A pal of mine had an interview years ago, and the boss, evidently a bit like CJ from Reggie Perrin asked "I don't like 'yes men'; you're not a 'yes man' are you?" Slightly non-plussed he gave the only reasonable answer "No, certainly not", which seemingly satisfied the guy. A rather bizarre exchange
🧥Went to a restaurant last night, the waiter said "For starters there's badger soup, followed by roast badger and finishing with badger mousse”
Is there anything else apart from badger?" I asked.
“No", he replied. "It's a sett menu."
We don’t know how lucky we are to have the job we have. We had a guy decorating the house for the last three days, I got chatting to him and it turns out he’s a Ryanair pilot. He’s decorating now to try and pay his mortgage, sad times but in fairness he did a great job on the landing.

IME the one thing "I don't like yes men" types hate is when you disagree with them.
