The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for January 12, 2023

I used to hate that question when I was on an interview

It was irrelevant and a waste of time!!

There are no 4-toed sloths. Just sayin’.

I wondered how they hired workers at the DMV!

Pompously, he responded, “Sittinging your chair”

The year is still young, you have plenty of time.

Consider please the sloth, sad-eyed:

What a creature hath God devised!

It pulls itself with languid ease

Through tasty foliage of trees.

.

Parties it attends so very seldom;

Its demeanor seems not fun but so glum.

Appointments made are hard to keep

When its highest speed is Creep.

.

And an insult on it pins Religion

When its name’s the seventh Deadly Sin

The shame of it the sloth does not worry;

It munches greens, and doesn’t hurry …

When did they arrange the interview? “Can you come in in a decade?” “Sure, if I hurry.”

The obvious question…how long did it take to get to the interview from the parking garage.

This is FUNNY, Scott. Thanks!

In government service, I think I’d fit in nicely at the DMV

His resume should be blank.

And if he skips getting his parking ticket validated.

Well, that sounds about right! You’re hired!

Interviewing to be a Ninja Sloth?

Such a stupid question anyway. Did anyone answering this in 2018 get this right?

Just like in the wild, you can slowly climb the corporate ladder…and come down to the lower level only to poop.

I do not see how soon he leaves as really being relevant considering how long it will take him just to get out of the chair

Say hello to the DMV employees when you pass them.

Must be extra long term parking.

“In the mirror, same as always.”

if he doesn’t score the job he can just go back to hangin’ with the boys…
