No Heart

i had to journey to the office again today, a long trek that i generally don't look forward to. it gives me a lot of time to think, which is not always a good thing. rather than meaningless meetings and other time wasting activities, i've been asked to interview some candidates for an open engineering position.

i threw them my normal array of questions and watched as they floundered about trying to solve these seemingly little brain teasers all along wondering what the fuck was so difficult about grouping/sorting domain names. after all the interviews were complete, there was the following conversation while reviewing the applicants:

Man! You have no heart.
sure i do, i said reaching into my pocket. it's right here.
that's a rock.
actually, it's glass. a heart of glass.
[snicker] it's small and hard.
lets keep your dick out of this...
you sure that isn't a rock?
