Unbelievable. I have an interview with a Wall Street firm next Monday.

[LeftyFingerPop]

Never in a million years did I think they would call me.

I'm a little nervous to be honest.

I fudged my resume a little.

Quick question for you...

What is a "stock"?

[TK421]

1. I'm not sure, but I think it comes with a compass and this thing that tells time

[kentauros]

2. It's what they make in soup kitchens

before making the soup itself.

[BuelahWitch]

3. It's what's left over when you cook a chicken

Haven't you ever heard of "chicken stock"?

[Odin2005]

4. TRAITOR! You are working for the enemy!

:cry:

[Bucky]

5. Don't worry about being ignorant. If you're in the financial sector, it's practically a requirement.

Just bone up on a lot of meaningless management buzzwords and you won't have to worry about what the firm is actually doing.

Good luck!

[BlueCollar]

6. Here's the interview answer to "what makes you qualified?

"I know how to walk fast and look worried"

[Call Me Wesley]

7. Just ask for one of the Lehman brothers to talk to.

They know about the same as you know about 'stocks,' but you'll get huge boni. Tell them I sent you, and include '004581-A209/32' in your message. They'll get it.

[bluedigger]

8. I hope you enjoy your future employment! This is a stock.

[KamaAina]

9. So I take it you're interviewing for CEO?

Or CFO, perhaps? :P

10. Stock's deliver babies, you ninny.

[BlueCollar]

11. You owe me a new keyboard...n/t

[graywarrior]

12. Put it on Skinner's tab.

:+

[BlueCollar]

13. based on a GD post I made earlier I'm guessing Skinner's

gonna contact me soon. Probably a bad time to raise the issue..

[graywarrior]

16. You'll have to stand in line

[rug]

14. Are you up-to-date with COBOL?

[cynatnite]

15. Don't tell 'em where you hang out. n/t
