INTERVIEW FIRST

...so I'm interviewing a nursing candidate for my outgoing dept yesterday. Doing the background info on employment history and basic questions on skills and such. So my question pertains to skill level w/various computer programs - Access, Excel, etc. The woman admittedly said she was fair at most of them 'unlike her son who went from canal to computer.'

Clearly there was a puzzled look on my face as she went on to explain w/out me asking for any clarification. She could have said 'from womb to computer' or from 'birth to computer' but nooooooooooooo. She looks at me and says, 'you know, from the vaginal canal..'

WHOMP. You *could* have picked me up off the floor. WHO says this during an interview? WHO???????
