Semi Adult

I keep seeing the Truth commercials where they use hidden cameras to conduct fake job interviews to get across some ridiculous message about tobacco companies (smoking is cool, I don’t care what anyone says). I think it’s pretty ballsy that at a time when people are desperately seeking employment and there are, on average, five people interviewing for every open position that they fuck with people like this. Can you imagine sending out resumes for months and finally getting called into an interview and then they embarrass the hell out of you by asking ridiculous questions and then at the end are like ‘Psych! You’re on candid camera!’ I’m surprised one of their victims hasn’t gone postal and pulled out a machine gun on that dick that interviews them. Unemployed people are pretty mentally unstable, trust me, I know. And speaking of fake interviews someone I know applied for a bartending job at some dump bar on the Upper East Side and was informed that there were 600 applicants. 600. At that point, how do you even pick someone, like you could probably get someone to pay you for working there or at the very least make them sleep with you for the job. Although I guess that’s not that different than applying for a job in the corporate world.
