1. Despite all I've ever said about Apple computers (and their shockingly woeful power supplies and customer support), I'm now lusting after the new Apple MacBook Air.2. However, it's pointless my lusting after the new Apple MacBook Air since I can't actually afford one.
3. I'll be away for most of Wednesday morning attending a job interview. I anticipate intelligence tests followed by questions such as 'where do you see yourself in five years time?'
4. I don't know where the hell I'll be in five years time and I'm liable to punch anybody who dares ask me that question.
5. Yet should I answer the question well and get the job, I will be able to afford a new Apple MacBook Air.
6. If I get the job, I won't have any time to use my new Apple MacBook Air.
7. But if I don't get the job, I'll have all the time I want to write on a new Apple MacBook Air. However, I still won't be able to afford a new Apple MacBook Air.
Questions:
Should I actually try to get the job?
Should I punch anybody who dares ask me the fateful question?
Is the Apple MacBook Air as sexy as it appears?

the airbook certainly is pretty, but I don't know if it's worth it. I bet that they'll improve it in the coming years...(it doesn't even have firewire)
Answers:
Only if you want it.
No.
Are you as sexy as you appear?
[Oh good, the captcha is back to normal with xkxnhdh. I was worried]
Oh Lord I could tell you about a job interview or 2... on one occasion a guy at the job agency literally wept over my CV saying if you only had an EU passport...
And after some of the tests and things I do feel like the only thing left to do is to shove a rectal probe up my arse and send me to the Moon... :)
When I think about it the best interviews I ever had and that had the best results was when I threw the caution to the wind and given completely non-diplomatic somewhat snarky answers...
I did a job interview as well this morning - I hope it was not the same one, as I would not want you to have been wasting your time... I have another on Friday, would you like the address?
By the way are Applemac sponsoring you now? if so... sweet!
You should, you shouldn't, and it isn't - in that order.
I hate those "five years time", "ten years time" questions. I mean, do they *really* want me to say what's on my mind? Where so I see myself in five years? Well, I see myself living alone in a small cottage by the side of a small forest lake in Lapland, hunting reindeer and picking mushrooms and brambleberries for my sustenance. No one around for miles, just me, my dog, my rifle, my mushrooming basket, my fishing tackle and my sauna. Sauna is key.
Oh, you thought I was going to say, "regional manager of tele-sales in Bumfuck, Illinois," huh? Whoops. Does this mean I don't get the job?
I don't know the answer to any questions lately. But the Apple Air looks cool.
Oh,who the hell even knows wher they'll be in 5 minutes time, let alone 5 years :).
where, even :).
