You should show up for the interview and say:

“What? I thought this was ‘People for the Eating of Tasty Animals!’” and storm out in a huff. But be carefull not to knock over any weedy staff on your way out, they would probably break.

No effing what am I going any where near that place. Those people are freaks.

4

Yes, they were a customer of mine several years back…very weird indeed! You aren’t allowed in the building unless you are wearing animal friendly clothes…no leather(shoes, belt), silk, fur, etc.!

5

Wow. If Marc showed up in his fur coat, leather platform shoes, and hat w/ feather, that wouldn’t go over too well.

6

This would actually be a great idea to try and get the job. And then sue them for discrimination if they reject you based on eating meat!

7

Come on Marc, take one for the team and go work for them!

Just no naked posters, please.:eek:

I never turn down an interview. I’d go in a heartbeat.

10

I’m with Rob, besides, maybe you could infiltrate the organization and stage a coupe. :smiley:

11

Or a coup even. :wink:

The IT community in the area is actually pretty small. I know a couple of people that worked there and believe me, it wouldn’t even be worth my time to go there and screw with them.

They are full blown wackos. Remember, this is there “world” headquarters so these are the craziest of the craziest. They don’t even allow cars with leather seats in their parking lot.

13

Go. Find out what their CARRY policy is early in the interview.

14

I’d go. Dress low key and carry a brief case.

When you sit down in the interview, act serious about the job.

Then, open up your briefcase as if you’re pulling out some important supporting documents and pull out a big, grease dripping double cheeseburger with bacon hanging off of it and start eating it.

A group of peta freaks protest at the NM state capital building almost every week. During one of there protests, My brother and myself sat near them and enjoyed our lunch, which consisted of Carl Jr.s Hamburgers(the Giant ones). They were not happy with us, and one of them asked us to leave. We laughed at them and continued with our lunch.

16

they used to protest McDonalds in the town where I went to college. The locals would drive by and throw raw ground beef at them.

Good times.

17

When I get home from work I’ll tell you guys a very funny PETA story :wink:

18

Well, PETA isn’t too far from Bob’s, so that’s not too bad.

PETA interviews are one of the best times to put the kydex concealment gear and your Wilderness belt away in lieu of open carry with your fancy tooled elephant leather barbecue rig. Leave the Glock at home and sport the 1911A1 with the nice stag grip panels.

And of course the ostrich and python cowboy boots. You know, something subtle.

You really can’t have too much leather sometimes.

I’ve always wanted to eat a vegetarian. :smiley:
