If you were the hiring manager for a returning employee and 40 references of 44 refused to support that job applicant would you hire them?

[DrPepper12]

Yes. It's my decision not the references.

No. Ex-coworkers opinions are vitally informative.

Well if you haven't figured it out the returning employee is Trump and the 40:44 references were his own hand picked allies - the cabinet secretaries whom he closely worked with. Says a lot, doesn't it?

[blueonblack22]

I doubt it’s any coincidence if 40 people don’t think that highly of this guy. Sounds like he’s got some major issues going socially and/or upstairs.

[DrPepper12]

Yes, yes it does. It's Trump.

[blueonblack22]

We’ve had our political spats on other posts but did have to be political?

Let me ask you another question you should consider:

You have drainage backup in your house and have to call a plumber. Option A is a smelly uncouth dude who would be your last choice for a wingman if you were at a social event meeting women. But he’s good at his job and competently FIXES the problem.

Option B is more of a well kept, friendly and amicable “plumber”. But instead of fixing the clog in your drains he floods your whole house.

Who would you choose above? Never said Trump was great for optics. But of the love of God do you people REALLY want another 4 years of a grossly incompetent senile president (who is only getting worse)? Trumps POLICY had most Americans in a far better place when it came to the economy and national security both domestically (the border) and abroad.

Again do you REALLY want another 4 years of Biden? There is no magical 3rd option either. I like RFK too but he isn’t getting elected.

[DrPepper12]

Your just butthurt that you said Trump was mental and sus.

Yes. Trump is THAT bad. He's a weapons grade threat to our Republic and the international order. He's already destroyed the GOP party, possibly fatally, especially when the big macs catch-up to him when the Succession battle begins as to who is the legit heir. Face it, "He who rides a tiger is afraid to dismount"

As far as the plumber I'll be damned if I'm calling a plumber at $175 an hour. Fuck that. I'll break out the compressor and the snake. If that doesn't work it's time for the pressure pillow or sharper and wider armttachments. If it still can't be done I cut out the drywall, cut out the PVC and repair it back good as new. I do all my own work plumbing, electrical, appliance repair, roofing, siding, masonry, etc. No one works in this castle but me.

Funny one of my tenants I live with (I am a cohabiting landlord) fixed his own faucet yesterday. Usually renters break things instead of fix things.

But anyways don’t be a knucklehead. You know exactly what I mean about the analogy above. When it comes down to POLICY America was overall way better off under Trump then Biden. If Biden wasn’t so grossly incompetent I might of sat this election out or voted for RFK. But I’m feeling the pinch with inflation and YOU ARE TOO. And my home town is turning into a shit hole.

While that may not be all Biden’s fault (local politicians are worse) having droves of unemployed illegal immigrants (some with violent criminal records) here using tax payer funded programs sure as hell is.

But again are you really prepared for more hyperinflation, illegal immigrants in our backyard, ongoing wars (that escalate to have direct US involvement), etc? I guess to avoid that negative “feeling” about Trump outweighs reality.

[DrPepper12]

Inflation: not Biden's fault. It's from the pandemic and corporate greed and it's worldwide

Illegal immigrants: the border is a distraction for fox viewer demographics. The real problem is visa overstays (70%) of those already employed. Employers don't report it and life goes on. If employers were actually punished by hiring illegals the flow would stop cold since there's no reason to come. GOP doesn't want their cheap labor to disappear so they cosplay border security and fools buy it. Just look at the bill Trump ordered killed; it's everything the GOP asked for in the last 40 years! It's a Kabuki theatre. Don't buy it.

Ukraine: We guaranteed their defense in mid 90s when WE talked them into giving their nukes to Russia when USSR broke up. WE LIED and let psycho Putin take Crimea and now here WE are. The world is watching. WE must defend Ukraine.

This isn't hard.

[RedInnocent69]

No. Soft skills are important. If no one will work with him, what’s the point?

[exitseven]

I might. If they were previously a good employee I would give that more weight than a bunch of people that would not support his hiring. There are a lot of companies that do not let mangers give feedback concerning ex employees any way. They do not want the lawsuits.

[NathanDavis]

I'd like to review their reasoning...

[DrPepper12]

Here's some quotes about trump from his hand picked employees exit interviews:

"dumb as a rock".

“I believe (foreign leaders) think he is a laughing fool.”

"He is the domestic terrorist of the 21st century.”

“I am terrified of him running in 2024"

"Donald Trump, who would attack civil rights icons and professional athletes, who would go after grieving black widows, who would say there were good people on both sides, who endorsed an accused child molester; Donald Trump, and his decisions and his behavior, was harming the country. I could no longer be a part
of this madness.”

"I think that Donald Trump is the most grave threat we will face to our democracy in our lifetime, and potentially in American history.”

I got lots more!!

[Agape93]

Fuck no.

[KrakenAttackin]

44 references, damn.
