I have had a theory that the personality tests are just to have an excuse to discriminate with plausible deniability.

yep when I applied to work at target a few years ago, there should have been absolutely no reason for them to not consider me but I took that thiny veiled screening test and wow I suddenly don't get a response.

fuck corpos man

That explains a LOT.

Not really, in this case the more literally you read the question the better. It asks what responsibility you acquire when you have a job not why you got the job.

Not that I necessarily think they're trying to discriminate against people with autism giving blood, but there's one of these on the blood donation intake questionnaire.

Intake Questionnaire: In the last year, have you used any illegal drugs via needle injection?

Me: No.

IQ: In the last year, have you had sex with anyone who uses illegal drugs via needle injection?

Me (married): Well, it's not as if I can keep an eye on my wife 24/7... you know what, I'm just going to mark it No.

IQ: In the last year, have you had sex for money?

Me: No.

IQ: In the last year, have you had sex with anyone who has had sex for money?

Me: I'M TELLING YOU, I CAN'T KEEP AN EYE ON HER AT ALL TIMES, SO FUNDAMENTALLY I CANNOT GIVE A CERTAIN ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION!

Or if they had profit sharing, that actually used to be a thing.

Yeah, a questioaire like his is definitely a red flag

I once applied for a pretty "standard" job. In return, i was asked to complete a survey which was a requirement. This survey consisted of some questions about "what would you do in this scenario if you would work here" (some of them were video-based ones). Since i have quite enough experience working in retail - i answered those questions kinda realistically even tho i thought that in perfect world the actual answer should be different (so called by you @roude@lemmynsfw.com - "corpo-appropriate"). I finished the survey and i got a email with the results...

... it was something like "Not bad! There is a potential to improve" in a kinda mean way

Sure but we are responsible for our own health and that of our family also, so the main objective for many is to obtain “stable employment” the more invisible, the better.

Work to live. Not live to work.

Well damn that's a good point. But what a weird ass question.

My primary responsibility is to take care of me and my family by earning enough money to pay my bills.

Yes Mr. Bossman, I would love to work at your company. I have aspired to be a since I was a small child. I would do anything to help out the company. My only desire is to help the business.

If you can't pay your own bills, then you can't eat enough to be able to work. So no
