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 as "lazy as me"
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 next door 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.
