😲 A driver splashed me with mud at a pedestrian crossing, and a few hours later he was in my office: I was the one who had to interview him for a high-level position, and here is what I did.

One morning, on my way to work, I was standing at a pedestrian crossing when a black car sped past me, splashing me with mud.

My clothes, my bag, and even my face were soaked. I was stunned. At first, I thought he hadn’t seen me in time and couldn’t stop.

The car stopped a little further ahead, then turned around. I thought he might apologize. However, he didn’t even get out of the vehicle. He rolled down the window, looked me up and down with a smile, and shouted: “Why are you blocking the road? Red light or not, I’m in a hurry!”

Then he sped off again, splashing me a second time. I was shocked by such arrogance.

Later that day, when I was already at the office, the secretary told me that a candidate’s file was on my desk. When I opened it, I saw the same face. It was the man who had splashed me that morning. A highly qualified professional with an excellent profile.

When he entered, he looked confident… until he saw me. Realizing I was the person interviewing him for a $200,000 position, he froze.

I asked him to sit down, pretending not to recognize him… and here is what I did.

I let him sit, then placed his file in front of him.

“Your profile is excellent,” I said calmly, “but this position requires absolute exemplary behavior. This morning, you demonstrated the opposite.”

I then laid out much stricter conditions:

A contract with an immediate termination clause for any disrespectful behavior, without compensation.

A temporary demotion with a salary cut in half for one year.

Mandatory participation in an intensive ethics and stress management training program, with monthly public evaluations in front of the team.

And most importantly, a required field assignment where he would work directly with the public for six months, to truly understand the impact of his actions.
