Job Seeker: "I'm looking for a job as a consultant."

HR Manager: "I'm sorry, we already have enough cosultants."

Seeker: "That's ok, with my experience, I can be an advisor."

HR Manager: "Umm... More than we can use already."

Seeker, getting desperate: "I'm not proud, I can do paperwork, I'll be a clerk, If you have too many, I'll start as a janitor."

HR Manager: "It just doesn't seem that we have any openings for a person with your qualifications."

Seeker, rising and angrily yelling, "To work for you I'd have to be a low life, belly crawling, double dealing jerk!"

HR Manager: "Well, you didn't say you were an attorney, have a seat, we may have an opening."
