Two contrasting phone interviews. I'm still laughing.

I work for a fully remote company in the healthcare industry No HQ, never has been and never will be. Interviewing for a brand new position and spoke with two candidates this morning.

One volunteered the info that she refuses to get vaxxed but wants to continue working in healthcare where she doesn't have to wear a mask. Um, okay.

Second woman answered my "what does integrity mean to you?" question by blurting out "the Republican party sure doesn't have any."

She was so embarrassed and apologized for going there. I can't stop laughing.
