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The boss showed me the shop floor, complete with loose floor tiles, out-of-date equipment and prospective colleagues eyeing me like a raw steak.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

I went into an competency style interview where you had to give examples of a time you have used teamwork/failed at a task, etc.
I made all the stories up and couldn't remember details when the interviewer referred back to a previous story. I can't remember the stories, but it really happened.
