it's true that can work, but only in the short time-- soon after you're stuck in a bad situation with a job that sucks in a company you hate.

e.g. once i was desperate for a job and a friend lied for me to get me a job as a waiter. i played along. here's what happened:

1) my temperament is the wrong one for the job. i'm an introvert and not a faker. when i dislike people i frown at them. and running around all the time made me sweat. who the fuck likes a sweaty waiter. i don't. i sucked. would have made a better kitchen worker.

2) the restaurant sucked too and i hated it. the first day i was there i ate the "pesto" and when asked how it was i said how much i disliked heated up pesto (doh!). i may have been right but the cook got a boner for me as a result. bad move. the way i hated the menu made me a poor salesman at the table. (e.g, the pasta was precooked and people asked for "al dente" and i'd be at a loss to explain)

3) i never made enough money from tips, i was stressed out at work all day, and i got fired a couple of months later after knocking a bitch coworker to the ground (he was trying to punk me and coughed in my face on purpose and i let him have it)

much better to find a good fit from the start. doing a job just for the money is depressing.
