I walked into an interview today and was asked if I planned to have kids or get married anytime soon because they didn’t want to hire anyone who would miss work (illegal to ask in my province). They wanted this part time job to take priority over school and schedule school around it. When I stated I had a month long leave out of the country from Jan 9-Feb 9, I was almost not offered the job and was told they’d never heard of someone needing that much time off. In the employee handbook, you’re not allowed to book time off in the summer (tourist season for the mall the store is located at), during the Christmas season or during any other busy days like Boxing Day and Black Friday. They expected staff to work on Christmas, no one allowed off. The owner then bragged about her upcoming trip to America next summer. I have never wanted to puke more in an interview.
