Oh lord, so true!
While I was living in NC with my now-ex, one of the job applications I filled out actually said "I enjoy fishing: Agree, Not Sure, Disagree" and asked if I liked drinking on the weekends.
This was for an AutoZone, mind you.

The hell??
I think the application was making a pass at you...
"Do you like fishing?"
"Do you like drinking on the weekends?"
"...wanna go out sometime?"

I saw this a long time ago and thought 'Hah! That's pretty funny!'
Now that I've come across it again after having filled out a Target application it is much more true to me. Plus it made me laugh more....and at the same time get a little frustrated

This by far my favorite comic of yours so far! It's really, really, really hard to laugh quietly.
(Everyone's sleeping and my computer is in the middle of the house.)

Did they really ask you that?! wow...i'll be like "What the hell! Help! Target wants me to either kill puppies or beat up babies!" lol

"You smoke more than you drink: True, False?"
Yeah...that was a question on a "Test-Well" Survey. So, I know how you feel. Funny stuff!

Dear lord how I hate those things.
Psychology questionnaires are disturbingly similar.
Are you a generally happy person who has thoughts of suicide more than 3 times a day because you were beaten by your father because you have a hard time distinguishing between shades of color while hearing voices in your mind of your childhood friend's dead puppy?
Yes ________ Not Sure ______ Yes again.
Made me laugh, so I had to

Thank you for making me laugh, I really needed it.

You've gone through those obnoxiously long and ridiculous questionaires from Target too! xD They made me laugh to no end. There really isn't a right answer...although they base hiring you off of it...? O_o What's up with that?
Seriously though, this made me laugh, literally, out loud. xD

T_T 15 ungodly applications for a second job this season, all with the same terrible questionare. I feel your pain.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
funny and painful at the same time. 
ugh, job application personality tests are overly simplistic, but companies see it as a cheap way to filter out all the applicants.

I know what you mean. Have you ever noticed that they'll ask some Questions more then once it bites. Nice work by the way ^_^
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Oh the questionnaire. Love the faces (mainly because I've made them).
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I think the trials of "no right answer" questions pale in comparison with the sheer irritation of poorly worded and insanely abstract questions.
"If you had a different mother and the same father, would you still be the same person today?"
"Is it your perception that influences the choices you make, or do you become nervous around people other than your friends when being a team player under pressure?"
etc.

The Tennessee Job Market is STILL Dead, and its Now starting to smell! Even thought we have a new Volkswagen Plant coming here, It WON'T Benefit Middle Tennessee because its going to be in EAST Tennessee!

/joke off
Ouch, and whats messed up is that you can find stuff similar to this sometime. fantastic to use that as a comic concept :3

oh god and the people who actually pass the questioner are like my dad and are mental unstable.

That's EXACTLY the perfect expression for answering that question
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I totally hear you. They have seriously messed up questions. And way too many of them.

You should see Wal Mart's questions. Those guys are nazis...

Dude! I hate that! It's like they WANT to trap you and peg you as a psycho.

I was all for punching babies before Charlie was born. Now I'm a puppy man.

Oh HELL yes. That's exactly my experience at applying for minimum-wage nonsense - they make so much of it.

LMAO! I had to take one of these for Walmart. And I swear not only do they ask crazy stupid questions, they'll repeat them, just phrase them a different way! Gah!
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
YES! YES! all of those stupid questions are as ambiguous as possible and ultimately mean nothing. All the answers are wrong!
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Target?! XD that is so funny. I really can't wait until I'm part of the work force.

The worst part is that they don't actually read the hundreds of those applications they get each day. I think they only have them around to cover their own ass if some employee flips out.
Always ask to speak to the manager and try to set up an interview, or at least get the manager's business phone number to do it.

Besides...I like puppies more

OH. My favorite of those damnable questions is:
"It's infuriating when they let guilty criminals go free."
What the HELL do I know if they're guilty or not!?

I agree with the last question...only if they are Nazi puppies

Guh. I haaaate those goddamned things. D:
I mean, for real... they're like Blogthings on steroids. Blugh.

And I've done so many and they still won't hire me. D<

This is so true. The worst ones don't even give you a "not sure" option, so you accidentally admit to kitten raping, even though you just don't enjoy eating human flesh.
I don't think Best Buy is gonna call me back.

I *laughed* at the Shoplifting answer, because I was like "...Yeah, right, if I answer honestly I am SO not getting a job." They don't want honest employees; they want decent liars.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They want people who are willing to compromise all logic and common sense in order to say what ever the company wants them to. It's a pliancy test, more than anything. They like to see how well you fit their mold.

That's a good way to put it ^^

Ewww - Target Dx
I applied using that stupid questionnaire twice and.. just.. no

Ugh, I've seen these same kinds of bullhonkey questions whenever I've applied for Tesco or Currys or whatever.
"What is your biggest flaw?" Um, I'm not gonna tell...

Answer: "I have an unusually large part of my anatomy..."
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I hate the ones that have the same basic question more than once, then you never sure what to write.
Well, I never know what to write. I hardly pay attention though so that ...
Hey look, shiny!

I've never actually had to do that, thankfully.
Also, that pouty frightened face is SO FRIGGING ADORABLE!
