Most Embarrassing Job Interview / Worst Job Interview

[@kimnapoleone9934]

I LOVE when you dub each other’s voices! My fav was Lola as THE airline associate delaying your flight.

[@holdernessfamilylaughs]

thanks!!

[@peggyharris7849]

That was my favorite, too!

[@pamelaa0613]

Same

[@miagatland1442]

Omg yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!

[@gaydumbass871]

Yeah

[@angelafink6029]

Penn I can say I’m glad you didn’t get that job because you are so funny and I wouldn’t have gotten to see how funny you are.

[@holdernessfamilylaughs]

Thank you! Everything happens for a reason.

[@oaktree7441]

Holderness Family Vlogs I agree with you & Angela Fink. You are too funny to do the boring news. You get to spend more time with your family, you, your family & we the viewers have more fun. The news just spreads doom & gloom. You now spread laughter. This is a step up.

[@peggyharris7849]

Best. Embarrassing. Story. EVER!!!

[@holdernessfamilylaughs]

Oh Barbara.

[@MorganHazelwood]

I did that, too! I mean, not to DIANE SAWYER. But while the interview was wrapping up, they asked if I had any questions, and I asked, "What's your average day, working for [OTHER company that I have an interview scheduled with]

[@beckylsparks]

😂😂😂😂

[@olivia-th9lx]

“Nice to meet you Barbara”😂😂

[@MsHiker100]

This is definitely something that would happen to me. I have turned so many great interviews into a train wreck. 😂 I’m your case, I’m so inspired by the way you turned this around. And your children get both their parents home , open space outside of NYC, and lots of laughter. What a blessing.

[@tinawoman]

But if you had gotten the job you would be a different person now. You’d still be working for other people, living life the ways others dictate instead of mapping your own life freely, with your own business the way you have the freedom to do now. And I would bet your kids would be growing up with a dad too busy with work to spend much time with them. AND we wouldn’t have all the joy you bring us from your videos. But you know all this. We love you. We are glad you didn’t get the job. Keep the great stuff coming!

[@Haley497]

[@ginnykemerer2708]

Oh my gosh, Penn, you get so much credit for being able to laugh at this and actually make a video. And I love every video where you dub each other's voices. awesome.

[@katiescholar3731]

"Penn holderness is....amazing!" thats true. this story is so funny!!!

[@MHall-lm7oy]

Yeah... This also gave me a hint of anxiety as my heart fell at the end of that story. Thanks for sharing, Barbara. Love!

[@holdernessfamilylaughs]

welcome to my life.

[@MrsABC7997]

I have to completely agree! Penn you didn't get that job because the Lord knew that you, Kim, Lola, Penn Charles, and Sunny were needed for a higher purpose! Y'all have literally been our saving grace with every video you have made since we found you in December 2019! And we have seen all your videos from before as well! Your family has been one big blessing for my family to keep positive & faithful! We can never thank you enough! Please don't stop! God bless your family!🙏❤

[@danielwey]

Your audience really appreciate that it didn't work out :-)

Clearly, Diane has not seen Christmas Jammies

[@lorrainestarks6628]

You folks got me through this pandemic with your songs & parodies. God bless you guys! LAUGHTER WAS MY BEST MEDICINE!!

[@CumulusSkies]

At 5:03, I busted out laughing when Penn called her Barbara AGAIN! 🤪

[@jolie.baker09]

And her reaction is the best!! 🤣🤣

[@LifeWithMrsB]

Poor Penn!! :D That's too funny though! But everything happens for a reason for sure lol

[@holdernessfamilylaughs]

Agreed!

[@holistic-heather]

Best true story ever!!! 🤣🤣🤣That was hilarious!! At least it did turn out best, because now we get to enjoy your KZbin videos!

[@jfr7160]

Raw truthfulness!! Well think of it this way... you wouldn’t have probably gotten all that free glow in the dark Elmer’s Glue either!

[@Sunflowers9191]

Oh poor Penn but that had me cracking up haha. I’ve definitely had a few crappy job interviews as well. Once I had one over the phone and when I failed to answer her question twice I just hung up and blocked her 😅

[@laceyrose2636]

😂😂😂😂 Im so glad i read the comment section !

[@beckylsparks]

Oh my gosh!!😂😂And blocked her?!😂😂😂

[@susand]

Omgosh! I busted out laughing. That is so funny!

[@garlandajoyce1980]

hahaha this was just awesome! Kim just cringed when Penn said he called her Barbara instead of Diane lol Totally lost it at Kim saying "whatever we are doing now" lol You are a youtube sensation, that's what this is!!! While it was embarrassing for Penn, we who love your family are grateful that it lead you to this. You keep us laughing all the time & we enjoy seeing your family adventures or mess ups lol

[@holdernessfamilylaughs]

Thank you for the love.

[@WonderfulWorldOfWendy]

So Sorry you didn't make the Network, but that was hilarious. I was in TV & Radio News and had dreams of being the next Barbara Walters. That dream faded when after a great package.. I went to the News Director to see what he thought and he said, "Next time use more hair spray". Yeah.. I was bummed! I stayed in news for about 6-more years. Now I'm a voice over talent and much happier. :)

[@maryroberts589]

Wow! Just, wow! I'm grateful this happened, because otherwise we wouldn't have the magic of the Holderness Family to get us through quarantine. But still...Wow!

[@juliesm1]

That was priceless! I loved this story it would be really amazing if Diane Sawyer saw it and contacted you too.

[@Youknowwhoiam1234]

To be honest, if that’s the reason you didn’t get the job, you probably would have been miserable. Some people are legends in their own mind. No body is any smarter or better than another person. They just have different experiences.

[@MackRangerPower]

“How much did Matt Laurer make? 20 million? Private office?” Me: *subscribe* also dead

[@barbie3139]

Still really shallow of her if she knew it was an innocent mistake. On the other hand, the cesspool that news has become, its probably a big blessing!!! I love how kind you two are to each other! Great example for all married couples!!

[@kylepifer9509]

😆😝that’s almost as bad as my husband talking to a realtor for commercial property. And asking if he could call him Bob,he said if you want to but my name is Mike.

[@lianne3335]

Haha, I get the name thing! Blame it on the ADHD! I have ADHD and I can never get people's names right. My poor kids.

[@DoingLifeDeliberately]

You guys are awesome!! Thanks for making me laugh. I hope I get to meet you someday!😁

That Matt Lauer comment killed me 😂😂😂😂😂😂

This happens a lot. I remember during my time as a customer service representative being called Margaret, Kelly, and one time, Stephen! Ahhh...the good ole days.

[@hopeseeker97]

You would have had to follow a script. You wouldn't be sharing your talents and your beautiful family with all of us. You even cause us serious folks to crack a smile! :)

[@slrbiz7510]

Thanks for the laughs!

[@oliviawarren3237]

Today I described the Holderness family as the “KZbin family that I like” #1 of 2. I love the whole family gets involved on the Holderness channel ❤

[@cloudbear393]

I noticed that Penn said "No one deserves what happened toTHEM"... I guess he was scared of accidentally saying Barbara for the second or third time instead of Diane!!! LOL!!!

[@cherylcarlson3315]

In the midst of pandemic election hell am reminded of everything I did wrong, felt certain everyone else had skated around what tripped me. Thanks for reassurance

[@susanquiroz1771]

Wow that's another brave situation you have shared with us viewers, thank you for sharing and we all have gone through some sort of predicament, I too Love Diana,

[@miabryant5493]

Well, thank God you got to keep making videos! Love you guys!

[@jobethk588]

Oh my. Classic (f)mess-up but did happen for a reason. Love your channel!

[@johnmarshall504]

Once again, I can totally relate. And wish I couldn't.

[@wacgirl123]

Totally something I would do! That’s why I just never say anyone’s name out loud, ever. Because in my head I’m always second guessing myself. It’s ok Penn! Wasn’t meant to be….

Dubbing each other's voices is the best.

[@ronwaters478]

When wrapping up an interview, I say "it's been great meeting you, too !" BUT I make sure I never use their name, out of the same concern. After a multi-hour technical interview, my brain is fried. So the likelihood of making a similar mistake is pretty high.

[@jffmrk]

Love your stories. Very entertaining.

[@holdernessfamilylaughs]

Thank you so much.

[@randomspirit]

That's brutal. LMAO!

[@cly2fan]

I love these stories I feel like less a failure 😂

[@geegwatson2349]

I'm a new sub & fan. Love both of your YT channels. 1st- I think it was providence that Penn accidentally called Diane, Barbara. What you do as a family with your songs, blogs, etc., bring smiles to so many faces. In a world gone crazy at the moment, your channels are a breath of fresh air & we come away feeling positive ~ thank you for that. 2nd ~ No offense, especially as Kim likes Diane, but seriously you dodged a bullet Penn working with someone that is so shallow that you weren't hired simply because you goofed on her name. Diane Sawyer could've laughed it off ~ I'm sure you weren't the first with this blunder and I would also bet that Diane has also in her life accidentally called someone by the wrong name. You & your family don't need all the blustery, super-sized egos that come with Network News, especially right now. So consider this experience Diene Sawyer's loss and KZbin's gain. Wishing your family all the best in your endeavors. :D

[@isab3llacaryl348]

Omg hi your family is so sweet

[@janavos9901]

It's happened to me as well... not with a celeb, but with an acquaintance that I thought was someone else because they looked similar... Most embarrassing thing EVER. I always laugh when you call it The KZbin... we had a grandparent who told us to ask one of her daughters, who has Amazon's number... she's sure they'll be able to help us find this item.... 🤣

[@alwaysaubrey1064]

Hahahaha love this yall

[@throwawayjones6005]

It was an innocent mistake Penn. I would’ve given you the job. People call me by the wrong name all the time. Loved the video! ❤

Oh, that sounds like something I would do when I’m nervous! I usually avoid calling someI just met by name for fear of getting it wrong. 😩

oh my gosh! That is hilarious! I did something similar... I was playing with Cali, my friend, and i called her Ava, my sister's name!

It happens.

I am so awful with names, and even the wrong words come out sometimes (children, go comb your teeth). This so could have happened to me.

[@VioletNKisHere]

My mother said she once had the weirdest job interview ever to a grocery store and she had the job for like 6 months to a year. She would keep switching rooms and their were 3 people interviewing her. The first asked her questions like “do you know the grocery store?” And “Do you know why your here?” The second just left The third asked to leave her contact information and she was hired.

[@bluubreezes]

I SAW AN ADD WITH PENN IN IT FOR THIS VIDEO!!!!!!!!!! I am shook!

[@PhilsFamily]

Haha, oh no!! I know my worst job interview was right after leaving the military. The kid interviewing me must have been 18 or 19. He was asking me about my experience in work. My only experience to date was the military (and a job at kmart when I was 16) but I start talking about the military and everything. Im looking at this kid who had never seen anything like what I describing and probably never would. I mean it was a job at dominos... so maybe good I didn't get it. But I think I intimidated that poor kid.

[@holdernessfamilylaughs]

That's not a bad thing!

[@karriburkhart4367]

oh Penn...it was a honest mistake, but man how embarrassing! ! Love where you guys are at now; ot happened for a reason...to make everyone laugh at your videos!!
