So I decided to look for a temporary part time job for some extra cash, and I look online at the job ads. I see this ad for a temporary part time job at a kennel, basically a dog daycare service. I've worked in one a few years back, so I fill out the application online and apply. The lady emails me back and asks if I can come in for an interview on Monday and I say sure. I write back asking for the address, something I always do when going to an interview.
The lady doesn't answer me, but says could I do Tuesday instead? I say sure and ask for the address again. Come early Tuesday she still hasn't replied and didn't leave a phone number. I sigh, and look up online for the place. All I know is that it's in this big maze like nearby city that I have gotten lost in before, and I really need directions. I refuse to get lost there again. I can't even be sure of the name of the place and if there's parking, because I know that there is not too much from my last trip there. I was a little upset but not too much, since I know I could just apply somewhere else. Then my phone rings.
I say hello and the lady asks for me. I say this is me and she yells "Where are you?!"
I say after a pause that I didn't know where the place was, so I had asked her, but she had never replied to my email.
She huffs angrily and says in this really snippy tone, "Welllll, there is a THING called the internet you KNOW!!!!!!!"
I say that I was looking on the internet but still couldn't be sure of the place, trying to explain that I had gotten lost in that city before and really needed directions. IShe just scoffs and laughs sarcastically at whatever I said.
Finally, after a very awkward pause, she says nastily, "WELLLLL, since you're too stupid to find us (yes she used those exact words), we don't want to hire you anyway!" And I say well, that's just excellent with me. And I hung up QUICK.
I was mad, but I was mostly in shock. No one has ever spoken to me like that outside of work, at least not a complete stranger I've never met. I felt very sorry for the dogs that she took care of, but relieved for the bullet I just dodged. Can you imagine what type of boss she'd be? One that bites your head off for sneezing I would think. Maybe she became feral after dealing with animals all day. I wish I could describe how nasty she was. Phew.
