I just got this text message from my sister. My fellow Americans, with all due respect, are you out of your goddamn minds?

Sister: Things are going well! I did a
"one way" virtual interview last
week with *** for a job l really want. And I have an actually virtual
interview with a live person in HR
at a local company in 2 days.

I want *** to call me for an in person interview though. Because I want that job more. Seems more fun...

The other company would pay
more but be more boring lol.

Me: What the hell is a "one-way" virtual interview?

Sister: lol they send you question
prompts and you record yourself
saying responses on video:)

Me: That's a thing?? What the actual
fuck that's so rude!
