How about if a smart young bird in a bar said do you wanna mate mate?

I thought about this post in the week …. A young lad has applied for a job at my company . In a very short message agreeing to come in for an interview he called me mate twice …. He will have to be something special to get the start , or even leave the office alive 😂😂

Offer him a drink at the interview, if he says ‘Can I GET a coffee’, stick the heed on him and fling down the stairs. :hehe:
