At some point at a different point in my life I was having second round interviews with a top Wall Street bank. You know the kind, fancy lux lobby, tie is compulsory, everyone going in and out with id cards locked on their belts, everyone cares about money only and everything else means weakness, sexy women in high heels and light grey attires in reception, elevators that take you to the 45th floor in 15sec. and without any noise.
I was placed at an office room to have the interview while in awe of the high stunning view of the water through the bottom to ceiling windows all around the office. First interviewer comes in, we talk for 15min, goes ok, nothing spectacular and then goes out and I'm waiting for another guy. Being a little impatient as I am I start walking around the office a bit and spontaneously I open couple cupboards of an office closet on the wall closing them again right after. I was more like bored than curious to see what's inside. Despite my quickness, second interviewer comes in when I'm about to close the second cupboard. I was sure he did not catch me in the act. But judging from the quickness of the interview and in hindsight later, I can only imagine what he transferred to his supervisor regarding my quick dismissal.
