I went to a job fair this morning at the buttcrack of dawn at Henry Ford Greenfield Village. After getting only 4 hours sleep (I'm house sitting for my SIL and had trouble sleeping last night) I got all dressed up and got there at exactly 8 a.m. After filling out TONS of paperwork and answering a 100 piece questionnaire, I made it to the application portion of it. There were TONS of people there!! I filled out the application. When my name was called, the guy took one look at me and my paperwork and said "After looking at your application, we have nothing available for you and will keep your resume on file!"
Yeah right!! All the way home I kept thinking about what I did wrong. Did I answer all the questions right?? Am I too old???I told them I was available ANYTIME, nights, weekends, you name it!! One of the papers asked for my age and date of birth, which I felt VERY uncomfortable answering. It SAID that it would be used for research purposes only and would not be included in my application.
The other people there were of less impressiveness, wearing jeans, torn shirts, hats backwards, tattoos, piercings, etc. ALOT of minorities.
I just don't get it.
