Next Stop: The Home Depot Parking Lot

I just want to do anything I can to help the President do his job, because it looks sooo hard. I have helped many rich and powerful men relax by letting them grab my attention.

EMPLOYMENT APPLICATION FORM                           U.S. GOV. # 456Y-B

NAME: Mr. Randolph McDonough
ADDRESS: Eastern Nazarene Home For The Grizzled
D.O.B.: 10/6/1921
GENDER: I’m not a queer if that’s what you’re saying!
POSITION DESIRED: I hate Mexicans.
PRIOR WORK EXPERIENCE IN THIS FIELD:

I have always hated them, not just lately. I didn’t even like Ricardo Montalban or that other one. Also I always hated France except for that tootsie who used to dance in tight pants with whats-his-name. And I hate Arabs and Chinese and Japanese and those other kind of Arabs who hate the Arabs who aren’t like them only I hate them too. I also hate black people and women. Except for the ones who play for ‘Bama and that French tootise.

EDUCATION:

High School: Yes yes yes!

College: I hate colleges. The football games are okay. Except does everybody have to be black?

Trade or Professional School: I took Shop like every normal boy did in school back when everything wasn’t as stupid as it is now. I made a bread board for my mother, and I could make another one right now if they’d let me out of the goddamn singalongs to go get my table saw back at the house. My mother tried to use my bread board, but my old man broke it over his knee and used it to paddle me with, back when everybody hit everybody with wood. I forgot to say I hate him too, but he’s dead so that’s probably not a top priority in the government anymore.

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN CONVICTED OF A CRIME?

Who the hell are you to ask me that? The government has no business asking a law-abiding citizen whether or not he has ever made a bread board! And what does a bread board have to do with whatever it was I was talking about anyway? Jesus!

WHY DO YOU WANT TO WORK IN THE WHITE HOUSE?

I was watching Fox News in the TV room and I heard somebody on there – not the one I hate but the other one – say something about something. Then John McCain started talking and he looked right at me and stepped out of the TV and told me he liked fish sticks too and we started dancing around the room only not like homos but just so the guards with the X-ray goggles wouldn’t get suspicious. So that’s when I knew I had to do something.

COMMENTS (for HR use only):

FBI Director?

COMMENTS (for HR use only):

I like his name. Good solid American sound. His English is weak, but better than most of the other applicants from Kansas. Seems a waste to put him in the kitchen, how about one of the openings in State?
