I didn’t really like TWoP, having been banned three times for no real reason, I found it to be a very toxic environment. But sometimes I wanted to know what other people thought of tv shows that I watched and there was really no other place to do that. I never read any of the recaps and wasn’t really familiar with the mods.

I have never freelanced, but in my most recent position I did sometimes have to approve freelancer timesheets, I think they normally got paid the pay period after they submitted their invoice, but I would sometimes get emails from freelancers about missing payments and would have to follow up with finance to resolve the issue.

This reminds me I once either got a warning or banned there for saying “I seem to be in the minority”.

It was a nightmare there. I got banned a few times for no real reason. I know once I was banned for just stating that I didn’t like Ross and Rachel from Friends. Opinions weren’t allowed. I’ve never really had any problems here.

There’s also one by a company called Native who’s commercial with a woman who’s half some type of horse creature airs constantly on Hulu. I can’t wait until these all go away.

I actually did have a manager like this who never replied to emails. She was one of the nicest managers I ever had, the day to day was great but she wasn’t a very effective manager. My situation was a little different in that I didn’t need her to train me on anything though, I had been in the position before she became my manager and I understood the job better than she did. We got a lot of emails and I know she didn’t respond to my colleague’s emails either. This was pre Covid and I had to go into her office if I sent her an email that I needed her to reply to urgently. I did like reporting to her on a day to day basis as she was easy going, I always got whatever time I wanted off, if I needed to leave early or come in late it was never an issue, but she was ineffective as a manager in that she was always promising me promotions and stuff and there was no follow through.

Lol! I’m not a big sports person and I don’t really hate them necessarily but if there’s a team I root against it would be the Boston Red Sox.

I’ve only ever been into the original. I would consider watching the Tiva spin off if it were to air on CBS instead of Paramount +.

Fornell hands down

I’ve managed to get interviews without my graduation date on my resume. Getting hired is another story.

Mine are: Truth or Consequences Judgement Day

I had another phone screen on Thursday that was nothing but red flags. First the salary is ten thousand lower than what is listed in the ad. Then the recruiter told me that the hiring manager got mad that the last person in the role would ask her questions when she could just google the answers. The hiring manager thought the last person in the role was too quiet, didn’t speak up enough in meetings and didn’t participate enough in their online conversations about non-work related stuff. The whole thing just sounds like a toxic work environment to me.

This is fair, but it doesn’t make me feel any better when I’m unemployed and without health insurance and can and have done everything listed in the job description. I think it may have been a scam of some type though I’m not sure what the purpose was. They had me set up the Teams meeting without saying what time worked for them and then no one showed up. I emailed the recruiter asking what time works for them but never heard back.

I may have an interview with a company that has no information on Glassdoor or anywhere else. I was wondering if this is a red flag? They do have a profile on LinkedIn. I think they’re a relatively new company within the last few years. I didn’t even have a phone screen, the hr person just emailed me saying that the hiring manager wants to interview me and asked for my availability and then after I replied sent me information about how I have to set up the Teams interview, and it’s not even clear to me if I would be scheduling the interview for a future time or being interviewed right away, so I’m going to set this up in the morning when I’m dressed in my suit with hair and makeup done and everything I need in front of me just in case, but I’m willing to do the interview because the listed salary is good. Also a job that I interviewed for has been re-listed, which is really annoying because it means they didn’t choose someone who was better than me, they just didn’t like me despite the fact that I’m fully qualified to do the job.
