I Have A Brunch This Isn’t Going To Work Out

Applicant: “I would like to apply for the position as a breakfast waitress, but I have one question. I can only work afternoons from 2 pm onwards. Would that be a problem for you?”

Me: “May I ask what time you generally have breakfast?”

Applicant: “…Why?!”

Me: “Well, our hotel guests would like their breakfast in the morning, say mostly between 8 and 10 am. 2 pm is too late for them.”

Applicant: *very disappointed* “Um… so you don’t think it is going to work, do you?”
