After graduating from HS I applied for a job with Canon Copiers. They had an opening for someone to fill the shipping/recieving dept. I get called in for an interview and things went quite well. The woman in charge of hiring said I got the job and would start Monday morning.

I'm leaving the building when she runs out telling me the CEO just arrived and wanted to talk to me. We start talking and he throws a bunch of mathematical questions at me and asks me to do them in my head. I couldn't and said I could answer them if I had a calculator. He wasn't impressed and told the woman to find someone else. She pulls me aside when i'm leaving and apologises saying it was my bad luck that the CEO was in.
