Pre-requisites for certain jobs...

Noticed every employee in Starbucks is a 'weirdo'?
Wonder what their criteria for application must be:
1) Must have a tattoo in a visible area - Arm, neck, face etc. The more obscure the better. Chinese preferred. Doesn't matter if it translates to 'I am a jackass' as long as it's cool looking
2) Piercing is a must - a) Guys - Any visible area - Nose, ears, eye brow, lower lip b) Gals - Nose, eye brow, lower lip, chin, Ear (multiple piercing required)
3) Hair must be done outlandishly - A minimum of two colors preferred - Recommended combos - (purple and black), (red and black) etc. Oh and guys - hair has to be long, Gals - Short or bald.
4) Built - Guys - Thin as a wire, Gals - doesn't matter

I tried the Employee at the Indian store although i am not able to portray the perfect worker here:
1) Must be short, well built
2) Be a 'man' of few words
3) Speak spanish
4) Wear a cap
5) Have a stern look on the face with bloodshot eyes.
6) Have a mean looking tattoo

Coming soon: Employee for the corporate world

No way I never said that. My prerequisites go like this
1) Don't expect me to laugh at terrible PJs.
2) Do nothing.
3) Repeat step 1 & 2.

You have exaggerated the post.. I have been to many starbucks and I have found perfectly normal people most of the times, I dont think all of them are weirdos some of them may be but definitely not all...
