This is a question Job Interview Disasters

The boss showed me the shop floor, complete with loose floor tiles, out-of-date equipment and prospective colleagues eyeing me like a raw steak. "Christ, what a craphole", I said. I think that's the moment I blew it. Tell us how you didn't get the job.

Suggested by Field Marshall Dozington-Smythe (Ret.)

My Dad wanted me to work with him.
One day he took me to his office, and his boss was there, he wanted me to work there too.

I got in a bit of a fight with my Dad about it, and I ended up knocking him out.

His boss tried to persuade me to work there anyway, but I told him to fuck off. He got really pissed off and started to fight with me.

Then my Dad stabbed him with a lightsabre. This last sentence is so that that last word doesn't stand out so much.

That sounds like the plot line to a Barbara Taylor Bradford novel.
or a sci-fi story.

Obi Wan never told you what became of your father.
He told me you killed him!
No, Luke, I filled his dismissal paperwork...

Still better that Phantom Menace.

I like all of them.
My wife and kids are going abroad for 2 weeks at the beginning of December.

Being a sad old man, my preparations include no strippers or wild partying, but I am planning to watch all 6 films of the Blu Ray box set I have been saving since my birthday, back to back on one of the two weekends they're away.

Despite them being utter shit, I always seem to end up watching Episodes 1 to 3 when ITV have them on.
Lord knows why - even the kids can tell they're crap.
