Silly questions from Sciex

Of course, there's the offensive and tacky demand for your current salary, but for now we'll put that one aside (hopefully, the state-level laws forbidding this question in Massachusetts and Minnesota will be elevated to the national level soon, at which point we'll revisit this one to see if they comply). Let's look at the next question with the lovely typo, "Why do you want to apply for his position?" I've said it before, and I'll say it again, this is a dumb question to ask a job applicant. To those hiring managers who disagree, let me pose this question: When your toilet backs up and the plumber you called arrives, do you stop him at the door and say, "Before you enter my house, I want you to tell me why you want to fix my toilet?"
