Ever hire a fundy?

[mondo joe]

I'm hiring for a job and one applicant is a major fundy.

Fortunately this applicant is also extraordinary unqualified for the position, so I doubt he'd ever make the second or third cut much less the first cut for interviews.

I strongly support freedom of religion and would never seek to discriminate on that basis.

But before I realized how unqualified the applicant was I was struck by the possibility of working very closely with someone whose worldview is so different from my own.

1. consider office culture

I've denied hiring a fundy at one job simply because he would not fit in with the office culture.

We were a rowdy bunch, and teamwork was extremely important in this job.

2. Good point.

Sometimes I let my ideals get in the way of practical functioning.
