single to be in apprenticeship?

I am not sure, but some of the questions bugged me. I applied for a lot of job, and this one ” Cloud Apprenticeship” ask about household income, be single or to live with someone, even ask for birthday. Is this weird? https://preview.redd.it/hl1ij2f3adp81.png?width=826&format=png&auto=webp&s=b4fedbd10bcec02b79bfe60af02f56c1c3af0d87

Anti Resume

Why do I need to forge experience on a resume to get considered for a job that will pay a wage that let's someone live semi-comfortably.

Anyone else have gone through being hired, but only given one shift per week?

So I got hired at a new job and everyone there mentioned they have at least two to three jobs all at the same time, I thought they just needed more money for their situations since that's how it usually is, but I noticed something off with the schedule, people were only being scheduled one to two days per week, wouldn't it be common sense to just give the current workers more hours instead of hiring people for one day of the week? Has this happened to anyone else? I mean, you'd think the manager would just give his already minimal amount of hours to his current workers, but I guess not. I left that job and found another one because obviously nobody can live off of four hours of work a week. Tbh that manager was very, very strict and rude, if you even did 0.001% of something your…

How does antiwork feel about shoplifting?

How do you feel about shoplifting? I want to emphasize that I mean shoplifting from giant corporate owned retail establishments; Wal-Mart, Target, National Grocery Chains, etc. Never from; Mom & Pop, small privately owned chains, etc. Or does shoplifting make a person shitty regardless?

Remove Withholding

I need someone smarter than me to figure this out but I had a shower thought. What if we all changed the tax withholding on our paychecks so that we stopped sending the government our money? I would be fine with dropping my tax money into a savings account and just pay at tax time if we can choke the government into finally listening to us. We need to cut off the steady stream of money and let them know that we are the ones paying the bills and that they work for us. Not sure if this is plausible but its something to think about? An organized tax strike would wake up a few people I think.

Work Issues and mental health

I'm looking for some advice. Currently at work now and having a very hard time focusing, and I'm constantly debating if I want to keep my job. A quick background: I work full-time in an office where we wear a lot of hats. I've been here over 2 years. This year has been really unfortunate health-wise (combo of Covid and allergies) and I recently suffered a full week of burn-out… So now I no longer have sick and personal time. After the burnout, I went to my boss and asked if she could reduce my hours to 6 a day, which was refused. This was very frustrating. Due to the fact that I've been absent for 19 days out of the year so far, I got a final written warning from my boss last week. I've been struggling with some burnout/depression today and requested to leave early, in which my…
