Tues 9th August 2022, Election Day
The London subway isn't the most elegant of places.It reeks of malodor. It's dripping with secondary moisture. And then there's the difficulty of shoving far too many people into a confined space and hoping that, in some very British way, they'll all get on.One man got on the subway train last Monday morning and wasn't in the mood for politeness or pleasantries. As another man stood in his way, he shoved him and, so that there was no doubt as to his intent, told him to "Go f*** yourself."This is morning talk for "Oh, do please get out of the way."Perhaps the curser thought nothing more of it. He went about his day. He even had a job interview later in the afternoon.He walked in and, within seconds, began to curse himself. For his interviewer turned out to be the very man he'd cursed at on the subway.
So did the applicant get the job? In a word, no. "As it worked out, he wasn't right for the role," says Buckland. "The job is still open." But he's quick to stress that the applicant's lack of success wasn't because of the rude encounter.
