have you ever seen this guy?

Set up an interview for a superintendent candidate a few years back. Plan was for the candidate to drive down to Charleston, eat lunch with my hiring authority, tour some job sites, etc.
The day after the interview, I called my hiring authority.
"How did it go? I asked innocently.
"Not so well," said my client. "Have you ever seen this guy?"
Gulp.
"No, why?
"Well, he's about 5'5", 300 pounds, mouth breather, pale and sweaty."
"Whoops."
"Yeah, whoops. He got tired following me across the restaurant."
And that was the last of my candidates that client ever interviewed.
