Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, I was rejected from a restaurant that I wanted to work in during summer break. I asked the reason why I got rejected and the manager told me that I'm not extroverted enough to communicate with customers. I'd applied for the kitchen job. FML

Today, my job application got denied once again. I looked over it, and saw that my roommate added "screwing over customers" and "hiding dead bodies" under my skills. FML

Tough crowd

Today, I was told that I don't meet the minimum requirements for a job I applied for. I currently hold the same job, at the same facility, but just wanted a day shift. Apparently I'm not qualified for the job I've had for 2 and a half years. FML

Wow. I bet they just told you that because they didn't want to give you the job. Or they really think you overqualified and want to give someone else a chance

This sort of thing happens SO often, it's frightening. You need experience to work at fast food. You need experience to restock shelves at the store. You need experience to run a cash register. You need experience for the simplest levels of employment, yet no one will hire you to obtain said experience. What the hell happened?!

If you're a woman you should have enough experience because you're always in the kitchen... Or your employers noticed slap marks from when you left the kitchen.

You probably came into the place unshowered and stinky. They just didn't think you had experience washing anything, let alone dishes.
