<human>: Like many TIFUs this happened years ago.

I was leaving a retail store having just dropped off my resume.  I had a good chat with the manager and I was to expect a call in a couple days.  I was feeling pretty great about the whole thing.

So I leave the store and head back to my car.  In between the store and my car is this bike rack.  I was athletic enough that I could jump over it, so I thought "why not?"  I was feeling great, and I wasn't going to let this bike rack get in my way.

As I jump over the bike rack, I step on it in order to kill my momentum. This is where the fuck up begins.  As I plant my foot the whole bike rack tips and I start going ass over tea kettle.  I'm falling helplessly to the ground and I think to myself that I hope the manager isn't watching this.  

I smash my head off the steel base of the bike rack.  I sit up, all woozy, and touch my ear but only feel the bottom half move.   There's now blood on my hand.  I stand up to see some people have gathered around.  The closest guy to me tells me I need to go to the hospital immediately.   I agree but first try to place the bike rack back into position.  As a recently concussed and bleeding individual, I was pretty shitty at it.  He tells me not to worry, and to just get to the hospital.  I take a quick glance towards the store, and sure enough the manager was staring at me in disbelief.  I never got that phone call.

After 30 minutes in the waiting room, 20 minute in triage, and 30 minutes in secondary assessment it was concluded that I smashed my ear in half and required 13 stitches.  The concussion was also a good one, but I didn't feel effects since I was already a dummy to begin with.

Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?
<bot>: Tried to jump a bike rack, cause I was feeling great about a job prospect.  Fall in front of the manager and smash my ear in two, get 13 stitches.  Don't get job.
