"Every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence"

Gaetz's Job Application Rejected by Hooters

POMPANO BEACH (The Borowitz Report)—In the latest setback for the former lawmaker, on Friday Matt Gaetz’s application to be an assistant manager at a south Florida Hooters was flatly rejected.

“As the flagship Hooters of Pompano Beach, we take the responsibility of vetting applicants very seriously,” manager Harland Dorrinson said. “We strongly felt that Matt Gaetz would do irreparable harm to the Hooters brand.”

“To be clear, we are not singling out Matt,” the Hooters manager added. “We would have had the same reaction to Pete Hegseth.”

Gaetz also dreamed too big. A server, maybe, but assistant manager would have started him at a level that satisfied the Peter Principle.

He can still be an insufferable drag on society, however, as Florida's governor. For that position, incompetence is required; ethical bankruptcy, desirable. *See Lara Trump for job application.

I don't think he'd want to work at Hooter's. The waitresses are grown women, so they're too old for him.
