Where is the joke? Or the punchline?
Someone is about to have rats let loose in their restaurant
I’d definitely start prank calling that place to waste their time.
Another possibility: what if the manager had a bias and immediately lied to turn away the applicant because their race/gender/appearance/eyc.
Or instead of just immediately playing the bigotry card on some green text…
Person could have walked in and was drunk, or high. Having worked in kitchens way back when I have seen both with great regularity.
Person could have walked in and been immediately inappropriate especially with the front house.
Maybe it was an actual high-end restaurant where it requires somebody to have actual skills,
then just say “you’re drunk go home” not pretending like the application didn’t exist
Your assuming that all the details are in the story, and everything said was accurate. Or hell, the story even ever happened and wasn’t made up.
Here’s an example, of people not really connecting the dots when they tell their side of the story. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/t0QqrgWVvWw
Also, if a person shows up drunk to an interview, do you think they wouldn’t show up drunk to work? The kitchen is a dangerous place, I’ve personally seen many emergency room visits because someone was careless. And some people aren’t good at accepting “no” as an answer.
Someone is getting a lot of no-show reservations.
