Panel 1 (a handwritten letter):
DEAR GOVERNMENT,
I AM A VICTIM OF SEXISM! I INTERVIEWED FOR A JOB TRADITIONALLY HELD BY WOMEN, AND WAS CLEARLY NEVER IN THE RUNNING DESPITE MY POSITIVE, CAN-DO ATTITUDE [text cut off at panel edge]
Panel 2 (labeled "EARLIER..." — a flashback of the job interview):
Interviewer (a woman with blonde hair, partly off-panel): WE JUST DON'T FEEL—
Applicant (a man with red/flame-like hair, pointing at a small child seated between them): I COULD NANNY THE S**T OUT OF THIS F***ER!
Votey:
The red-haired man, gesturing toward a coffin/casket with a mourner standing nearby, says: THIS S**T WOULD BE F**KING AWESOME FOR YOUR DEPARTED F**KING LOVED ONES

A two-panel comic. Panel one shows a handwritten complaint letter reading: "Dear Government, I am a victim of sexism! I interviewed for a job traditionally held by women, and was clearly never in the running despite my positive, can-do attitude..." Panel two, labeled "Earlier...," flashes back to the interview: a blonde woman interviewer begins, "We just don't feel—" but a red-haired man cuts her off, pointing at a small child seated between them and shouting, "I could nanny the s**t out of this f***er!" The joke is that his aggressive, profane enthusiasm—not his gender—is obviously why he didn't get the nannying job. Votey (bonus panel): the same red-haired man, gesturing at a coffin while a mourner looks on, declares, "This s**t would be f**king awesome for your departed f**king loved ones," showing he pitches every job with the same inappropriate intensity.
