New to the Job
I was new to the job and still finding my way when a guy totally ruined my day. His words to me were nasty—he insisted that I “wasn’t capable” of the job due to my dwarfism.
He kept complaining about “inclusivity being bollocks” and stuff. What was most frustrating about the situation was that I was not a good waiter, but it was due to reasons unrelated to my dwarfism—poor memory, anxiety, coordination, etc.
He doubted my competence before I had even shown any of these issues. It was purely based on how I looked. That experience got to me for a long time. Permalink
