Re: Has anti-greek sentiment hurt you?

This makes me so pissed
The only time that I experienced first hand anti-Greek sentiment was when I was interviewing for a long term temp assignment with an airline (customer service rep) about 4 years ago. This required a security interview with an overseas police officer. I told her that I am member of sorority and she thought that is was a cult. I told that it was a friendship organization and tried to explain to her what a sorority is as calmly as possibly. I didn't get the job (put on stand-by or waiting list). I didn't really want the job anyway! Other than that, I received nothing but curiosity and positive feedback!
