so when i was 14, my middle school had this career fair. i always got childcare on the career tests I took, so I decided to explore those options. one of the jobs for kids my age was this daycare/learning center where you could help kids as young as 14.

however, i called this one woman who worked there one evening, asking if they still hired. she sighed heavily, saying in an exasperated and rude tone, “you can’t just ASK someone if they hire and interview them!!” when asking is the only way I could find out.

“besides,” she continued, “we already filled all the positions in april, so just go away.”

am I in the wrong or was that unprofessional of her? I liken her behavior and responses to that one grumpy friend you called for the 1000th time at 3 a.m.
