I think I blew an interview today.
The guy came out into the lobby and we shook hands and walked to his office.

I sat down opposite his desk and reached into my briefcase and pulled out a baloney sandwich in wax paper, and a cold can of beer. I unwrapped the sandwich, popped the beer, and started my meal.

He just stared at me while I was eating...he didn't say a word.

The silence was getting uncomfortable, so I broke the ice and said "What's the problem"?

Still, more silence. So I said "WHAT"?

He kind of looked down and shook his head, so I said "You're not a very good interviewer".

1. You should have offered him a bite.

3. Now that makes sense.
I wish that I brought you with me.

2. For the record, I was insulted that you didn't offer me any beer...
