An excited voice comes on the loud speaker, "And it's all over folks!"
It was all over. My life and career went out the window and I was in the hospital for a week.
I had lost the biggest fight of my life and I had only one choice; I needed a new job.

"So what qualifications do you have for this job?"
I looked nervously at the desk, "I don't have any."
"What?"
A bit more clearly, "I don't have any."
"I see... I guess I can train you, you're hired."
"Really?"
"Yep, Have fun at McSizzleburger!"
I adore this post. The beginning was so intriguing and was so descriptive. I felt as though I was reading the text from a novel. Then ending was completely different than I anticipated it to be. At first I thought that he was applying for a high ranking job, but in reality he was applying for a fast food restaurant. This also shows a little humor and a little horror in the idea of fast food workers having no experience.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the many reasons I don't like eating at fast food restaurants; after one training session a callow person, who barely knows how to make themselves ramen noodles, all of a sudden becomes a "trained professional". Also, McSizzleburger is a great name. You should start you own business.
