A man showed up for a job interview near Sacramento naked and high on methamphetamine, and now cellphone footage of his fight with police has gone viral.

Jose Ayala didn't make the best first impression at a Del Paso Heights-area welding shop when he showed up last week frazzled and unclothed, says shop owner Chris Johnson, who added he won't soon forget the job applicant.

Welding shop? Naked?

That and frying bacon... two things not to do naked.

Well, it’s not like he tried to hide anything from the prospective employer...

I tend to reflect on unsuccessful interviews and try to find out my mistakes and learn from them. That shouldn’t be too hard in this case.

I once had a guy take his pants off on the job and he was running around in a pair of his sisters lime green stretch shorts.

Lime green stretch shorts and steel toed boots makes for a real fashion statement.

Thank you very much sir. We’ll keep your application on file, and if we ever have a job opening which requires a naked meth addict we’ll call you, m’kay?

No I heard he hung around longer than he should have trying to get the job and exposed himself to be a real big weenie.

On an application under job history I listed “Trustee at the Jackson County Jail”.

18 months later I was a foreman in the paint department.

Del Paso Heights, the Sacramento Ghetto and all around good place to stay out of, especially at night.

Welder? He wanted to be a naked welder? Normally those guys wear leather aprons and other types of protection. It’s not like he was applying to work on the phone bank. LOL
