So, a few years back, a business I was working for was sold to another company. One day, this 'consultant' comes in to speak to the staff individually. He was at great pains to reassure us that he was only there to try and improve the business, anything we said was totally confidential and any insights we had would be appreciated, etc etc.
The new company had changed a lot of things (and in my opinion definitely not for the better), so in my naivete I didn't mince my words and I told him exactly how I felt.
Fast forward 2 weeks and suddenly cutbacks were needed and they offered myself and another colleague voluntary redundancy. I took it cos I hated the new management and I knew I would never gel with their bullshit.
But yeah, looks like I was interviewing for my own job.
