A pizza restaurant has been slammed for installing a giant sign encouraging "non-stupid people" to apply for its job vacancies. Santino's Pizzeria, Columbus, in Ohio, America, has been forced to defend its sign after residents took offence to it, claiming it's a dig at those who recently quit the pizza joint.
Jayden Dunigan, whose family owns the restaurant, claims it was made in jest and relates to their annoyance at spending time and money training new employees only for them not to show up for work. Jayden told WSYN: "A lot of the people we’ve hired just don’t want to work. There is no work ethic behind them, so that’s the meaning behind the 'non-stupid'."
