You find a job, but in your excitement you don't notice exactly what sort of job you've signed up for. You are now paid to shell peanuts, but 2 weeks into your employment you unexpectedly develop a peanut allergy. Not knowing that this allergy developed overnight, you feel terribly ill when you wake up the next morning because there's peanut residue and stuff on some of your clothes. Thus, you show up late to work, have a severe reaction there, and are hospitalized, almost dying during your stay there. Your employer turns out to be super crappy and fires you for not showing up the next day, and gives a bad review of you if you try to use them on an application stating that you have "poor attendance and are unreliable."
I wish I could find out what's at the end of the rainbow.
