to get this job anyway. Besides, cleaning portable outhouses just isn't my style. I'd be doing this guy a favor, by popping that thing. Who knows, it might save his life! He's asking for it! I can totally hear it crying out "POP ME, POP ME!" It's like fate, I mean, his name is Popperstein. My wife will kill me if I don't get a job. But at least I won't come home smelling like poop every day! Ok, this is zit, I'm totally going for it!!! OH MY GOD Mr. Popperstein, I'm so very sorry I poked you in the eye.... I was just trying to.... (Exiting the office).... Dang,_ I almost had that thing! My wife's gonna KILL ME! |
