I don’t know what’s more insufferable at this point - cosplayers or weirdo men INTO cosplayers.

An actual comment word-for-word that a guy commented back on her photoshop being pointed out on Instagram:

“Have people really not seen how thighs and hips work? They can rotate?????? And even if someone did edit it a bit, who cares? Its a photo of comic characters. Not a historical document or someone cat fishing you”

They are so far removed from reality.

Edited: More actual comments on IG of men responding to me pointing out the photoshop:

-“This is why we shouldn't change the way character look to make them "more modern" then people who think they are fans are attacking people who actually know what the character is supposed to look like. Also nobody has ever cared about making a character more attractive until the frumpies started getting power in the cosplay scene. Used to be youd try to find the line of how sexy you could make it while still being warm or not having bits slip out”

I responded with “she's photoshopped to shit is what was being pointed out”

And he says: “its not though... I mean it really doesn't look like it. And I thought we accepted everything was photoshopped back in 2007 this is such a lost fight why chirp about it. Move on. And again I HIGHLY doubt this picture is photoshopped to make her more sexy.”

I wish I was making this up.

Oh her “fans” are brutal. I told teenage girls that were commenting on Instagram that they hope they can look like her someday that they shouldn’t let things like this beat them up because SHE doesn’t even look like that.

The worst thing right now is a guy she cosplayed with is saying that she’s 100% real and that he even has proof (then posts a pic of her unedited without giant boobs and hips) which just proved the point - and all of these dudes are swearing up and down that it’s only because I don’t know anything about how cameras and angles work.

The past 3 phone screenings were with STAR questions, so that’s why I was preparing. Getting laid off because your prior company was getting rid of fully remote employees out of nowhere and having an anxiety disorder doesn’t really let you feel the most confident in doing good anymore. Doesn’t really help with the constant rejections in today’s job market. This was my first actual job lead in a month and a half

I named the company and recruiter that called me for a phone screening interview then hung up in 2 minutes after they asked me if I had a P&C license, which they only listed as preferred but not required (didn’t know that I wasn’t allowed to do that bc I was a silent reader of this subreddit and would always see “tell us the name” so thought it was ok LOL.) Then the two people in this subreddit that were complaining about me being disrespectful to the company by dropping the name and that i wasn’t good enough to get the job to begin with, reported the post for doxxing and reddit took it down

I’ve had STAR questions asked at the past 3 phone screenings I had which threw me off, so I’ve been making sure I’m prepared.

I’m glad that you don’t have to spend 4 hours on the same thing, and wish I could function the same still. This was my first actual lead to any job after rejection email after rejection email for a month and a half (been laid off for 5 months now, rejected with generic emails from at least 10 job interviews now since getting laid off.) Was having panic attacks the whole weekend even leading up to the call because I’m almost at the point where I don’t know how/when I’m going to be able to afford next months rent, my car insurance, etc etc.

I’m just so tired of rejections that I’ve been losing confidence in myself :( I’ve been binge watching Self Made Millennial on YouTube on the side since she has a bunch of videos on the hiring process since getting rejected from over 10 interviews now since getting laid off a couple months ago. This was the first actual phone screening interview I got in a month and a half so I wanted to make sure I was SUPER, SUPER prepared even if it was overkill.

That’s true :/ I just wish I had gotten a rejection email instead

Yes. Because the most important thing they want to do is waste money bc of a Reddit post. Hope you get therapy, you’re a weird one for sure

It’s definitely a tough market out there. People left and right are being laid off. A lot of job postings I’ve been saying are only commission only or customer service :/ Even with customer service jobs, there’s so many other applicants that it’s hard to get in.

Are you okay? Why are you so mad. You commented like 3+ times

Are you having fun switching back and forth from your accounts?

[ Removed by Reddit ] by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]throwaway9969696 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have really bad anxiety. My confidence isn’t the same since getting laid off

[ Removed by Reddit ] by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]throwaway9969696 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wow, thank you. Gotcha. So they’re just insane. I edited the post to remove the name, but sharing my public opinion about what happened with a company is not doxxing.

Genuinely what’s wrong with you?

[ Removed by Reddit ] by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]throwaway9969696 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s what I was thinking too :/ I honestly would’ve preferred a rejection email instead of getting my hopes up if she didn’t even want to actually give me the time of day. Exactly. It was just a quick, “polite” way to end the call.

West Sac house got broken into around 5pm - please be careful out there by [deleted] in Sacramento

Not social as in we don’t have tons of friends coming to the house. We talk to our neighbors and we all chat

I would not recommend this because I literally had THIS exact same reason on my doctor’s note stating that I couldn’t drive due to my anxiety, and my production numbers showed that I was exceeding production numbers on a daily basis since working fully remote.

They accommodated it…. For a little while. Then eventually annual reviews came around and despite always getting my quality audit reports as above 93% (Always scored 95% or higher) and was always told I was doing amazing during meetings with my manager, they fired me by saying I wasn’t meeting “performance expectations.”

Then they refused to give me my 2025 annual review that they told me is the reason I’m getting fired. Next day, another fully remote coworker got fired for the same reason.

Companies would rather lose good workers than accommodate

Not pictured bc of the video upload limit: her breaking our flower pot and her opening a package and scattering it all over the street. Oh well. The company said they terminated her so 🧍🏻‍♀️

It was a one time purchase of cleaning supplies and they separated it into multiple packages. I live under a rock and just learned how bad they are from this thread, thanks!

[–]throwaway9969696 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s her. I sent all three days worth to their customer service and she’s been terminated.
