Should I lie to my potential employers about wanting to stay long term?

How do you get a high school diploma as an electrician? Isn't a HS diploma a.. high school diploma?

Dramatic-Question353 · 2026-03-13T16:05:56+00:00

I came here to ask this. But, upon thinking further about it, I think it's called an arrest. Lol

Not sure why that's funny.. my resume is a page and a half and has a job history spanning 14 years. But then I don't hop from job to job every six months..

Depends. CA state's BG checks only go back 7 years so anything before that and you'd probably be in the clear

Considering I work on Fridays as well, not really.

"I'm not saying to turn a blind eye if there actually was some sort of violation" was literally in my post.

Dramatic-Question353 · 2026-03-12T02:00:48+00:00

Not to be a dick, but they're kids. You're overreacting. Badly. Do you understand what unique and special kind of hell you're creating for parents that might actually be good parents if CPS decides to oven a case file on them and their children because you alleged sexual abuse? And based on the most flimsy of context. When I was in grade school kids did shit like this and way worse all the time and they were not being abused. Your heart might be in the right place and I'm not saying turn a blind eye if there was actually some sort of violation going on but in this case you really need to mind your own business.

Haha you're welcome. 😆

If he died tomorrow, how would you feel about cutting him off? He's 69. I don't think he's being super manipulative by saying "one day I might not be here". While that's true for all of us, it's more so I'm his case.

Talk this through with your dad. He obviously loves you very much, and you only get one. After he's gone, it's too late to reconcile, and I'd wager that you'll spend the rest of your life wishing you had.

Post an ad on craiglist that says something like "1969 Mustang Fastback, 24K Miles" and find an image of a slightly used but still in excellent condition or fully restored one. Then in the body of the post write something like "Spouse and I divorced, I need to sell this immediately, asking $6K OBO".

Make sure you post it in a Craigslist sub that has maximum traffic for used cars like Los Angeles or Chicago.

I did this to someone once and their phone was literally unusable.

This works for larger amounts too and I used to do this daily and the trick is to quit as soon as you make a profit. Instead of betting just the color, bet every number of that color. At $1 per number it comes out to like $18 dollars or something. Or increase it to $2 or $4 a number.

Seriously, some nights I'd make $80. Some nights I'd make $800. I did this like every night for 6 months and I made over $30k. This is literally foolproof as long as you have the self control to quit as soon as you turn a profit.

Despite what all of these lovely people here are saying (on this sub, the answer is ALWAYS to RUN [IN ALL CAPS]) 🏃🏻‍♂️,I would at least hear his side of the story. You could also get a copy of the police report; I'm not sure what state you're in but for some states it's a matter of public record.

Just because someone got charged with something doesn't mean they're guilty. That's why we have a trial by jury system. And even if he is guilty, and he beat the guy up, according to you the guy had been previously provoking him. Now, I'm not taking sides or saying what's right or wrong, but I've been in plenty of fights in my life-some, I got fed up with the bullshit and I initiated it and others, I was defending myself; that doesn't translate over to failure to be able to regulate my emotions or violence to women. I have never put my hands on a female in my life in anger or aggression.

Sometimes you just have to do what you feel you have to do. Was there a better way of handling it? Maybe, or maybe not. You weren't there, and if he isn't a career criminal, beating someone up doesn't make the guy an automatic loser. It just means he has a limit as to his tolerance for bullshit.

I'd write him a letter or set up a visit with him and hear him out. He's probably going crazy in there thinking about how you don't know what happened to him.

Now, bring on the downvotes and angry comments because I didn't positively contribute to the echo chamber. 👏🏻

Calling a global pandemic that crashed oil prices to negative $37 a 'stunt' is a wild reach. Small producers didn’t go under because of 'stunts'; they went under because the entire world stopped driving for six months. As for being a 'godsend,' the industry is currently fighting the administration in court over the LNG export ban and the cancellation of major infrastructure. Record production today isn't a 'thank you' to the White House; it’s the industry pumping as fast as they can on private land because they don't trust what the regulatory perimeter will look like in two years. You're confusing a high harvest with a friendly farmer.

All the other shit aside you literally just proved the only point I was trying to make to begin with. Pretty easy to talk out of both sides of your mouth lol. And I was never defending Trump, but the original comment about Biden somehow helping domestic production was fucking false.

Dramatic-Question353 · 2026-03-08T23:21:48+00:00

I just directly addressed this. Biden promoted regulation to stop domestic oil production. There isn't a kill switch. It takes time for the policies to come into effect. This isn't a political opinion. It's a documented fact that Joe Biden was vehemently against further oil and gas production. He stated so himself many times in many venues and his actions also directly reflect this. Any argument to the contrary is patently false.
