Using the name, 'Andy’s Pain in the Anis', referencing a teabag, this week’s tricky question took a different form: What do you do if a customer asks for a discount? 💲

“They always tell you they can’t at first but you have to keep asking them; it really depends on how long they have been hanging out for a sale.” DK.

So better start asking for that discount! 😁

“I would tell people I had one, I didn’t have one. But how’s it going to look if I’m selling waterbeds and I don’t have one.”

Fair to say DK wasn’t a fan of waterbeds or the job.

Things get curly with Andy’s Curly Question. ‘If you could be an animal what would it be?’ Somehow a real interview question! 🧐

“Easy, I’d just choose my favourite animal, a tiger. They’re very stylish.” DK’s response.

Probably not an answer that would help DK land a job but who knows? He’s definitely had success in a hell of a lot of interviews!
