Categorising Your Personality ... By Chip Flavour
Sunday, May 07, 2006
Job interviewers are known to ask stupid questions. One example, which I have been asked in an interview, is "What colour best describes your mood today?" These human resource types, often outsourced from the actual company, will claim to ask these sorts of questions to guage your personality. The real fact is that they'd like to know how much shit you're able to put up with, and how kind you'll be during the ordeal. I haven't started my rounds this year yet, but the subject came up in conversation yesterday night and it led to a possibly intruiging idea.
I'm not sure how it started, but we discussed the concept of finding a potato crisp flavour that is best able to describe your personality (or perhaps to draw a parallel between where you "fit in" in relation to your chip flavour's established position in society). There are the staples of chip flavours, your original/plains, chickens and salt & vinegars. Then you've got your trendier fad flavours courtesy of Red Rock Deli and the like.
No real conclusions were drawn, but the theory is out there. I'm not even sure why I posted this, but the urge did arrive precisely after I read about Uncyclopedia users classifying themselves by their "inner sock puppets".

Hehe at one job interview I went to, the first question was this: What's your star sign?
I'm serious.
