Someone at work had a job interview & one of the questions was, "What's your WOW factor?"

How the hell would you answer that??

The only thing that sprang to my mind as an answer was, "Give me a pint pot & I'll show ya!" I was thinking of a friend of mine who's 'party piece' is that she can fit the wide end of a pint pot glass into her mouth!!! :shock: It is an amazing feat to see!

A highly inapropriate answer like that would NOT get you the job we were talking about (a senior manager) but to see the look on the panel's faces!

So, tell me....what's your 'WOW' factor??

    I am very bendy... naturally so and have been doing pilates for years...

    I can touch the floor with the palms of my hands from standing with straight legs

    I can get my toes in my mouth.

    Not likely to get me a job either, but these are useful skills!

    My WOW factor goes without saying :shock:
    My doctor has advised not to go to the toilet on my own because I am not allowed to lift heavy objects.

    The local Health and Safety advisors have informed me to put a sign on it, thats states, 'Do not stare, it senses fear!'

    I must admit though the 'one eyed, purpled headed bedroom snake' has never got me a job but it has got me into a lot of trouble :shock:

    PS - I do have another talent - I crack the most inappropriate jokes when nervous, I made a few during the interview for the job I'm doing :D

    I lost all my wow factors with arthritis.

    I did impress people with my one handed cartwheels along brick walls in days gone by......
