I hate interviews. Period.

I rejoiced the day I finished college, thought maybe I could sit back and relax a while. I guess I was wrong. No one told me that I needed to get a job after this crap.. but unfortunately I do! I've been applying to all the career websites and some recruiting firms, and I have had a few interviews.. I've now come to a conclusion.
I fucking hate interviews. They are the devil. Worse than taxi drivers ( yes there I said it ). I can understand the reason for interviewing, i.e to weed out all the psycho's who will gun down their colleagues(possible? :P), but some of them are just pointless and you get asked the most irrelevant questions.
Yes my name is that stated on the CV. No I do not know what is on the news today (-aside - I have driven through traffic half asleep, I am lucky to be here alive). No, I don't steal (-aside - but if I did I wouldn't tell you). Yes Kinshasa is in the DRC (-aside- WTF?! 0_o). I mean FFS you are nervous enough as it is, why do they try pummel you with bullshit questions.. Do they expect bullshit answers? I have a few lined up my sleeve, thank god my common sense takes control before I let a few slip.
My ideal interview? To arrive at a company, the boss hands me a cup of real, Jamaican coffee, I get shown my little box where I must sit and program for the rest of my life. That is perfect. Unfortunately this is just my imagination mocking me. Happy Valentines <3
I hate David Beckham.

For now, probably a junior java developer. Listed myself on all the career sites, my phone has been ringing off the hook, but like they all want people with minimum 3 years experience. that sucks :
