'I guess there are lots of rotten jobs, Gramma...I hope I don't have to clean the taco hut forever.'

What else is there to wish for?

Metaphors.

'I don't like to waste time. How long on average does it take a recruit to make general?'

"Where do you see yourself in five minutes?"

"But my real dream is gettin' paid lotsa money for doin' nothin'."

Job Interview, "This company wants a person who is both ruthless and intelligent but who is also too dumb to want to try for my job."
