(31,954 posts)Your experience, although pretty embarrassing, made me laugh. Sorry! Did you get the job?
I had a job interview once where the owner of the company took me out to lunch. I was like 23 and he was in his 60s. He proceeded to cast aside the job interview in favor of telling me he had an "open marriage" and he would like to have an affair with me! I was quite naive at the time and was just horrified and wondered how in the world was I going to get myself out of this abominable situation. This was in the late '70s. Finally, I just came right out and said I am not that kind of girl, no way, it ain't gonna happen. At least he seemed to take it in stride and after that, nothing more was said. Needless to say I didn't get the job. Nor would I have accepted it if he had offered!
