One of them being Shyp who was my #1 option and I REALLY felt like I could come into the operation and dominate. Then I got this email:
Hi Anthony
Thanks for coming in to speak with us in person and especially for driving so far. We have decided not to further pursue the interview process. I wish you success in finding the right fit, which I'm sure you will.
Best

The moment I read this I was pissed. I may or may not have screamed in my car to myself. I let it soak in. I went to eat to cool down. I was still pissed. I wanted to go watch Ted 2 and just have a movie experience, laugh and be by myself. I ended up not doing that and eating chicken wings with my friend while watching NBA Summer League games.
I have yet to respond but will use it as a test subject. I'll do something crazy and see if it works. Otherwise forget em. If they aren't smart enough to solve simple problems that were very apparent in the operations, than they probably aren't smart enough to hire me.
I also got another rejection from NatureBox saying I did not have enough analytic experience. I guess I should have lied and said my Excel skills are at the "mastery" level. Maybe I would have gotten the job.
I went to the Rosa Garden in San Jose today to hang out with my cousin who is a Sister aka a real world changing Nun.
Then I got a call from a startup in Colorado with some operations and logistics opportunities who MIGHT fly me out to become the VP of Operations and Supply Chain / Logistics and probably a co-founder of the next Uber for Uber. A true industry disrupted. Kidding! About the title but not about the job.
How can I change the world? How can I entice better conversations?
