They just didn't do it so obviously.<br />Oddly enough, this is part of why I like face to face rather than filling out applications that can take up to an hour. If they don't like my age, looks, etc. then we can be done with it then and there and I don't waste my time.Ananda girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09578471199205376974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7176829704548523811.post-82660971746875407252010-10-07T09:58:57.973-07:002010-10-07T09:58:57.973-07:00Cricket-- Ha.

How much did they use?<br /><br />Just kidding.<br /><br />Being a hirer, I think the current anti-discrimination tools are pretty ridiculous, especially for new hires. But it seems businesses just have to show that they're tolerant...rather than actually being tolerant.3GKnighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06619904623457434103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7176829704548523811.post-4003605557192530362010-10-07T03:11:46.702-07:002010-10-07T03:11:46.702-07:00Heh, heh.
