I deleted my Facebook page. It was old, and all my old friends moved on, it was time to let go.

Now I no longer have to worry about companies and potential e-stalkers.

I appealed to them through bombast, charts and counterclaims with all the evidence I needed on hand. Aside from their lack of knowledge on the subject they weren't the type to vehemently deny evidence in front of them.

I hope you have better luck then me. I thought I got a new job after so long, it was just a scam to embezzle money. I reported them to the police and my bank before they got a single cent transferred. My day will be awesome if this leads to their asses to jail.

Ah! You must be a Friend that exploits the desperation of others!

:laffo: drat that sucks, but I'd love to hear details (or post them in BFC). Fortunately the remaining phone interview and on-site interview are for very real companies. I also know a guy at the on-site place and talked to him today, where he allayed a lot of my corporate culture concerns about the place. So that's cool.

Originally I got the job the day after my Summer Semester after my counselor said to try looking for work as a data entry clerk since I type 80+ words per minute. I got the job offer through Snagajob, a site for job hunting. After what I thought was an interview I was sent a check containing thousands of dollars. I was told this was to pay for equipment like computer and accounting software.

Basically this morning when I told them the deposited check wasn't available until next August I apologized and offered to buy the software and hardware equipment through credit. They then told me to use Western Union to help transfer the funds to "vendors." Thankfully the two people I was supposed to send the funds to did not receive the money because the bank did not approve the transfer of funds. After a tired walk back home and feeling guilty over wasting the time of what I thought was going to be my only employer in a long while I called the police, they pretty much told me that I was getting scammed and used as a way to embezzle funds through the untraceable Western Union system.

I drove to the local police station and told them everything, and showed them just about everything, photos of checks, letters, forwards to online letters, names, phone numbers and chat logs. They then filed it as a police report and told me to contact the bank to notify them, and then they thanked me for letting them know. I drove home, contacted the bank, used the magic words to get past the automated customer service system to get a specialist, and then they too believed the check to be a bad check, so they put a halt to that altogether, I informed them of the police report and they thanked me for telling them this info. The scammers did not get any money transferred from my account and the proper authorities know about it.

And now here I am, hours later, mentally exhausted as gently caress, jobless, almost scammed, unable to enjoy things as my deadly chronic depression tends to do in bad situations like this and overall just trying to tell myself that I did the best I could in this scenario. The first job in a year, and it was a scam, done via a job hunting site my mom gave to me in order to help me out. This is XCOM tier bullshit. If this was in a visual novel you'd say this is so unrealistic and over the top misery porn in order to make you feel sad for the anime waifu. Then again that can be said for alot of things in my and other people's lives.

Oh boy I sure have a story to tell to my counselor, she's not going to believe the amount of bad things that happen to me.

I found a cat. It started rubbing up on me, and it was totally happy being picked up. It was near a huge intersection with a ton of cars. It didn't have a tag on it. I called the nearest shelter and they said they don't accept strays but they can see if it has a microchip. it didn't. They suggested giving it to the anti-cruelty society but that's a kill shelter so that makes me nervous. Currently she's in my bathroom with a nice bed, food, water, some toys,and a litter box.she is absolutely the sweetest cat. She even went into the carrier easily.

I'm debating whether to keep it (I haven't sexed it yet, don't want to stress her out more. I'm leaning on keeping her but I'm goi v to take her to the vet and get her checked out.

That's a good thing you did. Hope that vet appointment turns out all right.
