lilbuddy- i think you should hybridize your past patches on the sleeves for the bookstore interview with the glasses idea for this interview and get yourself an eyepatch. nothing says serious like an eyepatch.
2 Things:
1) Glasses worked for Phillip Johnson (sure wasn't what he designed)
2) Zaha probably goes home w/ a lot of glasses-wearing (corbu-style) drunks. Geesh, now there is a real disconnect between reality & web-page.
I guess that's kinda mean, but it just gets my goat when broads don't look as good when you're sober. I was actually talkin' 'bout PJ. OK, now I'll just shaddap.
Unfortunately I'm saving my pirate costume for September 19th, official Talk Like a Pirate Day. New Yorkers, spread the underground word: Staten Island Ferry, 5:30 on...dress up and bring rum...haggle the locals...
During the interview, while you are responding to one of their comments stop them mid sentance and do the following:
Interviewer: "So...What we're looking for is......"
You: "Sorry to inttrupt you but the lighting in her is diabolical...Would you mind if I adjusted one of these track lights?"
This is assuming though that the architects office has track lighting...I'd be suprised if it did not.....
After reaching up with a 24" roll of trace paper and trying to adjust the light fixture for a good 5 minutes stop and study it.. Place your thumb and index finger on your chin and look as if your in deep thought....Squint a little.....Then say the following:
"Well, it's not what I had hoped for, but it should suffice enough for me to at least continue"
That stunt alone is worth an extra $15,000/year if you can pull it off.
i knew this girl who had 'fake' glasses..... you could tell they didn't have a perscription in them. apparently the reason she wanted them was to look more like an hk fob.
needless to say i was absolutely baffled and lost respect for her.
part of the point of an interview is to be yourself and for you and them to find out if you're the right fit for each other. starting off with something false won't do you any favours.
additionally, i'd be more concerned about how you carry yourself than the glasses on your face. if you're a goofy person with glasses then you're better off without... think urkel.
otherwise, go the full out extreme, wear all black, some white little bow tie, and a bowler and toss in that english accent from marlowe.
Fake glasses for job interview
?

mmmmm... stylish wench..
You talkin' 'bout the pirates, or Zaha? Zarrrgggh!
LOL - both really. Can't you see Zaha as the insane captain of the Slighty Off White Pearl? Angle the mainsail or you'll walk the plank. arrr
How 'bout a monocle? Seems to work for the Monopoly guy.

Yarr, pirates!!!

The monocle will also show your potential employer that all of the Western side of your projects will be spot-on.
Arrrggggh, I hear thars plenty buried treasure on Staten Island. I fear for those on the Staten Island Ferry.
damn mwad, you beat me to the monkey with glasses.
hahahaha...
nobody mistake me, i wear glasses too but i somehow can`t resist postings these pics.
Jordi always looked like a Buick.
shit! sorry..
chances are if the interviewers look like this;
you'll need these;
betadinesutures, are you sill recuperating and thus have lots of time to post ridiculous responses like the one above? I sure hope so, LOL!!!
Thats great
jeffe, max fischer is my idol.
and the glasses idea is redonkulous... what are you going to do if you get the job, wear the fake glasses every day?
tell them i got contacts?
British accents also help.........

Good luck!

where is the silent disapproval robot when we need it.
yeah i am home recuperating...go back next tuesday.....i should probably take this time off and design something.
three words: fake contact lenses...
really go all the way.
archi-geek - I think we have a winner for the t-shirts with that one
damn its cool - you just need "archi-geek" under that
if i didnt want a job, I would go to the interview dressed as a pirate
Dude if you wore 3d glasses to an interview you would be the most awesome person ever!
It would show your ability to think in 3d.
maybe you should get a wheelchair and a speakerbox setup ala stephen hawking. i mean if you're gonna fake it you gotta fake it big.
man i used to look like that.
Just wear the frames with no lenses in them so you get the best of both worlds...honesty and architectylookingness.
vado is richard meier!
