At some point of time, we have all come across this witty interview cartoon of Canary Pete where the interviewer (presumably) was seen testing the candidate’s out of the box thinking ability.

Back in 2003 while reviewing submitted hardcopy resumes, there were a number of new submissions that came in with mini-CD disks. Unsure as to what they really were, and concerned of potential viruses our IT department scanned them and once given the approval it was my turn to check them out.
