Of course, when I arrived for work, I saw that everyone in the kitchen was black or hispanic. Good times.*

*It actually turned out to be because they were all cool and we got to hate the sales reps together.

My Korvette's job required a 100 question form be filled out. I was a HS senior, or maybe just graduated. I was there at the same time as another interviewee who was a serious doper from my HS AND quite obviously so.
One question:
"Have you ever smoked marijuana?"
I'm thinking if I answer no it would be quite clear that I was lying. The next question was "Do you still do it today?" So I said yes to the first and no to the second.
Stoner guy told me later he said no to both.
I got a job stocking the sock department. He was appointed to the store security team, which paid lots more. Of course I wouldn't have wanted to be security. I'm sure they have of quota of people they had to bust. Still, to have been unfairly thrown into socks based upon telling the truth did teach a lesson.
