(I’m interviewing for a position as a dishwasher in a local diner, and the manager seems nice.)
Manager: “Would you like to be a cook?”
Me: “Um, no. I don’t know how to cook.”
Manager: “Who doesn’t know how to cook?”
Me: “Me.”
(He kept insisting that I be a cook, even though I told him I would rather wash dishes. He seemed very disappointed and never called me back. I found another job elsewhere. I don’t know why they would advertise for a dishwasher and need a cook. Very weird.)
