I agree. Given the fact that she mentioned multiple times trying to sell a novel and a tv pilot, I doubt that this was an earnest attempt to get a job, but rather an earnest attempt to get fodder for an overly-complicated article about being rejected from a menial job at the expense of somebody else (The Container Store).
For all we know, they rejected her to give somebody who didn't have a Harvard degree a chance to earn some income.
- DavidAdams 12y agoI don't think it was about the article. It was an attempt to get a job with health insurance because she messed up her health insurance situation after she lost her previous job.
- sanderjd 12y agoIt may be technically true that "she messed up her health insurance", but note how easy it was to do that while believing she was doing the right thing. Using some programming parlance, the system did a terrible job of "making invalid states unrepresentable".
