Barack Obama "wants to kick BP's ass"! "Barack Obama would sack Tony Hayward if he worked for him?" Presidents of America should not talk like little kids and by the way, should Obama work for BP I think Tony Hayward would be sacking him not the other way around!
The debacle that BP now finds itself in is no shock to myself. I went for an interview with them once-upon-a-time, in fact I had a telephone interview and then traveled far and wide to meet them face-to-face and at great expense to myself.
The guy (who shall remain nameless) simply fired off questions at me without recourse to my answers and the lady (who shall also remain nameless) was too busy texting on her mobile phone. I couldn't see the phone but her head was bowed down and her arm constantly vibrated (never mind the beeps that emitted every so often) which meant that she was either 'texting' or extremely nervous.
Anyway, at the end of the interview I departed with high hopes despite the opposition. I didn't get the job. They eventually informed me (not by text thankfully) that they felt that whilst I was perfect for the role, I would perhaps not fit in to a large company environment. Okay, erm, yah, .........
Needless to say I was upset, but then they compounded this by mucking me around over the next six months. That was the length of time that it took me to get the expenses for the interview out of them (seriously reduced to boot) as they simply seemed incapable of writing a cheque (or buying a stamp for the envelope). I wrote 27 emails, wrote six letters and made 14 phone calls before I eventually received the funds.
I feel sorry for BP, no company deserves its demise at the hands of an ass-kicking president of the USA but then perhaps it has simply grown too big for itself? Maybe we should rename it American Petroleum and get shot of it all.
