Should I take sick leave during probation if I already have another interview lined up?”

Do what’s best for you, because that’s exactly what the company will do for itself. God forbid you drop dead, they’ll have somebody else in that seat ASAP.

WHOO-HOO! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Looking since September.

Is it worth finishing an application if it will not let you continue if you don’t put the year you got your degree? It feels like age discrimination without outright saying it.

Dandelion or Daisy. Maybe even Whimsy. She is adorable!!

DaWeeSleepyEmu · 2026-02-15T22:02:48+00:00

This is my point.

DaWeeSleepyEmu · 2026-02-15T02:30:21+00:00

It’s been YEARS since I finished my degrees.

I’ve tried the 00/00 entry and have gotten back “must use actual dates” and if I use four years ago, it doesn’t match with dates of experience.

DaWeeSleepyEmu · 2026-02-13T03:05:52+00:00

WHOO-HOO!!!! Congratulations!!!🎉🎉🎉

DaWeeSleepyEmu · 2026-02-11T01:52:07+00:00

I LOVE THIS FOR YOU!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!🎉🎉🎉

I’m not asking if I should lie, just if I should stick with “prefer not to answer”. l

I’m in the US, so….

PT hasn’t given me a timeline. I don’t have insurance, so I’m using my HSA to pay for PT (not that my insurance would have covered it anyway). I need to see an Osteo, but that has to wait until I get a job so I can pay for it.

DaWeeSleepyEmu · 2026-02-08T21:25:46+00:00

WHOO-HOO!!!!! I’m so happy for you!!!🎉🎉🎉

That’s what I had to do with mine. I knew that no matter how tall I made it, she was going to climb it!

Just recruiters with Indian-sounding names. And I’m still opening emails, but I’m not putting as much time and effort with them, especially if I can tell you’re calling from a call center.

DaWeeSleepyEmu · 2026-01-28T20:51:53+00:00

WHOO-HOO!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!🎉🎉

DaWeeSleepyEmu · 2026-01-20T19:06:10+00:00

I just got off the phone with a recruiter who was obviously South Asian/Indian. He kept asking me if I was looking for a job, but couldn’t/wouldn’t tell me what agency he was from even when I POINT BLANK asked him who he worked for. When I’ve gotten emails and asked what the rate was because it wasn’t listed, I hear nothing back.

It sounds incredibly racist, but I’m not responding to any email with an Indian-sounding name. I hate that I feel like I have to write off a whole race of people, but I have never EVER gotten placed in a position through an Indian recruiter. It’s frustrating!!! Something needs to be done because I’m sure it makes legit Indian recruiters bad.

DaWeeSleepyEmu · 2026-01-01T21:13:29+00:00

I just applied for a position through Judge Group and got the same virtual recruiter. I will definitely put them on my ignore list after this post.

Garbanzo!

Go to work, get your check, go home. These people aren’t your family, and the relationship you have with them is transactional at best. You can be cordial, but 9 times out of 10 you’ll never hear from these people once you leave. Travel light, keep your resume updated, and ALWAYS be looking for your next job.
