It's not an analogy - it's a common saying. Many sayings, even nursery rhymes have sinister origins. Eventually they enter the vernacular. I mentioned it because of the holier than thou "you candidates aren't worthy of responses and updates from such an amazing company' type attitude; they having gone to the considerable effort and expense of attending and passing the selection, and then others picking up on that and calling successful applicants "entitled", for wondering what's going on! . It's not normal. I know how it feels, having got booted out of BAs pool decades ago, but at least they gave us the courtesy of updates.
But hey, I came to this in a day when even unsuccessful CVs would yield a nice company headed letter in the post thanking me for my interest, and good luck!
