Unrealistic expectations
I applied for a job at Eclipse once - they wanted someone that lived in the Midlands, equidistance from their Wakefield headquarters and Exeter offices.
So I drove 2 hours to the interview in Wakefield. It was explained that initially I would need to be in the office everyday, but once trust was established this wouldn't be essential. However I would spend the majority of my time at either of the offices.
They offered me the job, on £30k a year, get real! I did tell them that I thought they were being unrealistic in their expectations.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
