The whole “Personal Reference” on applications is complete bull shit!

Seriously, am I really suppose to have friends, family, coworkers take phone calls just so I can get a job later? And when you have 50 applications going out, I personally would not return any calls if I was used as a reference, that would be annoying! And also, who is going to give out the name and number to someone who would give negative reviews about said person anyway! I think it is a ancient ideology that needs to be gone.

Should inheritance be capped?

I see that one of the biggest grievances people on this sub have is with rich people who have their money because it was willed to them by their parents, or at the very least had a substantial amount loaned or gifted to them to start their enterprises. Having said that, what should be done about it? Should the concept of inheritance be abolished? Or if it should only be capped, where do you draw a line?

Can anyone send me the video from yesterday of that woman complaining about the price of eggs and how expensive stuff is today? The OP seems to have deleted it.

It was originally from tik tok cringe. She mentioned how she makes a combined $120k a year with her husband and a lot of people were misunderstanding what she was complaining about. I wanted to send it to someone and it’s not in my saved Reddit posts and this sub/the other sub anymore. Thank you kindly!

My Hair Stylist Has Diabetic Fainting Incident Keeps Working

TLDR: At the bottom. This just happened, I went to get a haircut at one of the big chain haircut places. The girl was checking me in and kept yawning hard and seemed kind of out of it. At first, I thought this might be a heroin or pain pill situation even though this is a fairly nice area and haircut place. There was only one other girl in there, and she was finishing up a haircut, I honestly thought about requesting her, but my politeness gene kicked in so I didn't. This girl zombie walked me to her station, and we began chit chatting. She told me she had passed out earlier that morning while cutting someone else's hair. She said she recently found out she might have type 1 diabetes and her blood sugar was low. She had picked up a new medication for it that morning but…

I got fired from my job today, and I don’t really know why.

I am a construction superintendent manange commercial construction sites. I was working for a company for 3 years, the pay got me by but there came a point where I felt it wasn’t balancing out with the time I put in (salary) especially considering inflation. So I started applying around (while still in my position) until I got hired with a new company that paid more, and gave me this whole a run around about how they are like a family etc. It seemed like it was going to be a great gig that I could work at long term. I was working there about 2 months, they didn’t really have me doing a whole lot kind of bouncing around to different projects. I figured there was a job in the pipeline that I would take over soon. The company was moving into a new office space which was a…
