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The boss showed me the shop floor, complete with loose floor tiles, out-of-date equipment and prospective colleagues eyeing me like a raw steak.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.

There was one background check I recall
Naturally, the CIA asked me about drug use. Counting on fingers and toes, I estimated that I had smoked pot 24 times, ever. This worried them. Once, I received a telephone call at 6 a.m. The anonymous gruff caller demanded: "How many times have you ever smoked pot?" "Twenty-four!" I cheerily replied, and the fellow abruptly hung up.
