Meet Pat Pope – one of the Plan B team’s newest additions. We solicited some pretty questionable questions from our staff during his interview process. See what Pat had to say:
How many miracles have you performed in your life?
I once opened up a pack of Pop-Tarts and there were three inside instead two…does that count?
Do you drive a bulletproof car?
No, but both Popemobiles do have a lot of similarities. They lack air conditioning and neither one has had a woman in it.
Our dress code doesn’t allow for robes – will that be a problem?
I never leave the house without a finely pressed three-piece suit on. So, no. Next question.
How do you feel about people who pretend to sneeze, just to get to you to “bless” them?
The same way I feel about people who invite me to play pick-up football and let me be quarterback just so I’ll yell “Hail Mary!”
Why do you think people love Swiss cheese?
You probably want me to say because it’s “holy.” But I won’t. I’m gonna go with my heart on this. I think people love Swiss cheese because of its mild, yet distinct flavor and its versatility. In fact, my favorite thing to do with Swiss cheese is make a quick California Croque Monsieur. This is a twist on the traditional French-style Croque Monsieur that I make at the office during my lunch breaks.
You’ll need a fresh roll, preferably a baguette, a few slices of roasted turkey or ham (I prefer turkey for dietary reasons), a few thick slices of Swiss cheese, and an avocado. It’s so easy. Just slice the baguette, stack up your turkey and cheese, microwave it for 25-35 seconds (so the cheese gets melty, but not too melty), then smear the fresh avocado on it. There. You’re done. Enjoy.
That sounds delicious.
Thanks. It’s a family recipe.
Ok. Last question: if you were infallible, what would your first axiomatically statement be?
Summer Fridays start today.
But it’s Wednesday…
How dare you question the Pope!!!
(Crashing noise. screaming.)
