The top one deserves to be highlighted as well.

What if you worked 20 years for the same employer before that?

[–] [email protected] 37 points 6 months ago (1 children)

The bottom part too, considering all this stupid shit is for a part-time position.

I just realized how much worse it actually is. A part-time job that requires you to sign a Non-Compete Agreement.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

OMG you're right - the fact that this is a lot of for a part time job wasn't lost on me, but a NON-COMPETE for a part-time job?? Like WTF else are you supposed to do?

Delusional??

I mean they are using astrology as a means to assess potential candidates. This doesn't strike me as the decision of someone who is grounded in reality.

My sister ran into that - got let go from her first job, which she had worked at for 10 years. She just provides references from that job, and no one brought it up.

Just give them the number of 3 friends (who are in on it ofc.)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Yeah I’ve been references for many friends. Usually they don’t call and if they do it’s chill.
