I once got a message on linkedin from a lady who wanted me to work for her [big company]. Twice we met up for 'interviews' where she promised the world, she was very ott. Third interview she schedules with 2 other people, she doesn't come (she is a super senior boss). So yeah in this third interview these 2 people give a completely different understanding of the job. Them: do you do video editing? Me: .....no Them: 80% of the job is video editing Me....cool beans Then after harassing relentlessly me for weeks I never heard from this woman again lol

Fart Dumbass posted:wfh training is great, it's like 95% just chilling playing ps5 while i wait for a bunch of people to get through the same material I did 20 times slower for some reason. thank u everyone for being slow af Maybe they are deliberately taking a hot minute to finish so that they don't need to go onto the next thing? Like they are sitting there with the thing open while making a cup of tea or posting in yospos or whatever

Change back to videos! Then maybe do a low effort game like a video quiz or something at the end. It sounds to me like you have a sound justification to change plans

rear end-penny posted:I hope you have (had?) good luck at your interview EF. someone placed a takeout order 10 to close tonight. I told them we closed real soon and they should come to the store immediately, they said they'd be there in 15. 45 minutes later I'm done with everything, and apparently I didn't even get their real phone number, because our caller id sucks, and it was my driver's number instead. anyway, if they ever showed up for their food, hopefully they are as angry as I am Oh goon that sucks

Finger Prince posted:I'm not saying it's good, just that it's universal and omnipresent, like climate change. Whether it's a food safety cert, or a Microsoft azure cert, or a chemotherapy cert, or an air brakes license, or anything like that, if your last job didn't give you it then you're going to be on the hook for it to get a look in at any place that puts "must be x certified" in the job posting. It's cool and good if you work for a place or run a place that provides on the job training and pays for licensing and certification, but most places don't do that. Hell, think of how many jobs require a bachelor's degree that they absolutely don't pay for. In Australia this would be illegal to do (make you pay for a certification that is a requirement for a job they have already hired you for). You also get paid for the time spent doing the training.

THAT'S THE COST OF DOING FUCKIN BUSINESS. x 69 million In other news, I don't work fridays so let the page 69 no work party begin!

Dr. Honked posted:also some people who are really bad at writing resumes get their friend to write it for them. however, the friend is also bad at writing resumes. I know someone who paid for a "professional" to do their resume, but when I looked at it years later it was garbage. I completely redid it but it makes me cranky to think of the missed opportunities from that thing! Also don't pay a professional to do your resume - if you have friends/family who have been responsible for hiring/firing get them to look instead and provide feedback. The ability to download a resume template from word doth not a professional make

Buttchocks posted:I think I might work for a cult. The upper managers made us sit through a lecture this week about how it's totally worth it to make sacrifices and work 80/hr weeks in order to become a super-manager who makes lots of money for the company. Sounded a lot like what you'd hear in a church/MLM scam and set off a lot of red flags for me. Also apparently in order to get a position in upper management, you need to participate in something called The Path and buy a lot of shares. If our office has some sort of alter in the basement, I haven't found it yet, but I wouldn't be surprised. Gosh, now I feel like one of those Lovecraftian characters who investigates secret worshipers of some ancient Deep One and goes mad or turns into a fish. This is bad juju goon, you might wanna bail on this bad boy
