Have you stopped beating your wife?

The questions on the survey/questionnaire for employment at Michaels were mildly amusing, in a twisted sort of way. There were a number of questions like "I have had problems with absences in the past but that is no longer a problem," with a scale of answers from "totally agree" to "totally disagree." Ummmm.... okay, whioh of those questions am I supposed to answer? How about, "I have had a problem with absences in the past and it's still a problem?" Or "It's no problem for ME, big guy. You'll just have to deal." One can only assume that they have a big psychology firm somewhere which can decode the answers.

I guess I'm overthinking this. Heh.

THe hysterical thing is I'm a very, very moral person, swear to god.

Well, one MIGHT take the approach that one needn't answer each question *exactly* the way one feels, but temper those answers with the result you know they want and how you know you, as an honorable person, are really going to act at work. Sort of. Not that I would advocate such a thing, of course.
