Recommended Posts

okk, so i had an interview at macdonalds today.

they can't hire me

not cuz i'm not qualified

not cuz i do'nt have anough experience

not cuz i don't have a good enough availability

it's cuz they say NO FACIAL HAIR!

you're eliminating at least one entire religion!!

so you can't work for macdonalds if you're Sikh...no pun intended, but that makes me sick...

anyways, is there anything i can do about this.... no one wants someone who doesn't have experience.... and macdonalds was the only one that really gave me a chance with an interview...any ideas on what i should do?

thank youuu

veerji, i've tried for the past 3 summers

everyone wants freaking experience...so newbies like me have no chance..and i've tried anyways, and still..

i have the skills...it just seems that everywhere i go, the appearance turns everyone away....

but mcdonalds is the first one that is actually saying that to my face...

i mean...look, i've won public speaking competitions, i've volunteered with different organizations, i'm hard-working, i learn quickly, my biggest weakness is the fact my handwriting looks worse than the stuff that comes out of narsingha's mouth/keyboard....

i'm qualified, minus the experience

the other main problem is that my only reference is my mom, cuz i worked in our family business....but they say they can't call family members for references.....

i'm kinda in a bind..cuz there's a bunch of samagams i wanna go to this summer, and i need money to get there!! :cry:

anyways...is there anything i can do

maaaan dont work at macdonalds its skanky there

and i am not saying they are right yeh......but i can see why they see no facial hair......lol once i was walking past the back window of a dominos pizza and 2 kesadhari singhns were doing the dough!!! i was well happy and as were they so we waved lol.....and i SWEAR a few dhari hairs must have falled in someones pizza dough lol

get a job where htey will pay u alot more money and u specialise in, like a mobile fone shop, or a hifi/tv shop (ill try there soon) or if u are good w/ computers then computer shop, my mate gets 50 quid for a few hours working in a fone shop n they tell him all the "secrets".

who cares if maccies aint employing sikhs - u want the free burgers? :LOL:

Hey jsb ji,

U get lot of reply to your question. well i wanna say somthing too if u don't mind. i know u can't get that job even if u try your best. and its all cuz of hair. Just for the next time, don't think of getting job at any american restaurant... or any other place which is related with your hair. well, sikh have died for thir hairs. and your problem is not that big. don't worry buddy... get some other job. Rab Rakha.

first of all, i hope i do this in chronological order

sukhsingh, they do indeed pay for me to go, but once in a while, i think it'd feel good to pay it on my own.. just for personal satisfaction..

steel bangle: GO RIGHT AHEAD! I'LL SEND YOU MY MAILING ADDRESS IF YOU WANNA BE IN CHARGE AHAHAHAHA :LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL:

punjaban souljah and the rest: thanks for your encouragement...it's needed hehe...

next stop...Chapters!! (for you americans/UKers, that's a bookstore!)

first of all

i gotta say a SINGH is TOO GOOD to work in da Mac...

well thats kinda wierd that u didn't get da job

when there WAS two here up in sweden working in da Mac who r keshdhari or one of them cut his hair :oops:

for this what I'm gonna suggest needs patience

first of all

u call for a poffice and ask if they can except work experience noobs

and if they say yes

u dont need to menation the BHaag/Patka part..

they'll have to notice it when u see them

and tell them u wanna work for them for FREE :oops:

jus as work experiences

two weeks or so

then u wuit

and

a month or so l8r

u ask them what they thought of u n stuff

n if u worked well they'll say u worked well n stuff

and then u ask them if they got summer job 4 u

dats how i got work in Ericsson :oops: during da summer

but da thing is in sweden

in yr 7, 8 and 9

we get to weeks off

for work experience

we lok for jobs call companies n stuf

but u can do i privatly

i did it via school

but i called Ericsson myself

and they liked me so i got a job

but if u call thme privatly n work for free for a while in ANY OFFICE

and they like ur behaviour n stuff

they gonna hire u

dats my secret ;)

Fateh Ji,

Phaji, get a job in telesales, believe anyone can get a job in that field, I'm sure theres some windows/kitchen company in your area... As you have said you have won speaking competitions, you'll be pretty good at the job...
