OP went for a job interview at a warehouse at 1:30. Even though OP arrived early, the interview started very late, 1 hour and 15 minutes late! After being offered the job, OP said no because starting late was disrespectful and showed the company didn’t manage time well. OP left, wishing them luck. Interestingly, the company mistakenly said OP didn’t come to the interview and withdrew the application.
