I remember going into a PIzza Hut after being called in for an interview, guy doesn't even take me into the back room, he does it over the Cash Register; straight up laughs at me when I said it'd been a couple years and that it had been rough, and all I really wanted to do was get back to work.

He said he didn't want to hear my excuses, then he just laughed and said he'd never hire someone lazy.

A year later I had to report that same fucking pizza hut to corporate for wearing masks only half-way (To fool the cameras I guess) and giving me random rants about Trump when I was trying to order a pizza. Cancelled my order then and there, got Chinese Food instead, and reported them as I waited.

Meanwhile the Subway refused to hire me, because I had two last names and "They didn't sound American!"

They're both european surnames.... (my parents weren't married when I was born so I just got both), also I'm so fucking white that I eat Dark Chocolate candy bars not because I genuinely prefer the taste (I mean I do), but because at this point I'm worried that's the whole reason I haven't turned completely straight up transparent.

I hate this town.

Time to start doing job interviews wearing a wire.

Accidentally un-voted my first vote because I thought I gave it a new one, this made me exhale lmao.
