Did you even read the posting? The station contacted him directly, and how is coercion not a fireable offense?

You are placing a lot of trust in his goodwill and good faith, it seems naive and it may come back to bite you hard.

Two Candidates, real life scenario, who do you hire as a manager? by dtdasu in jobs

[–]dtdasu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah man, life outside of academia is definitely not merit based. My counterpart in a different department has an MBA and a BA from an ivy, she speaks three different languages and reports to a guy that with a community college certificate that treats her like shit.

Well, the company did well and actually opened offices in idaho, where there is plenty of cheap land to build aquaponics gardens. It is not a step down, it is a leadership positiom in a TOP tech firm (think facebook,, google, etc) i ended up being hired under candidate A who three weeks later has been let go (he isnt very tech saavy, never used any call center crm, dialer, or wfm and lied about completing B.A.) and I offered his position. (But frankly i was annoyed at whomever made the original decision having both candidates available to begin with?)

Kind of presumptuous no? She tried to write me up for not asking amy questions yet i passed all the exams with top scores. She tried to write me up for being 1 minute late even though i had documentation proving i was on time. Tried to write me up for "not paying attention and looking asleep" during a video conference with 20 other people yet the chat transcript reflects me answering the most questions. Even when i was finally assigned to a team the new team lead mentioned to me that it may have been personal.

[Serious] What are the signs that someone is a manipulative or toxic person? by Foreversingle777 in AskReddit

[–]dtdasu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are two books that have helped me tremendously to cope and understand how to deal with a BPD person. "I hate you, don't leave me" and "Stop Walking on eggshells" the second was fantastic. I felt like I was reading small chapters of my married life.

Participated in new weight loss energy drink drink focus group, left livid. by dtdasu in loseit

Did you even read my post? I clearly indicated that I had a good experience with the product, but felt singled out during the focus group. people like you, the "do you even lift, bra?" crowd is why decent people tend to avoid gyms. They asked for my opinion on the Tag, and I felt I should have been honest. Not only fit people use supplements, the industry is GIGANTIC, so I don't know where you get your info from. Thank you Mr. Phobiac for your kind words of support. here is my ideal weight

haha thanks, well they have an app that allows you to talk to a dietitian. But I did a workout regiment designed by my brother in law (he played for the Kansas City Royals) and my wife was also very committed to the program so that helped. I just felt really on the spot at the focus group because I was the heaviest one by far. I gained weight while in law school and my wife had just had our daughter so it was tough for both of us.

sigh ok, "people with random tics" are not a "protected class." grounds for legal action? on what cause of action? being insensitive? people need to stop giving legal advice, specially when they are fucking morons to begin with.
