How can you be in sales and have an E in maths? :p

I'm not a sales person, I don't need maths! And even if I did, Excel spreadsheets = teh win. And I got the job purely on my skillz and experience, obviously!

No I didn't have the blimp then, unfortunately. But I did get it delivered to work and plugged it in to show the salesmen! Ohh, and I think having roleplay amongst my interests on my CV helped a bit aswell, they like peoples who are a bit, err, "out of the ordinary".

Yeh, hahhaha. And I got another job because of this game too. YOu know when you get really dodgy questions in interviews and the ask things like "describe a time in your life when you used your initiative and communication, and organisational skills".

So I got this weird question, I can't remember it exactly, but I ended up talking about how I'd organised a Dartmoor raid for our alliance and we went to visit the Dragon etc! They loved it!
