What is your greatest weakness?

Another good one:
Pull out a card that has written on it: "sometimes my insane overpreparedness gets taken for arrogance"
Also:
"redheads" -

When asked this in job interviews, I used to always say "I'm really bad at answering interview questions." This didn't prevent me from getting a job at a national ISP.
My favourite fictional interview question to find out someone's religion, from King of the Hill:
If you could eat at Luly's with one of the following, would it be: a. Jesus, b. Mohammed, c. Golda Meir?

I am often described as being too straight-talking with most things in life. I've lost potential girlfriends because I just say things like they are, and most people are looking for you to lie to them early in a relationship...jobs are the same way, except they want you to lie to keep up appearances usually indefinitely...

AJ's girlfriend: "Does my bottom look big in this dress?"
AJ: "Yeah, it looks huge"The ability to lie is a good skill to have as an IT professional (and as a boyfriend), though you have to know when and when not to use it.

AJ: "Yeah, it looks huge"Depending on one's cultural background, it may be a complement. If my wife asks if her butt is big, I know to say "yeah baby I love it." And yes, I do. I'm guessing though, AJ gets in hot water instead.

Also, my inability to take nearly anything seriously. Life is far too short to be taken seriously. -

Also, my inability to take nearly anything seriously. Life is far too short to be taken seriously.I would not count that really. More people need that one. I wished I had it.. especially here of late.
Redheads,.. I know a few,.. and I'm happy to remain at a distance most days.
I think I would have to say my greatest weakness is scrambled knowledge... i know enough of so many things it makes that knowledge nearly useless.. I'm also the hardest on myself...

You gotta love just going through the motions of an interview. Some questions back and forth are really helpful for the both parties, but some questions you just have to give the answer the employer is looking for.
-
I've always felt that's a totally lame and cliche interview question. I make it a point to make an interview more like a conversation. It's much easier to get a feel for personality when the interviewee is at ease. If you must ask questions, ask something like "if you had a super power what would it be" or something else unexpected. It's all I can do not to roll my eyes at people asking that lame-o question, even if those people happen to be interviewing me!

I'm not one for stock interview questions. They only show how well people prep, it doesn't say anything about them. Says a lot about the laziness of the interviewer, though.

Right on. Hence the barely controlled eye-rolling.

I'm in the same boat as the girl in the interview. However, I don't think my honesty is my weakness. My honesty only weed out those who can't handle the truth. In turn, points out those who are ok with living their life as a lie. I have my few friends I do have trained not to come to me with there problems if they don't really want to know the truth.
My girlfriend to this day, after x amount of years still have a problem with me being honest.
I may get myself in trouble saying this, but MOST woman likes their truth sugar coated. I don't have time to add sugar. If we are in danger, I don't have time to say...dear please duck. I'm going to say PUT YOUR DAYUM HEAD DOWN!! lol! As for the booty comment. Someone was right about that it's a cultural thing. Society are just now catching up with the African American community. We've always thought a big butt looks nice. As long as it don't continue to shake after you have stopped walking for 5mins. It can even have a couple of dimples. Butt, excuse the pun, if it has more dimples then the moon...it's an issue.
Now, if you must know, the rule of thumb for any female booty is:
No matter big or small, if it looks like an upside down heart you have a winner! If she's baggy in thongs, she may still be under age or God is punishing her. lol!
If a guy has that heart look...well lets just say he best not go to prison.I'm Mr. Wright, that's my view on Butt-ology and I'm out!

@MrWright4hire lmao, thanks for the explanation
