The Corporate Ladder
"I appreciate your honesty," the employer says, reaching forward to shake your hand.
You sigh internally, looks like you made the right choice.
"We'll let you know if we want to hire you in a few days."
You walk out of the office feeling good about yourself. The truth about coming in late sometimes even seems to balance lying on your resume a little.
A week passes and you don't hear from the company. You try to call and talk to the man who interviewed you, but are always told he is out of the office or in a meeting. None of your calls are returned.
After three months, your savings are depleted and you are evicted from your apartment.
One day while begging for spare change and hunting for pigeons, you see the man who interviewed you walking down the street.
You approach him and ask him why he never returned your calls.
"Help, I'm being mugged by a vagrant!" the man yells to a passing police car. You are shot 43 times by police officers who later testify that they believed the pigeon you were holding was a gun.
