Should I reapply to a ambulance Company?

So I applied to this Ambulance company about like a month ago. Long story short I have 3 years experience working as an EMT with LAPD,LASD, LAFD, LA-CoFD, and with private Ambulance companies. I'm also black. So when I go apply I get nothing,but attitude from the employees. I said hello and they just walked passed me like I wasn't even there. So I was alright that kind of mad me bad, but I didn't let it show. I finish the application and when I turned it in I ask the lady at the first desk would they need any license or anything like that to make a copy of cause I had every already in hand. She said no, I go outside and the other employees are standing by my car. I said hey again I didn't get a response. As I try to back out and turn my car one of the employees stands in front of my car while I'm trying to turn backing up so I have to be super careful not to hit him. At the same time a guy that looks to be the manager comes out and starts looking at me. At this point you can tell I'm bad cause I'm like why are you guys acting like this y'all don't even know me. I didn't get a call from them or anything I call them 6 times leaving my number for the hiring manger t contact me. Two days ago I had to call the ambulance for my girlfriend. And the EMT who weee bring rude to me was one of the responding EMTs. I called back this morning and the lady was like we just did hiring two weeks ago and I'm like WTF no one called me.

    You seem to think you're entitled to a job. You're not.

    I strongly suggest you work on your own attitude. You clearly rub folks the wrong way. You may not be aware that you do this.

    Okay, you have had (according to you) at least 5 jobs in the past 3 years, that is a sign of being unstable in the work place

    I was not aware that the LAPD just had EMT's. I thought the fire department handled those calls and since you are not certified, Sorry I just do not believe you were a non certified LAPD EMT. Then you move on the the LACSD, again they do not have civilian EMT's either, they use the fire department for those services, then you said you went to work for the LAFD, and then the LACSD-I find it strange that you would leave the exact same job.

    Sorry I do not believe this part of the story

    Then you have written checks with money you do not have in the bank.

    If I was an employer and saw that an EMT worked at least 5 jobs in 3 years, I would hesitate too in hiring you, to me that means you have been dismissed from them.

    I think you are trying to use race as a means for a lawsuit, not going to happen

    You might be better off contacting the EEOC and filing a complaint for race based hiring practices. That is assuming none of those EMTs you saw were black.
