A reason I'm kind of crazy (which, is somewhat timely, as I'm again in the middle of a fruitless job search):

The Monday after I graduated college I came home to a voice mail from a fairly local company saying they had a job opening, and a mutual friend recommended that they contact me about it. This was a pleasant surprise, so I called back the next morning (I got the message well after the business day was over), and the phone call went like this:

"Hello, this is The Company! How may I help you?"

"Hi, my name is Man of Infirmity, I'm calling back about your message."

"Oh, great! Yes, Megan referred us to you. She said you were looking for something in a creative, promotional kind of position?"

"Wow, yes, actually, that sounds perfect!"

"Well this job actually has nothing to do with that, so you're probably not interested."

"Oh, well, I mean, I'd still be interested in hearing more about it..."

"No, that's quite alright. Thanks for your call!"

This is a reason I'm kind of crazy.
