Sweet Christ on a Pogo Stick. That is so dumb. I hate the church hiring process and how long it takes, but at least all that psychobabble crap is dealt with prior to ordination.
For the company they're not.Why are both of these answers negative?!
...in Seminary?I hate the church hiring process and how long it takes, but at least all that psychobabble crap is dealt with prior to ordination.
Not always. There are Candidacy Boards that do interviews at various stages of the process. They are responsible for looking at the stuff beyond seminary - emotional intelligence, ethics, belief system, cultural competencies, etc. Some Boards tend toward psychobabble in their deliberations, and it is tiresome. And after a couple of recent experiences it has become quite clear that we miss shit, sometimes rather egregiously. But that's another post....in Seminary?

And until the test makers add a “Hotness:” category, that’s how it’s going to stay.I care about whether the candidate can handle the work and whether he or she will get along with the company culture.

Difficulty getting hired? But I thought we needed to be bringing back child labor because huge swaths of positions were going unfilled because quiet quitters didn't want to work anymore?Leave it to the universe to make jokes but the company that had this question is the first offer I received in 3 months
they just throw those things up on hiring boards now; it was like the 20th or 30th one I took through IndeedI feel like 99% of the people who make it to the psych test get offered. Those tests cost the company money.
It really sucks. Hopefully she recovers quickly AND COMPLETELY!My wife has covid and is having a rough go. This is our first round of it, as far as we know. I don't know if I had it or have it. There's upper respiratory crud all over work right now. Amazingly none of our kids are slightly affected.
Someone stole my new gel cushion seat once. That bike ride home sucked. Sorry Nick!Dear asshole who stole my front bike light while I was in the Braemore Superstore.
Thanks a lot. Now I have to bike the rest of the way home in the dark.
I hope you crash and break every goddamn bone in your body.
Can you really call it a Superstore if it doesn't even have any replacement bike lights?Braemore Superstore.

They're a grocery store. They don't sell that kind of thing.Can you really call it a Superstore if it doesn't even have any replacement bike lights?
This really sounds like the beginning of a found-footage style horror movie. Glad a lake cryptid didn't devour you.But getting there was a pain without a front light. Part of my route is through a shared trail around Lake Banook. And there's no lighting for most of it.
Wait, they're even only a 1 type of product store...They're a grocery store.
There are this rubber straps you can use to put your phone on the bike bars (at least we have them over here) that would also allow you to use your phone's flashlight as an alternative to your front lights just in case. And it's less likely to get stolen of the bike since it's just rubber.I wound up buying a new light at Decathlon on the way home. But getting there was a pain without a front light. Part of my route is through a shared trail around Lake Banook. And there's no lighting for most of it.
