    If programmers were hired like Carpenters

    interviewer - 'So how much experience do you have with this?'
    Programmer - 'I've only just begun'
    Interviewer -'Do you live far away'
    Programmer - 'Close to you'

    last question - 'any holidays or days when you can't be available>'
    'Rainy days and Mondays'



    NEXT DAY:

    Ring...

    Interviewer: Hello?
    Programmer: Hello. Remember me, I'm the Programmer you interviewed for the jambalaya job. Just wanted to touch base to see if you've made a decision.

    Interviewer: When did you call ?
    'yesterday'
    Interviewer: 'when'
    'yesterday'
    Interviewer:'did you say yesterday once more ? you're in'

          He's not even close to you
          While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
