GeneralRe: A Stupid HR does it againmemberjesarg29 Dec '12 - 1:34 
It's a multi-dimensional, time-travelling company, obviously. From what I suspect, you're just a regular earthling born in the 20th century who hasn't yet put down a down payment on his first time machine.
 
What you need to do is have your future self loan you his time machine, travel back to 2008 for the initial Android release, work until the present, then time travel back to 2008 again and work for a competing company that puts your previous self's company out of business, causing a paradoxical time anomaly that can only be remedied by working as a "Mobile App Consultant" for whatever the job posting company was.
 
With that in mind, HR's request seems reasonable.

Well, there are some possibilities here:
 
1) The number "10" is written in binary.
2) It's a test to see how you react when confronted with frustrating situations.
3) They have a secret robotics laboratory where they are building actual androids.

There have been stories of people putting pets in microwaves to dry them. That is even worse, and leaves one hell of a mess.

The case was with a woman who used to put her cat in the oven for a few minutes to dry it after a bath.
Then she bought a microwave. Case closed.
