    I don't comment much, but I like to read them. That said, the "imposter" claim bugs the tar out of me. What you said was funny, but frits was clearly miffed for whatever reason. And yes, I did go through the effort of tracking the conversation even frits deleted it.
    I certainly don't mind calling him an impostor, and I won't stop doing so. Some time ago (just before I registered), someone started making really stupid comments (recent example), but doing so under my name (I quickly registered my name when I realized this was happening). It's already caused some confusion among people with whom I've argued. I'm not sure why he uses the same handle and I don't really care, aside from the minor annoyance it creates for me; I usually just ignore it. Sometimes I respond to a comment chain that involves him and I make sure to add "(unregistered)" in the quote so as not to confuse anyone following it, but I usually only do this to clear up an argument or make a joke.

    As for frits' comment, on occasion a long string of comments will start, where someone starts a joke, then a mass of unregistered comments posted under registered usernames follows, each adding to the same lame joke (unable to add a reference here, since the mods typically delete them). The comments are in rapid succession, and are obviously the same idiot or small circle of idiots repeatedly posting under different names. I believe this is what frits was referring to in his comment.

    Does it inevitably follow that someone who has committed a crime in the past will commit more crimes in the future? Of course not. But surely it doesn't take a genius to figure out that he's more likely to.

    Is everyone who has ever been sent to prison guilty? Of course not. For that matter, is everyone who has never been sent to prison innocent? Of course not. But an employer has to use the information he has available. I'm sure there are people who got through college by cheating and there are prople who never went to college who know more than any college grad. That doesn't make it irrational to use a college degree as a criterion in hiring. I'm sure that every possible hiring criterion has some flaw, some way that a person not meeting that criterion could still be a better candidate. So what do you conclude from that? That we do the best we can with what information we have? Or that we pick the candidate to hire at random?

    I'll bet there are many employers in the U.S. who would be willing to give an ex-con a second chance, except for one thing: The employer is legally responsible for the actions of his employees. If you hire an ex-con and he embezzles money from a client or rapes a co-worker, you, the employer, are legally liable.

    "I guess the moral of the story is, if you owe child support, man up and pay it, especially if your trade is IT." Wow. That's pretty heartless and ignorant. Our child support laws are draconion, our family courts are clandestine, and the entire process is grossly unfair to fathers. In the U.S., we have abolished debtors prison...with the exception of child support debts. We order fathers to pay support based upon potential income, with no regard to their actual income and no adjustments for when they lose their jobs through no fault of their own. The fact is, an unmarried non-custodial fathers pay more support (adjusted for income) than non-custodial mothers, and non-custodial mothers are considerably less likely to pay the support they owe than are fathers. And at the same time, our courts do absolutely NOTHING to ensure that mothers comply with visitation orders. The Deadbeat Dad is a myth, and we as a society desperately need to start addressing the real problems and coming up with real, equitable solutions.

    Yes, all of those questions are illegal - not illegal to ask though. You can ask anything you want in an interview, but there's a whole class of stuff you aren't supposed to use to make the hiring decision. However, if you asked it, the assumption is that you're going to use the information, and that it might influence your decision in some subtle way even if it's not 'officially' used in a hiring decision. You are much better off not asking. And yes, if someone asked me any of those questions they would be hearing from a lawyer.
    You'd honestly try to litigate? That's ridiculous, I'd just move on to the next interview and forget about it. What would be the charge? Would you try to sue them for money or what? Forgive me, I don't really understand the US culture of litigation, but I don't see you could legitimately claim for compensation so what's the point? What's your endgame?
    I never understood that, myself. If you get turned down on the basis of an illegal question, would you sue for them to give you the job anyway? That'd make for one hostile work environment.

Short of that the company's lawyer would simply say, "The question may have been...inappropriate...but was not a factor in the hiring decision" and you'd be out of luck. You'd still owe your lawyer a bundle, of course... Moral of story: if a company asks questions like that, be glad you don't work there.

    It's a perfect example of the circular reasoning I was criticizing - he's been in jail, therefore he must be bad.

    Regardless I'm reasonably certain that it's illegal to discriminate on hiring based on marital status.
    It is actually illegal just to ask the question. You are not allowed to ask if somebody is married, sexual preference, has children, nationality or religion.

    It is actually legal to ask about nationality -- or, more accurately, to ask whether the person is a US citizen. And it's certainly legal (and in fact technically mandatory) to ask if they can legally work in the US.

    In some industries, citizenship may be significant beyond just whether or not they are legally able to work. If your product is controlled under ITAR (export restricted), then you can't let foreign nationals see it, because that constitutes an export. But I think all that's relevant is the person's citizenship, not the nationality of their birth.

    While it may not apply in this situation (19 mostly 1-2 month jobs in 9 years says a lot), I'm going to go to bat and say that it's entirely possible for someone to fall behind on their child support payments because they've been laid off. The courts are very unforgiving about this, depending on what state you're in (thinking in terms of the USA here). I've read reports of people who have been laid off, been without work for months due to a crappy economy, and been told by the courts that it doesn't matter - they had better find some way to shit the money or they're going to jail. Nevermind that they're broke and can demonstrate how they've been laid off. Nevermind that the mother has gone on to marry someone financially secure so the child is in no danger.

    That said, the reason the courts are so harsh in this area is that it would be entirely possible, and easy, to just get yourself fired and then draw welfare and have no way to support your kids. Some would rather do that than give money to their ex which they hate.

    Meanwhile, their ex who is also on welfare is getting extra state dollars because she has custody of the kid. That's good, because she needs the extra money to buy cigarettes. No need to use that money for groceries because the kid can eat at school for free.

    totally agree that people should take care of their kids; however, I have seen more parents who are together and involved screw up their kids because they are more concerned about themselves than taking care of their kids. I am talking about people taking 4 kids (all less than 8 years old) to a rated R movie at 10:00 pm. Or when I have seen parents let their 4 year old out-weigh a 10 year old. You do not have to fail supplying a check to be a bad parent. And before you jump to conclusions, I am a father of 3, where I take care of my kids.

    Maybe if men and women took responsibility and put their children first then we would have fewer screwed up kids. Maybe if people stopped having children before they were ready we would have fewer screwed up kids. and maybe if women stopped sleeping with idiotic, douchebag, jerks, we would have fewer screwed up kids.

    Old, but I was trolling through the comments out of boredom and saw this inaccuracy.

    We order fathers to pay support based upon potential income, with no regard to their actual income and no adjustments for when they lose their jobs through no fault of their own.

    This is not true. While laws on child support vary from state to state, support is based on one of three mathematical models: 1) the Incomes Shares model, (2) the Percentage of Income model, or (3) the Melson Formula model. While these models vary on complexity, they are remarkably fair in apportionment.

    If you lose your job, have your attorney file for an adjustment with the court. The court will then recalculate and issue a new order with changed amounts according to the formula.

    In none of these formulas is support based on "potential" income. It's based on current income and, if financial data is required, past income via tax return information.

    The fact is, an unmarried non-custodial fathers pay more support (adjusted for income) than non-custodial mothers, and non-custodial mothers are considerably less likely to pay the support they owe than are fathers.

    Independent studies on this have actually shown this is false, as all current basis for support in the USA is determined solely by income without consideration of custodianship.

    And at the same time, our courts do absolutely NOTHING to ensure that mothers comply with visitation orders.

    This is because visitation is a completely separate issue from maintenance and neither has any bearing on the other. If a mother is not complying with a visitation order, then you need to file a complaint with the court on that issue and have them compel compliance with the visitation order. The court does not monitor that for you. Support and maintenance are irrelevant to visitation issues in a legal sense.

    "Family-Friendly" shouldn't mean that you are REQUIRED to have a family! How weird. Does he want to get together and compare notes on childbirth, sex techniques, etc.?

    Quote: "I don't think that word means what you think it means". (The word, of course, is "Inconceivable")

    What he means is "Are you gay", without explicitly saying it, which I presume is illegal. Although knowing how the USA works, probably not.

    He should have smashed that homophobic dude's face into a bloody pulp.

    So, are you available? Could you send me some full body shots?

    The two of you have just proven that you know that that employer is indeed your true superior. When you find a person whose allegiance is to something other than the culture of the times, you threaten them with violence. That is the way of the coward.
