I feel extremely shafted after my last interview

This is mostly just a rant about how out of touch some owners/ managers are when it comes to respecting potential workers: Went to a job interview, arrived about 15-20 minutes early (the location was new for me so I gave myself extra time and got there earlier than I expected to). Arrived while the business owner was in another interview, told his assistant manager I had zero problems waiting. Maybe 5 or 10 minutes later assistant manager takes me back to start the interview and says owner will join when he's done. Cool, no problem. Interview with him for a few minutes, he goes to check with owner. Owner tells him to “take the lead” and finish interview with me. At that moment i already knew i wasnt getting the job and just feel very insulted that the owner didnt even bother to meet with me at all. Obviously…

At that moment i already knew i wasnt getting the job and just feel very insulted that the owner didnt even bother to meet with me at all. Obviously didn't get the job, got the “we went with someone else but we would like to keep you on file in case things change in the future”. It feels kind of sleazy and rude to waste someone's time by not even bothering to get to them and instead passing it off on someone who can't even pull up their information (the assistant manager didn't have access to my resume or anything on his end).

Tl:dr; owner didn't bother with interviewing me, left it to assistant manager, so I feel shafted and like my time was wasted.
