The complete and total hypocrisy that is art museums in Florence (and most of Italy) will never cease to be ridiculous.

They literally have dress codes that women can’t wear shorts or short sleeve shirts - despite being a popular summer destinations - because it would be indecent and informal, meanwhile almost every painting is a voyeuristic image of naked women for the appreciation of the male gaze.

Message is clear: women can’t show skin for their own physical comfort without being sinful, but men can choose to reveal women’s flesh for their own pleasure and monetary gain and it is called art.

I did 3 job interviews for this shop assistant position. Yes, that is correct, 3 job interviews - one with the local manager, one with a manager from another store and then lastly back to manager no.1 for the final one. I needed a shitload of documents too. This whole fun ride took 2 weeks… and the result?

They didn’t even have the decency to call me and tell me I wasn’t “the right candidate” or whatever. Manners maketh man, right?
