I went to a job fair and one of the myriad recruiters there liked me and handed me a flier for a corporate sales job. Most of the real jobs and all of the fake jobs at the job fair were corporate sales jobs. I went home with a few leads for just that sort of job and I need a job so I might as well look into it. Just as I was writing an email to this company thanking them for the 30 second interview, they called me about their orientation meeting and interview the next day. The woman asked me if I had the address and I said hold on a minute, I've got the flier. I read the address there to her and she said ok, do you need directions? Well, no, I can find it.
Google Maps® gave me a pinpoint on the map where the address was and sure enough, I'm there three minutes after the appointed time -- only, the address wasn't there. Indeed, after asking two doormen (always get a second opinion), I was sure the address did not exist. I called the contact number on the flier and instead of giving me the correct address, I was given another intersection to go to, not too far, and some landmarks to look for... only I heard the intersection wrong. I had to call again. Do I really want to work for and with these communication dunderheads?
