Well not, not legally (unless it would be a safety issue), but they
wouldn't actually tell him that, they'd just find a more suitable
candidate.

By which time you'll have dropped down the list of suitable candidates.

That's the ewhole point isn't it. Lozzo's concerned that if he doesn't tell
them, they'll sack him if they find out and yet if they find out before they
hire him, they just won't hire him in the firsdt place.

I'd keep my gob shut and if they kicked up a fuss when (if) they found out,
I'd consider lawyering up and fighting.

Actually *I* wouldn't, coz I've not worked for anyone (so no interviews)
since the early 80's and I'm not about to start now.
