A better example than Hooters

Maybe my point of Hooters was lost in the fact that I used Hooters. I'll give you another example. A local school in America was hiring a Spanish teacher. They had the audacity to put in their ad that they wanted a teacher who was from Spain. That just made me so angry. That meant, just because I wasn't a sexy sleek man from Spain, that I couldn't have the job?

So, I filed a complaint with the school district, and I forced the school to change their ad. It now read, "looking for Spanish teacher, all welcome to apply" Unfortunately, I still didn't get the job even though I have a PHD in Spanish from Harvard University. Seems like they were really serious about wanting a native speaker of Spanish and I just wasted my time, and so did a lot of other people who needlessly applied, and of course so did the poor HR staff who had to read through thousands of resumes needlessly.

So, once again I got angry. I complained to the school board that if the school only wants a native speaker of Spanish from Spain, then they should put that in the job advert and not waste my time. I then held a small riot and burned down three houses and smashed some cars. I also stood out side the local Spanish restaurant in town and hurled insults at al those inside.
