Sure but how will a candidate ever learn of the “badmouthing?” They won’t. Companies know this and there is no way a candidate can address accurate or inaccurate references. All information providers have to do is use a unique tone or other inflection to mean “no, we would not rehire,” while they say “Yes!…

The water spout shooting from the bow is...I don't know though it is obviously by human action. Older boats eject sanitary tanks' contents from the bow area and upward when in port but that's with a discharge hose connected. If the water we see here is "dirty," then someone really messed up, no pun intended.

Been there. Done that. Walked underneath submarines. Climbed ladders inside the ballast tanks.

Ballast water drains from below along the sub's length.

How do reference checkers ensure they are speaking with the applicant’s supervisor? The search for confirmation bias is inherently biased and often incorrect.

Ha - and not the funny, pleasant ha. I preferred using indy shops to repair/maintain my 1972 280SE 4.5 and there were two I did not mind using. One in Charleston, SC and one in Atlanta. The car was at the Charleston shop for a month and my Alpine CD changer and remote were stolen. The Atlanta shop pulled the center…

Skill - or just growing up in the sport and learning?

"Banks and even my high school teachers assured me that I'd be able to afford to pay back my student loans and such once I graduated from college."

Say for example, the local attorney for the police rear ends you. (Which you learn promptly as he shows his business card with the ID you request.) The police arrive and place the attorney's info in "Driver 1" spot and you in "Driver 2" spot? The attorney and the officer sure were chummy, you know, if that really…

Yes, the Methodist Church does turn away volunteers, at least in my anecdotal experience. Having worked for a feeding mission for years, I attempted to volunteer at the local Methodist Church. Instead, the leader instructed me to sit in a corner and await her. She returned with a similarly elderly man who remained…

I've seen that happen.

Every school is a for-profit school. Those that say they are not are the ones that are lying.

How is avoiding the problem any sort of resolution? The cause is not corrected, ergo the symptoms will continue to manifest. Is HR so paranoid about being made a fool they won't admit their people are correct?

how did the person holding the camera know to film this person before she arrived?

Good topic with good information. Thank you.

Freaking gorgeously amazing car! How was it? I noticed the Pirellis are 80 rated.

White hot.

The Mercedes shop in Atlanta that left my 280SE's tranmission tunnel loose. Accelerator went behind and became stuck as I exited the shop. Nearly struck the car ahead. Shop dude said "Oh, sorry about that!" as the brakes smelled from the heat.

And y-o-u-apostrophe-r-e. Ack! Thank you!

And you'll continue to protect the offenders and their schools just as your told, apparently.
