Like  felons in a community shower with limited soap, applicants nowadays are  bending over trying to prostitute themselves out, but only a lucky few  get some action.  Companies are such fucking assholes now since  unemployment is high and they can pick and choose who they want to hire.   They seriously treat you throughout the entire hiring process like  they are doing you a favor by speaking with you.  I had a phone  interview with a large company in Newport Beach where I had exactly the  experience they were looking for and I got a phone interview because I  knew an insider.  
At  first, HR treated me extremely well and was very courteous when setting  up my phone interview because they were interested in me.  The phone  interview with the hiring manager went very well and he told me at the  end of the call that they liked me and wanted me to come in to meet  them.  I felt wanted like a hundred pound blond with D-tits at that  point. Within days, HR starting treating me like we met at a rave, high  on E, and they were coming down and they weren’t sure whom they’ve met.   They asked me which days I was available to come in, to which I  promptly responded.  For the next month they occasionally emailed:  “maybe this would be a good day or this one.” Of course I followed up  each and every time.  
After four weeks I emailed and called the HR lady  to get a status update and the bitch didn’t even have the decency to  return my calls.  I have experienced this crap with other employers  also.  The real anal rape (with no vaseline) I received the next month  was a generic email that said: “thanks, but we found someone else.”  Are  you fucking kidding me? They tell me they like me and we’re scheduling  follow-up interviews and you just slam the door in my face like I gained  50 pounds and developed a loose pussy? DAMN!
