Redditor u/Red_Beard47 shared their experience when they went in for what would become the worst job interview of their life.

This comment stood out to us when we were putting together this three-part seriesof the worst job interviews people ever had. So in a way, this is an unofficial part IV. So many comments on that thread deserved to be their own post.

Commenters shared their reactions to the story and even shared their own stories.

"Good idea you walked out of the interview. It would've been really depressing to work in a store where the owner yells at you every day," responded Oro-Lavanda.

"I've done it. It was f*-king demoralizing. It just breaks you down," responded Mrminecrafthimself.

"I was an admin assistant at a plumbing service company right out of college and the owner was a nutcase," they continued. "Our hours were 7-5, but he came in when he pleased (usually 10 AM). Then 2 hours later he'd go to lunch with his friends (fellow service guys and some carpenters/contractors from the area) and he'd return after 3 or 4 hours. At 5 he'd say 'shewwww I'm tired after all this work' and head home."

"It was actually preferable when he was gone because when he was in the office, he'd throw tantrums and shout about this employee's work or that employee's attitude or this customer not being happy with their work."

"Nothing could be done right. You'd do your job, and he'd have you re-do it while he told you exactly what to do. He couldn't relinquish control."
