insert foot in mouth

i promise, promise, promise i'll put some pics of sarita's amazingly beautiful wedding up soon, but i have a short work story that is just begging to be shared.

today was monday which equals super busy. it is just about lunch time and i let a guy into my office. i can tell he's foreign, but not sure where he's from. i ask him what shift he's looking for and all that and start to offer him a job at one of our biggest companies: a ham packaging plant. i'm like, they have a lot of positions open: wrapping, slicing, curing, boning, packaging, boxing...you name it.

he looks at me with this horrified look on his face and says: did you say ham? ham as in pork?

i'm like, yes...??

he goes: i refuse this job. i am a muslim.

and walks out of my office.

whoops.
