  • I think often times the question are well intentioned but to some degree they are also fishing for things they can’t legally ask like are you planning to get pregnant soon, will you be a flake because you have sick kids or a parent you’re taking care of, planning to retire soon. Are you a job hopper. Will investing time and training in you worth it for us. I was always dumb and just answered those questions mostly honestly but they just listen for signs you won’t be a model slave in some cases.

    I tried to get a position I was overqualified for once and told them I was looking forward to not being a manager, not having to have every employee be my problem, be able to take time off without coming back with a mess…take a weekend off now and then…be a great fucking employee and then clock the fuck out.

    Their questions got really shitty and it was very clear they were twisting everything I said into meaning I wasn’t a team player. Bullshit I’m the best player on every team I’ve ever been on at work.

    Long story short, don’t answer questions like that honestly. Don’t be honest about anything. Lol













  • Wife and I both got a couple of dollars from the equifax settlement where millions of people had their private info leaked. I feel like it was 20 something?

    There have been others for tiny amounts. Being an AT&T user when they got sued for throttling “unlimited” data a few years back (they still but now they disclose it so it’s fine). Lots of times the biggest ones that affect a ton of people can be a big dollar amount but so many users it ends up being tiny checks for each person who claims. I have seen some where the postage is more than the check is for. Gotta love lawyers…


  • Love Ice Cubes for Mastodon and Voyager for Lemmy. I’ve tried to use others besides wefwef/Voyager but after soooo many years using Apollo it just feels so comfy. Navigation, the font, the way things are organized and displayed. I’m a creature of habit. I am hoping more features are added like a solid text editor, add photos to comments, user profiles, messaging…

    I probably should keep trying others and at least test them & leave good reviews so the feddiverse keeps building and apps can compete with other social medial bullshit.
