'That's not professional in my eyes': The controversial reason this person walked straight out of an interview


This is apparently an unspoken rule of job interviews, but do you actually follow this rule yourself? On the r/antiwork subreddit, 
u/Cavs1850 shared the one thing that made them get out of an interview so fast that they didn't even start it. 

As this writer shared, they showed up to an interview early, as one should. They were a few minutes early for a 1 PM interview, but by the time 1:05 rolled around, the manager conducting the interview was nowhere to be seen. Five minutes isn't the end of the world, but the manager kept the OP waiting and waiting. So by the time a half hour had passed by, the OP took action. 

The commenters were definitely not unanimous on this post —  some people thought the OP was rude and out of line for ditching the interview before it even started. But as one person pointed out, the company is on their best behavior during interviews, and they may never treat you better than that! So if you start off on the wrong foot and also notice management issues, maybe that says something about the company. These are the waving red flags, take note! 

Next, take a peek into the life of a hotel clerk. One person who works in a national park shared a story of a male Karen who demanded to light campfire under the worst possible circumstances, then got furious, ruining his own hotel visit.
