Passion

Posted by Loz

Don't they get it? I don't care about their passion. 6 interviewees today (for a frankly shitty job any idiot could - and some idiot will - end up doing) and every one of them whined on about their passion. 

I DON'T BELIEVE YOU and if I did, aghhh! sincerity is the way scarier option than cynicism. "I'm just so passionate about blah". Are you? I DON'T CARE. Just tell me you'll turn up on time, don't gibber too much, ideally don't make me feel old by turning up looking oh so fashionable ... and then THE JOB'S YOURS.

What is it with passion right now? I blame XFactor. I'll have weeping and violin sob stories in interviews next "and then my hamster died..."  I thought you Englishers were frigid socks in bed, wet fish, stiff upper lip, limp everything else types. It's all getting very Californian.

Dan P - I get it now, letting off that steam on my blog would have upset someone with sacking powers and it would be me the interviewee. The cat has been relieved of my rantings for tonight and is very grateful :)
