graduated from what top school
not good at what they went to school for
How did they graduate then?

Add it there is people like me. I was never hired anywhere a psychologist has blocking power.
But despite being crazy, I solve complex problems that some people wouldn't be able to, and noone ever regretted hiring me, that I know of.
Yeah... it's kind of hard to have any regrets once you're dead.
-
You were ed on this joke
Because you quickly made them regret other things, like being disposed of in four separate dumpsters?
But I solved their problem, didn't I?
-
Okay, but if you come to interview with me in a polo and slacks I will laugh at you. That doesn't mean that everyone will. But I would.
If your goal was to ensure that most of us here wouldn't work with you even if you were the last employer on earth, then congratulations, mission accomplished, etc...
And I say that as someone who doesn't mind dressing up.

Why thanks! :)

If that résumé crossed my desk, I would put it in the circular file
I'm not involved in the hiring process anymore (mainly because we haven't hired anyone in years, and even when we did Management tended to ignore our recommendations), but I'd be torn between reactions.
Provided his skills were relevant, I'd probably bring him in for an interview just to meet the guy. Call it a morbid sense of curiosity, but I have got to know why he thought that was a good idea.
On the other hand, I may just toss it in the 'nope' pile because I sincerely doubt he'd fit in with the rest of the team. Had it been a Star Wars themed resume, though? Totally different story.
Of course, what do I know? I suck at writing resumes.

I see nothing wrong with that as interview attire, actually. Dress for the situation. To each their own.
-
Sure, if you're interviewing at a super casual company, unlike any of the ones I've worked at/was thinking of.
Also, for fuck's sakes, don't wear those "performance" polos to work. You might as well be wearing a collared football jersey.
-
if (interviewer == nullptr) discard();
Somehow, I think it didn't affect him that much
:P
I bet he gets a lot more people to read his CV. It's hard to tell if it increases or reduces his chances. Anyone that find that acceptable would certainly read it, as it grabs a lot of atention.

I resemble that remark. ;)

Add it there is people like me. I was never hired anywhere a psychologist has blocking power.
Why is it that my presence seems to clone neurotic people?
Am I emitting some kind of digitally transferable neurotoxin?
Or is it some cosmic law?
I often wonder this because it works for business too.
Everywhere I go is empty when I arrive and full when I leave. It's like the universe says, "well if xaade thinks it's great, it must be".
I bet if I started acting like a monk, it would draw everyone around me into meditation.

Alternatively, we could just laugh at you.
-
you laugh at monks?
-
Yeah, why wouldn't I?
-
Dress professional, but do not try to make yourself a genuinely better person.
Yeah, I take "professionalism" even less seriously now.
-
...
Do you take even more seriously now?
-
In other news.....
People think that 13 / 3 = 4.3 million.
EDIT: fixed.

are you getting on about now?

Probably this thing that's been making the rounds online:

Darnit, got the wrong math wrong...

Those dumb fucks are either massively dumb fucks, or just smart enough to come up with something that went viral.
I checked out their Twitter. It could go either way really...
-
I'll use it as a lesson that when it comes to solving problems with someone else's money, people think money is infinite.
-

The horrible thing is how wrong your wrong math would have to be in order to make it actually work.
-
Darnit, got the wrong math wrong...
If you're going to point out how other people are wrong, you can't get it wrong how they're wrong, or you'll be wrong yourself and then the people who are wrong can say "look, he's wrong! our detractors have no credibility!", and then whoever tries to fight the wrongness in the future will be ignored as being wrong before they can really make the case and then wrong becomes the new, well-established right and will never stop being wrong.
-
Please.... gods of math... forgive me... I failed you!!!

Sure, if you're interviewing at a super casual company, unlike any of the ones I've worked at/was thinking of.
Dress professional to your interview. I always wear a suit and tie (which is pretty much the only time).
- It demonstrates that you at least KNOW there's a thing as proper business attire
- In the VERY LIKELY scenario where the company has a dress code, you've shown you can meet it
- In the ALSO LIKELY scenario where the company is casual, the worst they can say is "nice suit, but if you get the job, dress casual"
- In the EXTREMELY RARE scenario where the company is casual and douches, they'll mock your suit and not hire you because "you're too much of a square". Fuck those people anyways.
So statistically, you will come out on top dressing up for an interview. Maybe you can convince them to look past your torn t-shirt and jeans and interview Teh Realz U-- but really, in a competitive battle, why give the company a reason not to hire you?
-
These are the points I've been trying to make the whole time.

I guess I have it easy because I wear slacks as casual attire on the reg.

A bunch of Japanese companies use some kind of blood type pseudoscience.
Pretty sure that'd be declared a protected class in the US, if it ever came up.
Apparently, that's as big there as astrology is in the west.
... not at all?
I guess Nancy Reagan back in the 80s.

I don't even own a suit, and only hired one once for a school formal: didn't even wear one to my wedding. But I did have a nice button-up shirt and tie.
I'm on my way to work wearing t-shirt, shorts and thongs (flip-flops in en-US). So suck it, dress codes!

Close enough. Looks professional.

In theory my office is very casual. My boss / owner of the company is in jeans and t-shirt all the time. He even said that he appreciated the suit and tie, but would fire me if I showed up in a tie again. =)
Though fifteen+ years of wearing dress pants and some form of sweater or polo shirt (I think that's the right term-- like a golf shirt?) is a hard habit to break. I just wouldn't be comfortable wearing anything else to work. Feels wrong.
Oh, and I've never worked in any office that allowed shorts or open-toed shoes. I think it's a temperate-climate thing. Shorts is just frowned upon for some reason.

Probably because of the liability concerns from people going blind due to reflections off of the pasty white legs.
-
thongs (flip-flops in en-US).
I can't get away with that because of our warehouse (which I do occasionally need to enter to access some IT equipment). Stupid OSHA regulations require closed toe shoes.
-
I'm surprised you're not required to wear steel-toed shoes. Something could fall on and crush your foot.
-
My brother in law used to work at a piggery and he couldn't wear steel toed boots. Because a sow would crush even that into his foot and cause further issues trying to remove the boot.
-
I thought I'd have problems the first time I did it (i brought shoes just in case) but the HR lady just told me to not get run over by a scooter. We have a scooter track . This summer is the first time I've worn shorts all day to work: I've brought other clothes other times in case of going for swim/run but now I was "screw it!"
-

Out warehouse primarily handles industrial-manufacturing equipment, so this shit is heavy. Wearing steel toed boots is generally not recommended because:
falling objects
wcould crush even that into his foot and cause further issues trying to remove the boot.

I love how someone seems to have poorly erased someone else's twitter tag and inserted their own. Half-assed incompetence FTW!
-

In any case, I'm glad you're not my accountant.

I've seen something making a similar mistake re: Obamacare costs. "It's costing $300 million, there are 300 million people in the US, why not just give everyone a million dollars?" kind of thing. Rather amusing.
In any case, I'm glad you're not my accountant.
Only three orders of magnitude off on the long scale!

Or sub-tropical. My job in Tampa allowed that--most people wore t-shirts, shorts, and flip-flops.
(Well, at first, because I was working in a casual satellite office in a cow pasture. I am not exaggerating with that last sentence. Then two weeks after I was hired they moved us all to downtown Tampa.)
-
And of course giving everyone a few million dollars won't have any inflationary consequences.
Meanwhile, I had a similar experience - I turned up in the usual suit+tie affair for both interviews at the place I currently work where everyone is in t-shirts and jeans (except the one guy who comes in wearing shorts most of the year around... in fucking England where it ain't that warm) and the boss man said to lose the tie.
I did actually then gradually 'acclimatise' to the office environment rather than just turning up day 1 in t-shirt and jeans; first week was shirt + trousers, week 2 was shirt + jeans, week 3 was t-shirt + jeans. Partly for my own piece of mind (I never worked anywhere before here that was casual) and partly to show outwardly a certain amount of 'fitting in' since I knew that would be a problem. Kinda hard to fit in when you're a long way ahead of your coworkers in competence...

I'm the only guy in my office with long hair. Everyone else is so 'normal'.
