      Either you:

      • panic and stop the application because you’re a literal child
      • you stop the application like an an adult because because of the red flag this is
      • you write in “no” or “I don’t use them” like an adult
      • or you provide your information like a child because you’re incapable of even the slimmest act of defiance.

      I lived in a “purple” city and constantly dealt with illegal application requests.

      Its only illegal if companies actually get punished. But nah, not when you have a man in the white house who can touch little girls and gargle presidential balls and nothing happens.

        Let’s be very clear: only one of those two sexual acts is illegal. The other one is just hilarious proof that we live in the most stupid timeline.

          Ah thanks for clarifying. I noticed I did write it that way implying the throating a president is against the law. My mistake. Knob jobs on politicians when done consensually is alright in my book.

    “N/A” is the correct answer unless your account happens to be under your real name. “Fuck you, try and find it” is what you should be thinking.

      I was so proud when I read about teenagers who have a named social account and their “secondary” real account, because their schools required access to track them.

    I love (read: hate) the ones that have a lengthy survey, full of questions and repeats to gauge your priorities by forcing you to choose one thing over another. Ive gotten such gems as, “Would you rather: 1) ensure that customers leave satisfied and happy; or 2) have a good work-life balance?”

    I recently attempted to apply for a job and they wanted a link to my LinkedIn page. Fair enough, but then they also had another spot for “Website” that was mandatory to fill in, and it would not allow me to continue with the application until I had a legit website in there, and it wouldn’t accept the same link as my LinkedIn page that I’d already used in the space above, so I just gave up. Fuckers.

        A decade ago I would’ve agreed. Now I’m not too sure there’s enough difference to be significant.

        I mean the second part of your comment. Obviously I agree with not having an IG lol

        These are evil companies, but I am curious what metric you’re using to say one is worse than the other when their objectives and methods are similar.
