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The boss showed me the shop floor, complete with loose floor tiles, out-of-date equipment and prospective colleagues eyeing me like a raw steak.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

How Many?
I've had 6 teaching jobs in my entire career, for which I have attended 54 interviews in total.

That is all.

Or you must be shit.
