Random Quickest That People Have 'Noped' Out Of A Job (18 items)

• (#18) If They Start Talking About Pizza, Don't Bother Staying

  From Redditor /u/apocalypticradish: 

  The ad said it was for a "summer house painting job" and it had a fixed wage. The guy didn't even have an office and wanted me to meet him at Panera Bread, which should've been my first red flag, but I was 20 and really wanting a summer job so I met the guy. He almost immediately started giving me a speech about "pieces of pizza" and "the harder I work and recruit, the more pieces of pizza I'd get." I asked if that meant no fixed wage and he said "yeah but there's the POTENTIAL to make a ton of money!" Then he asked if I'd be willing to go door to door trying to sell people on a paint job and I just got up and left. He said I'd regret it and when I saw a guy waiting to interview, I told him not to waste his time. As I was pulling out of the Panera lot, I saw the guy who'd been waiting for his interview walking out looking [angry], so I assumed he figured it out pretty quick.
• (#17) Your Coworkers Should Never Leave You Alone On Day Two

  From Redditor /u/PLDJules: 

  Second day at Rue 21 and the managers plus other coworkers all went out to lunch together and left me alone in the store. I wasn't able to ring up people yet and the store was packed. I just walked out.
• (#16) These Are Not The Parents You Want To Employ You

  From a former Redditor: 

  I work as a nanny. But when I first got into childcare I was just babysitting. So it was my first night babysitting for this one family, things went well changed some diapers, put the baby to sleep and that was about it.

  Parents come home and are very drunk. They asked me to stay for a little while after they got back which was weird. Then they offered me, a 16 year old at the time, a drink. Feeling a little pressured I took it and just sipped on it.

  Then the mom got really close to me, and says I probably shouldn't be driving home after having a drink. Once again feeling a little pressured I was thinking about [accepting]. So I asked if I'd just be sleeping on the couch.

  I'll never [forget] her next words to me, she says "Oh no honey. You'll be going to bed with us."

  I noped out of there so fast! I think I ran to my car but it was kind of just a panicked blur. Left my purse there and everything.
• (#14) If The Other Employees Are Trying To Warn You, Maybe You Should Listen

  From Redditor /u/arcsine: 

  I was unemployed for a couple months, and started applying for pretty much any job I could do. This one was a basic small-biz IT support contractor. The employee the interviewer introduced to me mouthed "run" when he turned his back.
• (#5) If Your Employers Lie To You Once, They'll Do It Again

  From Redditor /u/greyhound1211:

  Found out that the educational assistance they touted in their advertisement applied only to full time employees and that they both defined full time as no fewer than 40 hours and kept anyone who would apply for that assistance from ever being qualified for it. None of this was advertised and the people I interviewed with assured me, a college student, that working 21 hours a week would get me the benefits. Too bad I read my contract before signing it and called them out. Don't f*cking lie to your employees, especially during an interview on something that can be easily and swiftly [disproved]. If you're willing to lie to me about this, what else are you willing to lie to me about?
• (#6) If You Wouldn't Play The Game They Want You To Make, Don't Make The Game

  From Redditor /u/LibertyJorj: 

  I was interviewing for a contract position at a very small game development company, and they told me they were looking for someone to help finish up an existing project.

  Literally, the game looked like it was made in MS Paint. As if they had just hired some random guy off the street and asked them to make some art for them. Granted it's a mobile game and sold for the standard 0.99, so maybe that's not the worst, but the game itself doesn't look engaging at all either. But I figure, worst comes to worst I could make some money on the side with some low-effort work.

  Then they told me that my pay would be a percentage of the sales. Noped right out of that one.
