How did it go?
Yes, it’s a thing that happens. It’s quite common for an over-qualified person to be bored, hard to work with, and just picking up a paycheck while they’re looking for different work. Hiring an employee is expensive. If you can’t keep them for a while and/or they’re not a good fit for the team then you can be better off just leaving the position vacant.
Worth noting and not crazy important for an entry level position. Double true if there are limited options available. Take the job, learn some skills (including how to work in a bad environment) and then look for and move on to better opportunities. Caveat: Just don’t take one of these roles with a place where it’s going to stereotype you and/or give you no transferable skills/knowledge.
Don’t try to bullshit your way through anything. It’s actually a strength to admit that you don’t know something. Bonus points if you can describe the resources you would use to learn the answer.
Almost a repeat of the first one, but slightly different. Don’t play buzzword bingo or you’ll sound like the 5th grader that just learned a new curse word and is showing it off on the playground. It’s fine to use the industry jargon in appropriate ways; just be sure you know them.
It’s an entry level position. The kind of skills and initiative they’re going to be looking for is the desire to learn, the ability to correct/improve documentation, understanding/following procedures, thoughtful suggestions for improvements, and having enough confidence and competence that they don’t have to babysit you constantly.
Networking / servers / security really covers a lot of ground and it leaves me wondering exactly what it is you’re saying you’d like to do. Give some thought about how this entry level position helps you build your skills on your path to your ultimate goal and how you’ll provide value along the way.
Yeah, I’m early gen-x and I only answer the phone if its a member of my immediate family and even then it’s 50/50. Capitalism ruins everything. Need to talk to me? Leave a message and I’ll decide if and when to call you back.
Welcome to religion and war, boys and girls…
Why must it be color?
Probably wasn’t a good suggesting, anyway. Realistically, you need to talk to your parents. You can have an adult conversation with them about your and your partner’s wishes. If that ‘sours’ their attitude, then that is on them. Ultimately, your partner is more important than your parents so protect that relationship, first.
Move far away…
Yes, it sounds like we are. Unfortunately, you saw how difficult that was to get aligned on something so simple. Yet, until everyone is aligned on that, the excuse making will continue. Those who know and are racist are provided free cover and distraction. Those who don’t know don’t know who to believe, so they stick with what they think they know.
There’s a big difference between saying “a majority of his supporters are racist” and “their core is 100% racism.”
Core != All ; “their core” == “a majority of his supporters” – This inherently allows for the dimwits that are so fucking stupid that they support him and his racism even though they are black as well as any other what aboutism you’d like to conjure up.
There are low-income people who constantly vote against their own best interests and ensure they will stay poor. It happens. There are stupid people in the world. By gutting education, Tump and his lackeys seek to make even more stupid people to lead around by the nose.
We can start having the other conversations when we can nail down that it is an absolute truth that Trump and his core are racist.
You didn’t respond to what I wrote and instead went off on a tangent. Try to stay focused. Try to read for context.
What are your thoughts on the racism?
I quoted about the racism. The election was incidental and I didn’t discuss that part at all, but did discuss the racism.
And now, you’re changing the subject. Is it so hard to stay on subject? What is your objective here? Distraction from the original topic? What are your thoughts on the racism? I really don’t care to hear you blather on about anything else.
No. Do you always jump in and answer questions for other people without identifying that you’re doing that? I asked millie why they were going off on a rant. Nobody asked you. You’re welcome to participate anyway, but you might want to make it clear that’s what’s going on.
No, I was discussing the racism. No need to change the subject.
Sure some people are bigoted and support trump but it doesn’t follow that all folks that support trump are bigoted.
Most of his supporters are bigoted and every single one of them who isn’t mentally deficient certainly knows that they are supporting a bigot, so they still don’t get a free pass.
Why are you going off on some rant about how to win the election? What you’re saying is correct about how to approach the election and that’s not the subject of this post or this conversation.
Trump and the majority of his supporters are a bunch of god-damned racists. Welcome to reality.
If she can find an actual Republican and not a Magat or Libturd then it’s probably not a bad idea.
