Keeping up appearances

By Carebeareatu - 13/03/2020 15:00

Today, my friends gave me a complete makeover, which included clothes from their wardrobe, to prepare me for an upcoming job interview. I was then declined the position, because apparently, I "looked too wealthy" to need the job. FML

No employer would ever say that.

Maybe the interview was for a low-end retail job e.g., a clothing store whose items that OP's daily-wear would completely out-class and thus remind customers of just how lousy the store's products are. And/or perhaps she comes across as being over-qualified as well.

That's a thing now? I see. Just don't appear to be too rich for the job.

Well, some will not hire you if your too qualified. It’s a thing.
