Did he use the old 2-1 punch?
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

Yes! Then I punched him in the guts, and he died - chocked on his own vimto

I'm often frustrated by people that do what I'm about to do, but many other times I find it funnier than the joke itself..
Given that the joke says he was arrested for GHB, rather than making the distinction that he reported being arrested for GHB, clearly, he wasn't drunk - he was on GHB and was arrested for drug possession. He'll get less than if he was caught for giving out a beating.

Now, I know it's a joke, and all that, but I have to be petty (snigger) myself...
If you kidnapped them, you're not a thief, you're a kidnapper.
The punchline should be
but I'm no Petty criminal

Don't come around here no more.

The word genius was whispered into my ear, the first thing I ever heard, while I was still mewling in my crib. So it never occurred to me that I wasn't until middle age.
- Orson Welles
I am definitely going to take the same approach with my kids. Orson Welles did not turn out so bad. I'm sure by to the time he realised he was not a genius it was too late to stop behaving like one.

More seriously, parenting advice, don't tell your kids they are going to succeed at everything because they are genius. That create an understanding that solving problem is an innate skill... creating little grit. Tell them, yeah, just work a little harder and the world shall be yours! That will prime them for success much better!

Hi All,
Does anybody use the Monster web site, in the UK there TV adverts have been replaced by Reed (so annoying...)
I just applied for a role that linked through to the Monster site. A lot easier to use than I remember... 
|

The problem with Monster and their ilk is numerous:
1. it is trolled by Indian "placement" agencies, probably off-shore. 95% of the calls I get are from nearly impossible to understand Indian speakers with names like "Jack." As rude, racist, arrogant and type casting as it may sound (and actually is), I literally have taken to hanging up the instant I hear an Indian accent.
2. nobody actually pays attention to flags like "will NOT relocate."
3. nobody seems to look at anything except the last 6 months of experience. I have 2 years of Ruby on Rails and 10 years of C#. What do I get calls for? RoR.
4. If not trolled by #1, the remainder are American head hunters. I have, not once, received a call from an actual company looking to hire.
5. When I apply for a job, I invariably discover I just "applied" via a head hunter agency, not the direct company. I don't think companies directly advertise on Monster anymore.
6. I have never actually gotten a job through Monster (and no, it's not because I hang up on them.)
Waste of time, in my opinion. It's who you know that can recommend you that has always been the way I've gotten a job. The only exceptions are cold calls/emails because someone wanted to hire me as a result of a Code Project article I've written.

Not really but a monster recruited me some 17 years ago...  (Now I'm looking a way to get out...)
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

I actually got one job from monster. It lasted almost 10 years. Nothing since then though. I use Dice but have similar experience as the others. Mostly barely English speakers wanting to know if I would move 3000 miles to the middle of nowhere for a temp job that will only last 3 months. And, when I tell them "no", they always come back with, "but you would be a perfect fit!". Not too often but more often than Monster, I get a call for an actual real job from an actual corporate person. They usually have equally unrealistic expectations though.

If you do search on monster or dice, find a somewhat unique phrase in the job posting.
Then search the Internet and you can usually find the job posting from the original company and bypass the headhunters completely.

You can do that, but many HR departments have a preferred suppliers list which means they'll only accept applications from agencies
