Antiwork

If you don’t make at least minimum wage with tips, your employer is obligated to make up the difference. You can see this law under FLSA. (USA servers))

and it’s a fucking 200 question personality test. These companies are insane. Who in their right mind is willing to pay someone $125k/year but won’t take 10 minutes to call them on the phone and have a quick chat to see what kind of person they are? Pure lunacy.

The interview was to be split into two parts: the first interview was supposed to be at 10:30 with 2 people, and the second interview was supposed to be at 11:00 with 2 other people. For context, in preparation for this interview I: Had my suit dry cleaned (it was due). Cleaned and ironed my dress shirt. Shaved (which I don't like to do that often). Set up my camera, lights, and audio rather than use my laptop's built-in. (I do some videography on the side so I have camera and audio equipment, and setting it all up is kind of a pain but I wanted to have high quality audio and video).
