'My sister REEKS and honestly makes me gag sometimes': Woman tells new-grad sister she's not getting jobs because of her bad hygiene, not sexism

There are a few things that are inevitable in life. We're all going to leave this Earth one day at least in spirit and we're all gonna have to find a job at one point or another. Unless you're one of those lucky people who found the infinite money glitch. But if you're not, then odds are you're gonna have to lace up your boots and send in a few resumes.

Looking for a job can be one of the most soul-sucking things you have to go through as an adult. You're constantly setting yourself up for rejection. It's incredibly draining, especially in the era of online applications, where most apps you send through fall into an abyss, never to be seen or heard from again. It can make you feel like you're useless and nobody likes you, even though you logically know that most recruiters only look at resumes for less than 15 seconds. Sometimes it takes hundreds of applications to get a response, but all it takes is one good lead.

AITA For telling my sister that her lack of personal hygiene is the real reason no job will hire her and not sexism?

Then, if you're lucky, you go through the interview process, which is a whole other bag of worms. Selling yourself is a skill unto itself, and if you haven't honed it, interviews can be brutal. And then you still might not ever hear from them again.
