So I'm in the middle of a hiring process with a company. The recruiter had just called me out of the blue because he was telling me what to expect in the interview, which I thought was strange to begin with. He then says “He's going to ask 'are you okay working with this position even though the contract is only 4 months'? And if he does just say yes. This is a test to see if you're going to be loyal to us.” For one, the job description didn't say anything about a 4 month contract so that's just false advertising. But for another he told me that he was going to lie to me in my interview to see if I'll accept his BS. It's like the whole “one of us only tells lies, one of us only tells the truth” set ups for working an installation job.

Draining Hospitality
I have done hospitality for about 6 years across 3 different countries. I am a Canadian currently working in New Zealand and I must say, it is draining dealing with people who treat you different because they assume you’re American (which they clearly have a prejudice towards). Also hospitality in general, I just read a review about myself saying they were disappointed in the way I was STANDING while serving them?! (Think deli style, like subway). I can’t wait to get a different career 🥲

What do you all think?
For context I work at the airport, there are 800 people on 3rd shift (my shift). One of the employees (Jake) fell asleep while working for a few minutes a manger sees him. This manger(Adam) went over yelling and screaming that he was fired. Jake said he’s not in charge of him so he won’t listen to him. Adam snapped at him and threw him to the ground and beat him so badly he went to the hospital. Adam’s reasoning was the employee tried to hit him first. The security footage says otherwise. Since I’m leading our union organization I feel like I should do something. Is there anything I can do?
