Job Interview Tip

If you unfortunately have a cold at the time of interview, do not cough into both hands before or after you are introduced to those interviewing you. Doing so before will indeed pass germs. Doing so after being introduced will send those you've the just shaken hands with running into the bathroom for a surgical scrub-down. Actually, my four year old explained to me last night, you should cough into the inside of your elbow to keep from passing germs. Gotta love those wonderful preschool teachers!

GAH!

Did you just say, "thanks, but, uh, no thanks" to the handshake?

No...I was the one who wanted to run out of the room and wash my hands.

That's what we do here in the factory. Sneeze into your elbow.
