"I'm sorry, but I can't hire you. I typed your name in on a search engine, and lazy, selfish, and unmotivated were the categories that came up."

"Oh, I'm sorry, did I miss your exhibit?"

"I don't think the guy with the business-card cannon has ever been to an actual networking event,"

Over enthusiastic headhunter

"Nowadays, it's all about who you know, not what you know."

'Of course my income didn't really take off until I left tele-marketing and got into insurance fraud.'

"Agreed then-I won't network you if you don't network me."

"A handshake and a high five - I can't see this merger working."
