That’s a mic-drop moment
I went in for an interview and after a few minutes of waiting the receptionist told me I could go into the office to meet the manager.
As I walked in, he was on the phone so he motioned for me to have a seat.
He then proceeded to talk on the phone for 10 minutes. It was clearly a personal call and not business related. He just let me sit there while he talked. When the call was done he didn’t say anything, he just opened up a folder and started filling out some papers.
After about 5 minutes of him doing paperwork, I asked if there was anything I could help with. I was just looking to break the awkward silence. He said, “Nope, be with you shortly.” And he went back to work.
Another several minutes went by and he finally finished. He then looked at me and said, “Why do you want to work here?” I said, “I don’t think I do.”
He then asked what I meant and I told him, “If you are going to act like a jerk towards me before we have even spoken, I can’t imagine what it must be like to actually work for you.” With that, I got up and left.
