That's pfg to me. What a wonderful world.

Internet ruined the job market ngl.
Internet ruined loads of everyday shit. You could buy a bottle of Coke and twist off the cap to find out you'd won another bottle just for buying their product in the first place. Now you gotta scan a QR code with your phone and send them your entire life to enter their database.

My father still thinks this is what happens.
A guy did this at the fine dining restaurant my sister worked at. The head chef was famous so I guess he thought it was a way to prove himself. They let him wash dishes and clean floors for like a week, didn’t pay him and then told him to fuck off once they got tired of the joke.

That’s a violation of a few labor laws. Surprised the famous chef wasn’t smart enough to not allow that to happen.

You walked in to a place, gave the owner a firm handshake, looked him in the eye, and asked for a job. If he says they don't have any jobs, you pick up a broom and start sweeping.
My grandfather claimed to have done this when he was 13 during the great depression.

The depression was already over by the time he was 13...


P.s.

If one of your grandfather's didn't tell you a similar story before you entered manhood he probably didn't love you.
