Red Flag Job Interview Moments When People Knew They Weren't Gonna Take The Gig

We've all had moments in our lives when we've been happy to take whatever job we can get. Luckily, once you get a few years of experience under your belt, you get to the point where, not only do you have the ability to turn down horrible job offers, but you've also been to enough weird job interviews that you have the wisdom to look for job interview red flags.

Luckily for prospective job seekers, bad bosses are pretty stupid, argumentative, terrible liars who will usually show their true colors during the interview. And sometimes they'll just say some totally bonkers garbage like "I need you to sign this piece of paper saying that you are fine with my not paying you for 5 months."

Working for a crap employer is one of the most sure-fire ways to make yourself miserable, and it looks like these people were able to dodge some pretty serious bullets with their gut feelings and a dash of "oh hell na."
