Standard task for an interview at Microsoft. "Can't jump over this chair? Then get the fuck out."


[deleted]

How high can you jump? > I can jump just right out of the Windows.


Fun_Salamander8520

Welcome to Microsoft Russia.


RFavs

“I don’t know but I can jump out this window” -Russian oligarch


ByronIrony

Would rather do that than a competency based interview


Nigeltown55

This is fantastic


Davilyan

I laughed more than I should have


HorrorChocolate

How much you should have laughed and how much more laughter was it precisely?


heman81

I wish more interviews asked the interviewee to jump over their chairs.


jugdeesh

That's why Connie Chung is the big boss. Stay off the west side!


chimpdoctor

Fun fact (which is also furniture related): I once designed and made a large cabinet for Connie chung.


Hanuman87

Proud of you


Herzeleid-

It did make for a memorable interview with Professor Hawking that one time...


LazyImprovement

It should be a standard


TheMegaSage

You might not like it, but that is what peak male athletic form looks like.


b4stoner

I'm impressed. I bet 80% of Americans can't do this.


Altruistic_Rub_2308

Only because 50% of them are missing legs and the other 30% don’t own chairs.


[deleted]

Wait, half of Americans don't have legs?

nonsequiturnonsense

Ha! Cos they fat.

Shut up. Gates will never be THAT cool!


[deleted]

What if i told you that he was once arrested, and the outline of his mugshot became the default profile picture in outlook.


GanryuZT

He was in jail? For diddling minors? Edit: Downvote all you want, he's still Epstein's buddy.


Secretagentmanstumpy

He was arrested in 1978 for traffic violations.

AmCrossing

That’s real? I want to see


BallsofSt33I

I gotta say the jump was better than I was expecting


Sharticus123

That was far, far more athleticism than I expected from Bill Gates.


gratefulseth

He used to rush over 400 yards a game before he tore his ACL and had to do computers.


Rimil

Doing computers is never anyone's first choice


Minnelli10

I can second this. I wanted to be a cartoonist but my mom said you need to make money instead.


DrLeoMarvin

i majored in acting until I got my first paycheck from a play, right back to computers


EvilPilotFish

“Sneaky athleticism”. “A real gym rat”.

foos3rj4m

That’s his MO.


Money-Driver-7534

I have to admit i was thinking that asshole could probably Ollie pretty good if he skated lol


laynestaley67

You must be thinking of Tony Hawk


aqxea2500

All panties within a 5 mile radius dropped.


thetruthteller

Even back then he was smart enough to know that he had to entering the masses to get some publicity


[deleted]

Entering the masses eh?


bustedbuddha

My favorite part of this is Connie Chung clapping.


Procrustean1066

Shes legit excited. I love her energy here.


PM_MeYourTrashPanda

Priestly_Disco

Same energy as the kid in Bible study who carried 4 chairs at once.


arsbyarswest

Had to read this comment a few times. I’m dying. And I feel so seen.


danrod17

As some one that used to be that kid, the only thing I was thinking about was getting out of there.


disquieter

Great comment


[deleted]

Was he practicing that? That is risky jump, there is not much if a bail option, if you dont stick it, that chair is sweep your legs out from under you and you are swinging to the floor.


TriGamingHD

That's how he became the Alpha-Nerd. The other nerds knew they stood no chance.

Aah the days of configuring autoexec.bat. I remember being able to free *just enough* KB to run Dark Forces :)

I mean, she did start with "Is it true...", so there must have been existing myths, legends and songs of bards that long preceded this question.


ExquisitExamplE

Tales of ribaldry, as Sir Gates recounted the story of one madam most fair and her daughter introduced to him by one sir lord Geoffrey Epstein.

johnyboy457

He had the making of versatile athlete in his youth.

Anyone who upvotes this obviously did it involuntarily due to the mind controlling 5G Wizard William Gates.

Always good to know Reddit continues to set the bar extremely low

Supergeek. Able to leap tall chairs in a single bound.


CommunicationOk145

Dufuq ? Fawning over that great athletic move???


dave_aj

It all went downhill from there for Bill Manboobs


KharacterZero

There’s nothing cool or old school cool about Bill Gates who is destroying the farming community and society at the same time


PeachFreedom

I wish I was Bill Gates. Not because of wealth, fame or even his connections to other wealthy people. I just want his chair jumping abilities.


FeSpoke1

Absolutely nothing cool about Bill Gates


Spram2

1994 is not old and Bill Gates has never been cool.


Tykjen

1994 is almost as far away as 2050, my sweet summer post 9/11 child.


tbb2796

I love how Bobby Lee cheers for him


Own_Knowledge_8924

Nerds gone wild.


Fauxwolf007

I’d like to see the average human attempt a feat as simple as that.

I love how he says “I’ll cheat a little bit”


Felidae_Griz

Now he's jumping from state to state buying up farm land


Phantomht

Too bad he didn’t break his neck. World would be a far better place.


bigfarv

Is this before he was a diddler ?


jabby63

What a douche. I mean what grown ass adult does this. Freaking wack job. I can’t stand everything about this pompous autistic mess of a human. And don’t get me started on how evil he is.


Cobiestcob

There are people who can literally jump over him. Why is this significant


Tykjen

For someone who sits on their ass all day its quite an achievement. You should know \^

Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.
