'I just burst out laughing': Interviewee walks out of a laughably terrible job interview after getting 'offered' $16/hour, no travel compensation, and zero hours

This interview quickly went south when a prospective employee learned the true meaning of their job's description, laughing abruptly in the face of their interviewer before storming out. I guess it's back to the grindstone for this guy's job search…

What's the worst thing you've ever endured for a job? 

We're all here for the money, so there's a spectrum of willingness to do what it takes to cash in on that paycheck every two weeks. For many of us, we just let the what-in-tarnation moments on the job roll off our backs, saying, 'That's just a part of the job' until we're desensitized to whatever weirdness comes along with our job title. But when you can already spot the billowing red flags of a job position before even stepping foot into the business, you should follow your gut instinct and run away as fast as you can. 

Keep scrolling to read how this employee dodged a bullet by immediately denying the worst job offer ever as he scoffed at shared hotel rooms, $16/hour, uncertain hours, and a pathetic (or even, nonexistent) travel compensation program.
