I'm not as dumb as this sounds, I just get tired sometimes

I applied for a job at Trader Joe's as the sign artist. It was perfect for me. I would get paid to practice for my personal artwork.I thought I had it, but never even got a call. I couldn't believe it.I already pictured myself in the shirt, scribbling with full benefits. When I was going over what images I gave to them I realized that I hadn't removed this drawing. I added it on purpose thinking that it's a good drawing, and not thinking that the themed, family grocery store probably wouldn't be into frontal nudity or urination. I decided on deleting it from my submission, but simply forgot. I laugh at myself shamefully whenever I picture the "Captain" (the name Trader Joe's uses instead of manager) looking through my submissions, and stopping at that one. I want to know how long he looked at it, and I also want to know what his face looked like, and what he said, if anything, out loud to himself.
I called them,and asked about the job.They informed me that the position was filled.

Hindsight is...

Sketch-"What are you laughing at?"
