(BILL is sitting in the waiting room, fidgeting with his tie. MR. SMITH enters with a clipboard.)
MR. SMITH:
(sternly)
Good morning, Bill. Ready for your interview?
BILL:
(nervously)
Uh, yes, sir! I’ve prepared a lot for this!
MR. SMITH:
(raising an eyebrow)
Great! Let’s start with an easy question. Why do you want this job?
BILL:
(confidently)
Well, I want to help your company succeed! I believe in hard work and dedication!
MR. SMITH:
(nods)
Good to hear. Now, what’s your biggest weakness?
BILL:
(eyes widening)
I tend to be overly honest.
MR. SMITH:
(leaning in)
That’s not really a weakness.
BILL:
(smirking)
I don’t care what you think!
(MR. SMITH pauses, surprised, then bursts out laughing.)
MR. SMITH:
(laughing)
Okay, you’re hired! We need more honesty around here!
