OFFICIAL SIDEKICK INTERVIEW FORM - CONFIDENTIAL!!!
#1. Are you willing to wear a silly costume? See, only the top dog gets the really cool uniform, all black and gray and nasty and scary-looking. We'll dress you up in...oh, let's see - red, yellow, and green!
2. Are you used to a 9-5 routine? That won't apply here.
3. Are you comfortable always playing second fiddle, being killed off repeatedly, and being required to utter inane phrases constantly?
4. You MUST be over 30 for this position, as we have to give the illusion that you're 16 or so.
5. Sorry, no cowl - our budget is tight this year. You'll have to make do with a cheesy black eye mask that we made with some scissors and a sleep mask.
6. You'll always get SECOND choice of the really cool vehicles, you realize...
7. You'll need to keep going to school for as long as you're a sidekick. Are you comfortable with that?
8. You MAY be allowed, on rare occasions, to save your Superhero, but realize that HE will get ALL the credit in the end.
9. We removed the Sidekick pole from the cave - are you willing to slide sloppy-seconds?
10. Don't leave your number - we'll flash the Batsignal if we want to see you for a second interview.
Thanks for coming in, and good luck!
