“What novel are you reading right now?”

How about none of your damn business and what does that have to do with being a law professor?

What is the *worst* question you’ve ever been asked in a job interview? This employment lawyer wants to know.

My top two (both were from law school during OCI):

When I was a junior lawyer in British Columbia in 1990s, I did cases in BC, other western provinces.

Opposing counsel would often introduce me to arbitrator, “Have you met Mr Doorey, he’s from Toronto”

At first I thought ‘very polite’. Soon realized I was being “othered”!
