Default What NOT to write on your application.

This guy came into the Courtyard Marriot Hotel I bartend at and submitted an application for employment as a housekeeper. No bull...he wrote this on the back of his application...

"I really want a job. I need extra money for grocery shopping, soap, shampoo, and medical expenses. I don't know why, but I have had a mild depression for a long time. I usually have little, or no appetite and I hardly eat anything. But then, after awhile, I might have some extra money and I'll end up eating too much and I'll start to get gascious and feel anxious.

I also need money to get to the dentist. I don't want a car because that would mean I would have to work more and have lesser fun in my life than what I already have. I don't have a lot because all I can do is work, starve, and play video games. Occasionally I watch some porno. It's fun, but it's not a healthy habit. Other than that, I have no friends, and I really want a girlfriend. I just want enough money for food, fun, and new video games for XBOX360 and Playstation 2. And then again, there's the everyday life stuff, regular movies, and toiletries."

Cliff Notes: Guys submits application giving his life story about being depressed, watching ****, wanting a girlfriend, but not wanting to work too much.


Seriously...I'd hire the guy out of sympathy! Well, not really...but it's humorous. The hotel called him back to set up an interview...just to see what this guy is really about. Haha.

We had a guy like that try and get a job with us once. We have this thing where if they let us know how desperate they are for money and how willing they are to get it by any means necessary, we will not hire that person. That is the person that would steal.
