Where do you think the economy is going?
I laughed and said i wish I knew, MD also laughed and said tell me about it. lol
bulge4lyf -- Did you get a job with that answer? That could either be terrible (you didn't really answer the question) or genius (made the MD laugh)
Yes I got the job. I think that day some really bad news about jobs had come out, whereas the previous day some really good news about consumer durables had come out. After I said that I basically explained that to him and how there really was no way to give a good answer at the time but that in the long run, things will pick up. He was an MD and was joking around with me the whole time so it seemed appropriate.
A little well placed humor goes a long way my man
Bulge thanks for sharing! and congrats on the job! Anyone else?
