    So apparently I failed.

    There was an assessment part of the application for Buffalo Wild Wings that I had to take. Literally like 1st grade level math and english questions.

    That I know I answered right.
    And that I know I got them ALL right.

    APPARENTLY I failed it, so my application got rejected.

    What? No. I did not.

    This just ruined my day. I feel like an idiot if I can't freaking get past submitting applications.

    I don't deserve a job, I guess.

    Shit happens!
    i know I fucked up on an easyyyy question when I was going to my interview to deal poker. I guess I was nervous cuz there was a bunch of "pros" in there. But I still got in cuz I did good on everything else. So just stick with it and you will find something!
    What's my definition of success?
    Creating something no one else can
    Being brave enough to dream big
    Grindin' when you're told to just quit
    Giving more when you got nothin' left

    That sucks, I'm sorry if it makes you feel any better, I somehow managed to fail my gym final today.

    I want to slap you for being a downer.

    We all make mistakes, silly mistakes. Even the distinguished Harvard PhD. holder that forgets to check the toilet roll before dropping a deuce.

    You probably just had a small slip, like 1 + 3 = 5.
    Apply elsewhere. There's more than one BWW in FL. More than one food joint in FL. More than one job application in FL.

    The questions were like:

    If Jimmy has 35 orders, and he has done 7 of them already, how many does he have left to do?
    28
    24
    46
    2

    or

    Kathy will ______ the dog
    walked
    walk
    walking
    walks

    SERIOUSLY!? How do I fail THAT!?

    Not anywhere that's by me. I can only work within 5-10 minutes of my house. And I've applied at just about every place.

    And I have been rejected by just about every place.

    I know I can get a job at McDonald's, but I've been calling all day and it's just a freaking busy signal.

    I assuming you can't LOOK at the corrections of your answers for these? It'd give a lot of closure if you could..

    WOWWWWWW.

    I finally got through to the McDonald's and introduced myself and said I was calling about my application and she went,

    "Oh you'll have to call back." and instantly hung up.

    I understand McDonald's gets busy. I worked at one.

    BUT WHAT THE FUCK!? Oh my days just keep getting worse and worse!

    /patpat real life, bro, real life. =( there's lots of douches in establishments like that who don't want to hire you in case you do better or something. I hope you can find somewhere that needs and appreciates your skills. ><

    From the age 15-18 I applied everywhere from various fast food & non-fast food restaurants (McDonalds, Burger King, Subway, etc.), grocery stores, local shops, gas stations and such. I never got a call from ANY of them. I applied multiple times to the same places as well. Trust me, life it gets better.
