Now here's an idea I can get into: Job Candidates Charge for the Interview. So many times, I've gone to interviews thinking that maybe I wanted the job, maybe I didn't, then knew within 30 seconds that I didn't. I'm way too polite to say 'gee, you guys seem to have your heads up your asses. You may have 10 million users but you have no revenue and none in sight so, while you're all very nice, I've been at enough companies that have gone out of business this year alone and don't care to take on another.

So I sit there and talk to everyone who comes in, all the while growing more and more bored/frustrated because I'm tired of answering the same questions over and over with each new person. I'd rather play a videotape of myself and save us all some time.

The idea of billing for my time is ideal. It would keep the windbags under wraps and would make it easier for me to say 'you know, this just wouldn't work for me. Ever.' Thanks to my homie brig for this one.
