This is a question Not Getting the Job

Muns asks - Did you blag your way through a job interview, only to be caught out? Is your photography portfolio full of other peoples work? Did your potential employers google your name, before offering you a lucrative contract and discover something from your past you would rather forget? How did you fail to get the job?

Big tits stole my job
I was working as a field service engineer, fixing PCs. One company I went to regularly was an engineering firm, and I got friendly with the IT manager there. He let it slip they were looking for a network administrator. I said I'd quite fancy that.

He invited me in for an interview. It was a cosy chat. They hadn't advertised externally - it was me and two internal candidates. One had been ruled out, neither had any IT experience. I had seven years' experience, had passed six exams, I was qualified, eager and ready to do it.
He said if it were up to him, he'd give the job to me there and then. But he'd have to run it past a director. It was a formality, the job was virtually mine.

It would mean a massive pay rise and occasional travel to mainland Europe.

They gave the job to a girl who had no experience or qualifications, but she was a stunning beauty. For the next six months, I regularly had to go back to that place and fix PCs for this sex goddess whilst seething with rage.
