It’s especially annoying in public funded jobs because they’re often required to interview a bunch of people even if they’re already intending to give it to someone internal

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.

That could be what happened. Greentext is just a bunch of stories. If you really think about it, it’s just as likely that this is entirely made up.

Sadly some ‘jobs’ post positions just to collect resumes and sell the data. Just kicking us while we’re down really 😮‍💨

Lol restaurants don’t have time for that shit. Who would buy that kind of data from a restaurant anyway? Even if you had more than 200 applicants a month that would probably net you less than $10.

If it’s a chain I could definitely see corporate setting up some automated system to do that.

doesn’t need a chain. many companies save money offloading the application process to an external website, and that one manages it for a lot of different companies and then sells your data

Happens a LOT on LinkedIn. Be wary of recruiters who seem to immediately want your resume and nothing else before providing you with information.

Not just resumes either. I went through 2 interviews for a company, and then was suddenly ghosted after they’d collected the data they needed. They reached out to me, offering a position and when I told them how much I wanted for it (I didn’t realize I’d told them less than they had it listed for, since I hadn’t seen their job openings before being reached out to) they ghosted me and updated their job posting to match my desired pay
