So Very quick one for you, when I was an intern the team went out for a meal to a place know for their chicken wings but because we were all in suits/wings are messy no one ordered them.
A table of like 16 people, everyone ordered things you could eat with a knife and fork. I knew after like an hour that this wasn’t the career I wanted so I didn’t particularly care what these people thought of me so when I who was last to order, was asked what I was having, I said I’ll actually go for the wings and one of their nice beers, can’t remember which beer. Everyone e else had either ordered wine or a soft drink.
Cue the guy next to me saying actually I’ll have the same, that sounds amazing!
Every single person at the table of 16 cancelled their order saying yeah same for me actually!
In my end of Internship interview, I was offered a full time job because “Senior management was very impressed that I was able to sway so many people into ordering the chicken wings”
I did not take the job.
