    I'm not sure if you've seen this, but it made me laugh and wanted to share it with you.

    Haha. Would be even funnier if it weren't so true.

    I interviewed someone not a while back and they were doing pretty well until...

    They had Unix listed on their resume (CV) as a skill. While making small talk (no need to know Unix for the position they were interviewing for) I asked them what flavor of Unix they had worked with. I have a little Unix and Linux experience and was just curious. They did not have a clue what Unix was. They did not know it was an operating system. Could not name a flavor or say what it did. They could only say that, "they had used the software".

    Reminds me of something I see too much here.

    Question: Which version of SSIS are you using?

    Answer: VS 2008

    Or better yet, from a real conversation at work a few years ago.

    Question: In what format do you want me to sent the data?

    Answer: Notepad.

    Scary sometimes! :w00t:
