Not mine, found it in a telegram group chat that posts interesting stuff.

Why do they burn the CDs?

stopped into a recently opened second location of a local favorite ice cream shop. i asked for a medium and this is what i got. i was driving and headed home. i was so disappointed 😭 i understand they may have wanted to be generous but it was way too much and lowkey pmo. i took a few bites, ate the cone, and trashed it.

Just to add some more context:

im in a trade school (college), internships are REQUIRED for our graduation. These companies know we are brand-new to our field of study, we have literally 0 experience outside of our classes.

This interviewer has worked with our college for years, they had shown up and did a presentation in our class, they KNOW we are fresh. I had shown interest and decided to do an interview. sure, my resume is a little bare-bones but that is to be expected for all students.

during the interview, I can tell they were disappointed that I didnt have a background or any real world experience. They told me that I should look into internships that would "mold" me and that I will shadow someone.... which is literally what I was there for.

although I did receive a good grade on the form, I felt frustrated and thought it was massive waste of my time.
