UAL CEO said he uses this hiring tactic to vibe check job candidates

I mean perhaps the same could be said about English? Especially the countries that speak English in funny accents
Maybe, but there’s that double layer when you don’t speak the language at all versus “they phrase things weird over here.” I had no idea I needed to quickly learn another word for “jacket.”
 
I don’t know, I interviewed at there and found the interviewer unlikable as hell. Nobody even smiled let alone made you feel welcome.
Not saying it’s wrong or right but I think they lack emotion both for better or worse, intentionally during the interview.

I as well as my circle of friends who interviewed there all more or less experienced the same. All of us left nervous because of it and unpacked every single question in our heads and why we wouldn’t get the job.

Turns out we all were just thinking too hard about it.
 
United is by far what seems like the best job to me tbh. Like a more professional and elegant version of the Southwest of yesteryear. That company changed a ton in the last decade, all for the better IMO. Gotta keep that going somehow.

But the olives remain. •, olive chips, snack olives, olive tray, olive dip, olive sauce, olive tapenade, olives with your olives and cocktail mix, on olive bread.

That was the collective experience we all had as well. Except one guy who seemed to think he had it made.

Maybe he did!

If I was an interviewer and you walked in I'd excuse myself. I don't want to be sued. I'm not saying you wouldn't get the job, I'm just saying I've seen the rodeo and I'm not going to be a clown. You think the world is tilted against you but you never consider the opposite, perhaps you're tilted against the world. You're not heavy enough to reset the world on your preferred axis. And that's why you hate your job. You're an alpha in a beta disguise.

Yet again, you shouldn’t JC while you’re drunk and sad.

I’d really suggest some therapy.

I'm neither drunk or sad. Your opinion is worth what I paid. You have an important job and you do it well, that does not make you an expert on everything. You're just another pilot, no better, no worse, just another number in the machine. Get over yourself, it's not healthy to think you're an expert on everything. You're not, and neither am I.

Precisely why you’ve never been an interviewer.

I know you need a lot of attention today but I'm going to uninvite you to this thread. Go play in The Lavatory for a while until you feel better.

Maybe adopt a pet if you're feeling sullen so often.
 
Bigoted, sundowning, and off his meds....

Jetcareers Magazine: "So Paul, about your role as Miles from "Sideways" -- who did you use to base your character off of while filming?"

Paul Giamatti: "I was on this internet website and thought about when this user Knot4U goes off his meds. The self-hatred, the rage, the anger, the weird pith that materializes out of thin air like a surprise. Yeah, that guy. He both, almost symmetrically begs for help and, at the same time, repulses those around him. Like, you want that candy, but then you know that van's super suspicious"
