      Probably because they are far more mature than you will ever be.

        Omaha phone interview went bad. It was fine until I was asked if I had any questions. So I asked how the culture at the company was, since the website had nothing on this. His response was "what kind of culture do you need?" I was a little miffed, because I hate people answering questions with questions but I told him. When I was done he was all, well, that's puzzling. He asked me again if I had any questions. So, again, I asked him about the culture, and he told me the same thing I told him! When I asked him what the difference was he didn't have a response that made any real sense.

        Even if they want me to come in I am not sure I will, the hiring manager sounds like he doesn't understand what I tell him, and that could make for a strange situation.

              Good luck, Japher. Sounds like a tough grind.

                  Looks like I will be flying out to Fresno in the near future. Not this week though, it's flooding there.

                  My mom already has us offered and accepting a job, and is looking for something for wifey to do. I hope she doesn't get let down.

                    They live in Omaha so they have to already know they're uncultured.

                    Yep, it's pouring right now (started yesterday evening) and it's supposed to keep on pouring for the rest of the week. They're saying we could get up to 8 inches this week here in San Diego when we normally only get 10-11 inches per year.

                      Now I wonder if he is thinking that makes me hard to work with
                      Just be honest. Even if you don't get hired, it's probably for the best. I had an interview with a tutoring business who lied about both compensation and their contract. I made a point of reading over their contract which stated there was to be revenue sharing, (ie, all the tutors got a percentage of the total) rather than straight hourly compensation, and the contract essentially forbade me from working on my own while I was with them.

                      I was not surprised when they chose to hire someone else for the same spot.

                          Chicago area phone interview went well and I received feed back from a Philly area job. They said they liked my resume and were circulating it for consideration on other jobs as well as the one I applied to, so that's good.

                              Off to Fresno tomorrow for the interview on Monday. They allowed me to stay the weekend to hang with friends and family. Wish me luck

                                Good luck Japh! I'm a bit late in reading this news, as I don't post on forums much any more, but I wish you all the best.
