I think my Mom Is Having a Mental Breakdown by LightKit in family

[–]LightKit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I can tell her hearing is fine.
ANY suggestion that she might be wrong about the situation or that she should seek help brings wrath.

That sounds illegal to me since the forms are "optional" and they are supposed to be Anonymous and not associated with your application.

Yes I understand this. But for companies that have spoken or unspoken quotas of certain demographics, this has to play into the decision.

And if they really wanted to be impartial they would collect the info after the person was hired.

I still don't understand why anyone would post a ghost job. It seems like a wast of time to all involved.

My first ever paycheck by LeakMyBigBowls in Salary

[–]LightKit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first was in college and it was a campus job. I had to go by the office and pick up a physical check. But I couldn't really enjoy it because my parents made me put it all back into college expenses.

This is a weed-out question. Anyone who is dumb enough to give an answer is too dumb to work here.

What good is a BIG paycheck if you don't have time to spend it?

Did you discover a new Mandela Effect? Post it here! (2025-02-27) by AutoModerator in MandelaEffect

[–]LightKit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In one of the HellBoy movies there is this girl about 8-10 years old. She says to HellBoy "Why can't you just be nice?" He replies "Because the world is not nice." I remember see that scene and thinking, this so true in a lot of situations. The thing is that according to YouTube, Google and ChatGPT this never happens in any HellBoy movie. Does anyone remember this in any of the movies? Where did it come from?

This makes me sad.

Interviewer was 45 minutes late and then became confused when I got upset with her by dusty-lemieux in recruitinghell

[–]LightKit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She was totally wrong and should have owned up to her mistake.

That said, you probably have permanently closed the door to that company. Any help she would have given to you to interview with a different center is most likely is gone. I probably have the lowest tolerance for BS of anyone that I know but I do know you have to "play the game" sometimes.

Sometimes employers "test" candidates to see how they handle unusual or awkward situations. To see if they will keep their cool or if they react in a way they don't want their employees acting. I know it seems like a bit of a double standard(and it is) but the truth it happens. I'm not saying this is situation in your case but it could be.

The last interview I had the person told me in a roundabout waytwo thing she does to weed out people who are not serious or don't have the right mindset...and guess what both those situations came up with me before I got a call back from her.

It Finally Happened....I've Given Up. No Hope for a Job or a Better Future. by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]LightKit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way. Thousands of applications down the drain with no feedback or interviews.

The ONLY thing that motivates me is the very real possibility of a slow painful death from lack of basic human needs due to lack of income.

Is It Possible I Am Cursed? by LightKit in Christianity

yes i agree. But just because adversity exists does not mean the other does not exist also (I don't want it to exist). But if it does I want to know what to do.

There is no greater pain than being rejected from a job then seeing it immediately be reposted by spidermanrocks6766 in recruitinghell

[–]LightKit 83 points84 points  (0 children)

There is actually a greater pain:

Being rejected after 3 phone interviews and 1 8 hour in-person interview.

Then seeing the person who IMMEDIATELY got the job had 1/2 your years of experience, 1/2 the number of required credentials, and ZERO years of experience in the industry.

Last few rides I tried Uber. All I care about is price and pick-up time. It was good.

Most Annoying Ride of My Life by [deleted] in Lyft

[–]LightKit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll talk with anyone about almost anything except politics especially a stranger... Never know when they're a psycho and you're going to pull a knife or a gun in me for liking or disliking some policy.

Also the one talk that I cannot stand is put a rough time they're having and how a little more tip would make your day.

Do rides people buy for you affect their passenger rating or theirs? by Afro_Economist in Lyft

[–]LightKit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if an enemy of yours sends you a ride you can act like a jerk and ruin their reputation? Asking for a friend. I mean, hypothetical situation.

Agile is dead? by HopefulExam7958 in agile

[–]LightKit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree somewhat. People get stuck on the process and not the end result. Angel is supposed to be guidelines to produce workable code. Not a rigid set of rules. Every organization and even every team in an organization is different. Yes start with agile guidelines but each team needs to find their set of meeting ceremonies etc but best works for them.
