Just Practicing…
Once I applied for a job at the gym near my house. It was just a job at the front desk. Anyway, I waited and waited to hear back from them. When I finally received a letter in the mail from them it said something like, “Thank you for applying for the position. We’re sorry to inform you that we have no positions available. We were just trying to gauge the number of applications we’d receive if we did have a position available.”
What the heck is that all about? To this day it baffles me. I don’t think it’s true. I just think they didn’t want to hire me. No big deal, but why not send an average sorry-we’ve-already-filled-the-position letter? Who advertises for a job that doesn’t really exist? Craziness. I thought about it because I walked by that place today.
