High School Teaching Candidate Unhappy With Interview
WORCHESTERSHIRE, MA (Disassociated Press) – April 22, 2004 – Nearby Morbrysburgville’s Scott McAllister, age 35, who made national headlines last year when he failed to open his date’s car door (see Woman Calls AAA When Date Fails to Open Her Car Door, The Disassociated Press, November 27, 2003) is in the news again today, expressing dissatisfaction over a recent interview to be a High School teacher with the Worcestershire Public School District.
“The interview was going pretty well,” explained McAllister, “until the interviewer asked me a question that took me by surprise, and I don’t think he was happy with my answer.”
McAllister went on to say that “all of a sudden, the guy said to me ‘Scott, tell me something that you don’t like about teenagers – and don’t tell me that there isn’t anything, because there are plenty of things about teenagers for everyone not to like. Even the teachers that like their students the most have things they don’t like about teenagers.’”
“So, I said to the guy, ‘now that you mention it, there is one thing that particularly gets on my nerves,’” McAllister continued. “’Of course. So what is it?’ The guy asked me. ‘Well,’ I said, ‘I really hate that crunching noise they make every time you run one of them over.’”
