Selection Humor

Two examples of testing humor to help you get ready for the weekend.

Michael Harris sends word via George's Employment Blawg about an article in STL Today dealing with a spot of testing and HR-related humor. Harris seems to think the humor falls a bit short and earns groaner status by virtue of silly jabs at our profession, and I kind of agree with him. Not side splitting stuff, but see for yourself.

The Daily Show

The second example, though is quite a bit funnier. The Daily Show with Jon Stewart recently did a piece where one of their reporters tried to get a new job and did everything completely wrong. You can watch it online here if you can tolerate their awful website and use Internet Explorer (yuck). My favorite part is where he goes to Staples to get copies of his resume made. Great stuff.
