Had an interview for the first time in a long time and 2 questions stood out…

Mid 40s, mid-management, and have never not been employed. I like my job and the people who have worked with me or for me will say that I'm a pretty okay dude. So anyway I lined up an interview with the company that I was interested in going to work for and two questions stood out to me. What would your competition say about you? I answered that the only two times I met the owner of the business that is my direct competition he offered me a job because he had heard of me and knew of my work. To which I turned down because I knew I would not want that headache. What is something in the past that a previous employer did that you liked or wholeheartedly agreed with? …… Crickets….. I really couldn't think of anything on the spot and I still haven't thought of anything,…

I really couldn't think of anything on the spot and I still haven't thought of anything, and that was a week ago.
