And it was... not fun. At all.
I don't know how or why, but I somehow got a job with the WWE dealing with behind the scenes stuff. Over the course of a few weeks, I actually had a pretty decent working relationship with Stephanie McMahon and HHH. Vince didn't seem to be there all but a few minutes, so that's why I'm leaving him out.
Anyway, whilst dealing with backstage... dealings, there was a new wrestler walking around backstage, but he wasn't supposed to be on TV or anything, so I'm assuming he was a new guy that they were just showing around. So, I'm walking around with HHH and I see the back of this male wrestler (who was in a suit, by the way, given that he wasn't due to wrestle) and he has hair that really resembles Stephanie's. So, I tell HHH, not even thinking about it "hey, that kind of looks like your wife" and I point to the guy. Dude turns around and is one of the most vile looking guys I have ever seen; he looks like an aardvark on a human's body. Now, given that I couldn't see the guy's face and was obviously, to me, referring to his hair, I didn't realize that the statement would offend HHH, and BOY did it. I tried to explain to him that I was referring to his hair, but he was having none of it. A couple days later, he calls me into his office and Stephanie, Vince and that wrestler are sitting down. HHH, like a principal, tells me to repeat to Stephanie what I had told him in regards to the wrestler's appearance. So, I repeat it to her, but make sure that she knows I was talking about his hair. Long story short, I got fired and was banned from ever returning to WWE Headquarters.
So... yeah. That's what my job experience with the WWE was like.
