I have a master's degree in literature and I've been teaching college English for two years. I'm respected by my colleagues and I think before I speak, always. Here's a bit of a summary from my Facebook recap:
Applied for a "professional assistant" job. Woman was extremely condescending without provocation on the phone, telling me I had no job experience, no proven social skills (the irony). Met her for an "interview" today (she was 30+ minutes late, told me I was unprofessional for not calling her when I arrived at the cafe, even though she told me an exact time to be there), went back to her office, she told me what she wanted (to acquire thousands of emails for a "viral video project," to start a blog and find people to write for it for free, although she had absolutely no content in mind when I asked her what her platform was).
The tenth (or so) time she said that upstate people "don't like to work/are unprofessional/don't understand the concept of salary/are unworldly/are inexperienced" (by the way, she asked "Do your parents work?" which might be the most offensive thing anyone has ever asked in a job interview), I told her that was extremely condescending and got up to leave. She said some ridiculous stuff and told me to go. Then she said, "You're stupid," and closed the door. Here's her "viral video project":

She described it to me as "potentially award-winning."
