Torture, anyone?…

Anyone up for a good game of ‘Let’s torture your prospective employee’? I just returned from job interview number blah, blah, blah…..where I got to play a kind of psychological game of answering deep, introspective questions about life, etc. I showed up looking decent, hair neat, on time (early as a matter of fact) I expected the usual questions about my current employer and why I wanted to leave them. No, no, no! No such questions. Just a long list from an interviewer’s handbook. Questions about life and your psyche and the like. At least 10 pages worth. I kept waiting for him to ask the question about which 3 things I would most want to take with me to a deserted island. But I think they were just trying to decide whether I was an axe murderer or a child molester.
Well, where else can I apply? DO NOT say Best Buy! Perhaps I should just become a professional job interviewee!

My job interview lasted 3 1/2 hours, was filled with inappropriate psychological questions. The employer used to be in military intelligence. Employment consisted of enduring lude behavior, inflicted paranoia, daily mind control games and receiving right-wing propaganda e-mails and anti-Kerry/Clinton/Democrat e-mails almost daily. These were Republican entrepreneurs making a go at running a business. Plenty of psychological abuse, manipulation and invasion of privacy. Current and previous employees shared same experiences. Anyone else with similar stories?
