3. And I bet that applicant was hired only because he had previous experience
working at another Bob's Big Boy, preferably in the same part of California. Because, my God, the employers don't have to hire someone without previous Big Bob's experience. They could probably afford to sift through their 700 applications to weed out everyone who had never worked at a Big Boy before--possibly everybody who had never worked at a Big Boy in California--possibly everybody who had never worked at a Big Boy in that PART of California.

That's how selective it is now. If there weren't discrimination laws against it, employers could now sift through all their applications and resumes and choose not only the ideal candidate, but also the ideal candidate who also has brown hair, green eyes, and a little mole on the left cheek, who likes classical music (the Romantic period) and drives a Honda--if that's who they wanted to hire.
