reblog the Don Draper of getting a job he’s unqualified for and you’ll have 10 years of getting jobs you’re unqualified for

YES

No but my dad actually did this at McDonalds in the 70s!

So here’s a true story: my father, sometime in the 70s was looking for his first job. He went to the local McDonalds and told the staff, [manager’s name] said I was supposed to start today. They took his word for it and started training him and by the time the manager saw him and asked who he was, people just said “oh that’s the new guy.”

Somehow this actually worked. My dad worked there for a couple of years as a cook. He even won an award plaque which he had on the wall until the day he died.

Me, walking into FBI Headquarters:

“Name’s Burt Macklin, I work here now.”

{Time Traveling!Flurry to Sunset} “Would…y-your name happen to be Sunset Shimmer?” the teen asked. With a blank flank and hidden wings she appeared to be a unicorn freakishly taller than Celestia. But her timid disposition made her non-threatening. She shrunk back in the cafe where she and Sunset stood in Canterlot and now she wondered if in this Equestria and timeline did Sunset Shimmer never leave? She knew her appearance and story from history books. But that was all.

Sunset looked up from her coffee at this new face, only to have to crane her hear upwards to get a good like at her. She was tall. Like… taller then her own mother and aunt. But… who was she.

When she heard her name, she immediately felt herself tense. Her hooves seemed to curl, but then she remembered that she didn’t have fingers. Her eyes narrowed at the tall unicorn as she said, “Yeah… How do you know who I am?”
