I almost walked out, but the salary was stupid high. Didn't
get the job. Thinking back on it, maybe it was just a test
and they did want me to say it was ridiculous.
Thinking about it, I see two realistic possibilities:
- They are being unintentionally stupid by asking you to do this activity.
- If they are intentionally asking you to do a stupid thing and they expect you to revolt in the interview and decry the madness. How does that make you feel about your future day-to-day life at that organization?
In both cases those are not good "A-player" types of people to work for.
No need to torture yourself over more favorable prospects "lost" :)
