I gotta complain about this one somewhere, so a few weeks ago I applied for some medical receptionist position, got an interview, got turned down no surprise. Last week one of the interviewers sees me at my IRL retail job and per usual I’m like the only one able to ring up customers on a skeletal crew night and there’s a huge ass line of angry people, when she comes up she starts going off about how I’m in a bad position and she feels sorry for me. I’m thinking all sorts of rude things but say nothing and pretend to be too focused, such sorts are looking for a reaction. Probably the first customer in a while that realized I actually have an education rather than the usual ‘tee hee illegal tamagotchi never read a book, no habla ingles’ horseshit bigots I deal with day in and out. Still a bigot most likely, HR sorts are until proven otherwise. Yesterday I had a bunch of having the time of their lives giggling as 60-some year old boomboom children pretending they didn’t understand me. Come on now, a San Jose accent isn’t incomprehensible to a midwesterner.
