1.) “Sure, I can do that.” 2.) “Unfortunately I am unavailable.” Anything else is an invitation to get into an argument. Anything that you receive in response to Answer #2 should be left on read.

Before I am attacked I get there is sometimes a reason for this, but damn near most of the time it is for pot on a job where it doesn't matter.

Amazon Breaking More Laws
Tl;Dr. Amazon Warehouse in Colorado Springs is using an illegal phone jammer in their warehouse/recruiting site. I was getting desperate for a job so I bit the bullet & applied to Amazon, go in to do the precise screening & drug test & they tell me I missed a document online that I need to do real quick. I go to pull it up from my email & there is no signal at all (grayed out with the small x over the icon for signal bars) & she informs me we need to connect our phones to the wifi to check email so I say something along the lines “im not giving you access to my device, why isn't my phone working?

We need to terrify these greedy corporations as a whole and discipline the shit out of them. Start making your own coffee or supporting other businesses if you care about workers' rights. Union strong!
