A man goes to a job interview.

He sits down and the employer immediately notices that he is absolutely filthy. He says, "You do know that this is a job interview?"

"Yes."

"You look like you've been down the mines!"

"I'm trying to create a good impression, sir."

"Anyway, tell me about yourself."

"Hang on, I might need help with this question, can I bring in my Asian interpreter?"

"Uh... Sure, go ahead."

So the Asian interpreter comes in and answers the question for him, and the next, and the next, and the next, all whilst the man is sat there doing nothing. The interview ends and they go home.

"Hey, you reckon I've got a good chance?" the man says to his interpreter.

"Yes. Very good chance, great impression!"

"Hey let's stop at Kings Bar and have a drink to celebrate!" So they get absolutely hammered and go home.

The next day, the man gets a phone call. It was the employer, "Hey, I regret to inform you that you have been unsuccessful."

"What? How?"

"Well when you came in you looked absolutely filthy, and I wasn't impressed at how your interpreter answered my questions and not you. I wish you the best of luck in the future."

"Dagnabbit! I knew I shouldn't have gone to the interview in a soot and Thai!!!!"
