    I was a bar manager and used to get a flood of applicants every time I needed to hire people. I wasn’t particularly picky since I was always happy to train people up to my standards since I usually had to untrain bad habits anyways, so I would only schedule one interview at a time and generally just hired the first person I interviewed to save myself the work unless their vibes were off.

    The one time I interviewed someone where I thought “damn he’s hot asf”, seemed nice, could answer my questions and he was experienced in the role, so I hired him on the spot. I have never had to fire someone so fast. Dude lost his shit at another bartender for bumping into him, I gave him a warning and told him it would be his only one. Shit happens, it’s a tight space.

    Then a customer that was smoking in the alley after we shut asked him a question as we were leaving and he said “why the fuck are you talking to me”. Had to tell him not to bother coming in for his next shift…
