Taylor Byrnes, a resident of Manitoba, Canada, recently had an interview that did not go at all as she had envisioned in spite of her impeccable attitude. The young woman had an interview with Skip The Dishes, a home delivery startup company.
She first sent a classic application, and then had a telephone interview. Taylor felt that the interview went very well. A meeting was subsequently scheduled. It was at this point that Taylor asked an unfortunate question that suddenly compromised her candidacy. Whilst her first phone interview had gone perfectly, the pretty common question that Taylor Byrnes asked unfortunately caused her to lose out on the job. On social networks, thousands of Internet users have jumped to Taylor's defence. Taylor had asked
If I do end up filling this position, how much do you think I'll be getting paid an hour? Benefits will also be included, right? Sorry, I just thought I should ask now.
Twitter then sided with Taylor, with one user ironically saying:
We're really looking for more of a one-sided relationship where you care about us and we don't care if you starve and die.
