At an interview recently, I was asked to document wrapping a Christmas
present. It was such a stupid "test" that I did it half-heartedly, and
left. I didn't even ask if there would be a second interview...especially
since the company was composed of 5 young guys in a garage. I know, Bill
Gates started that way...

An interview a few years ago gave me an IQ test. It always surprises people
when I blow these away since I don't really "look" like I can have an IQ as
high as I do (148). The interviewer was shocked that I finished the test as
quickly as I did, and ushered me out as if she was afraid I was going to ask
for HER job!
