I'm pissed off.

I got a job interview with a promotions company, delighted. Then my bro told me to Google Cobra Group, so I did. They're some sorta scam, I'm so pissed off.

Anyways, my interview is at 2.15

So obviously I won't show up, so I'm guessing they're gonna ring me.

What should I say? I wanna piss them off.

I'm thinking when they ring I'll answer and say 'sorry I'm having a bit of a **** could ya ring back in five minutes', hang up and do this for as many times as they ring back!

But I'm sure After Hours can help me do one better!

So ideas? What should I say?! :cool:

You should turn up.

Only wear one shoe. Have your fly undone and be quite obviously drunk.

Start singing rebel songs at inappopriate times during the interview.

When exactly would be an appropriate time to sing a rebel song during an interview?

Aodan83 · 28-05-2009 12:20PM

A scam you say. Turn up dressed as a garda.

kittensoft1984 · 28-05-2009 12:20PM

I say turn up ffs!!

connundrum · 28-05-2009 12:28PM

Go to the interview with an actual Python in a box.

Bask in the glory of the attempt at being ironic.

the_dark_side · 28-05-2009 12:32PM

If you are sure its a scam, ring up and rearrange for another interview if you cant make todays one. Then, on the day of the interview fit yourself with hidden camera and mic which you can get here Then do an undercover report with one of the papers. It will be the start of an investigative journalist career for you. You could possibly sell your story too

Blazer · 28-05-2009 12:35PM

Damnit .stupid group..

Turd Ferguson · 28-05-2009 12:35PM

Hate to break it to you but its not a scam. I used to work for them and I made quite alot of money doing so (about 500-600 euro a week).

Its a direct sales company. I dunno what stuff they're doing now but I was going door to door selling eircom phone watch (yes, its one of those). It's alot of hard work and long hours but as I said you can make sh*tloads of cash doing it. AFAIK they do stuff with sky tv and some insurence company too.
Door to door gets alot of bad press but I can honestly say it was one of the most fun jobs I've ever done.

Well there were a few "situations" like that

But usually we would go out to an area in a group of about 6 or 8 and then work in pairs going around so there were alot of games and just general f*cking about
