      That should be evidence to them that they are the bad guys. No one tells a job offer to “fuck off” if the company isn’t utterly shit. Even if Meta or Twitter offered me a job I’d probably just use a curt “no” and move on. But, Project Veritas, Heritage Foundation, Palantir? They’d get a “fuck off” for sure.

        Yeah. I’ll interview with anyone who wants it, but for Palantir and Heritage Foundation and others who are actively working to make peoples’ lives worse? They’d get a very Canadian “no, sorry*, I would prefer not”.

        • Canada has like 5 meanings for ‘sorry’, including “I’m saddened you can’t be better than you are.”

    probably dangerous ones, like right wingers in red country. like oil rigs, crab fishing,etc. of course the opportunities in those areas are lacking otherwise.

    Anything public facing or anything that has me carrying around a gun. Both are absolute no-gos in my mind.

      My wife works in Accounts Receivable, and now manages a team who talks nicely to people about paying that debt over others, so their essential products arrive on time. She’s an absolute sweetie and I don’t know how she does it, but she’s excelled for a decade at it now.

      travel to the US

      They round up 12 people a month from New Zealand. NEW ZEALAND! Anyone hating on the nicest country on the planet really has mental issues they need to get solved.

    Retail. Done it for 4 years and got treated like absolute shit by customers, especially during the pandemic. I got told off a few times for speaking back to customers but I think now I’d probably struggle not to hit them. I’d be sacked very quickly

      But this seems like something that could be tolerated at the right price point. It’s a price point they would never pay, but your reason for working it isn’t a moral or ethical reason.

      I learned at a young age that I’m not cut out for retail. I can fake it for a minute or two, but I’ve got a short fuse and a sailor mouth.

      This one doesn’t feel inherently evil. There are some great HR reps where I work now, but I don’t work for a company that’s trying to milk us dry.
