Off for fingerprinting! I got the job :D

a reply to: jude11

As I mentioned, I was missing something. Thanks for pointing it out.

So if someone had gotten a job it's OK to be an ass, but if it's a single mother struggling to get the same job you apologize?

You also failed to see my congrats on the job but only questioning BofA.

I think Zazz did a god job calling you out for being rude and politicizing what another member shared as positive news.

I must be missing something here.

Doesn't this make for being part of the problem rather than a solution?

Was there something I missed? I mean congrats on a job but I'm lost here. Especially BofA.

That's what you said. So someone getting a job makes them part of the problem. You sounded completely disingenuous with your congratulating, and then went on to to hammer it in that working for Bank Of America was being a part of the problem (a problem that you didn't have the time to even address). Especially BofA. Go ahead and explain how that wasn't a dig.

Tell us, what changed. What now makes it OK for the OP to work for a bank? Because she's a single mother? Somehow your disdain is waived? What if it was a single father? Is it some sort of minority status that exonerates people from being a part of a problem (that you're too lazy to share with the group) when disparaging members? So is a family man allowed to work for a bank without being a part of the problem if he has a wife? Is there a tier system being part of the problem is based off of? Do you think it's OK to work at a bank if you only make a certain amount of money?

Apparently the moral authority is an internet stranger. You can tell us what jobs we should work without knowing our circumstances. Please tell me what I should do for a living, Tell me how to rebel against the big companies from your internet connection! You clearly know everything and are aware of all our lowly circumstances. Should I stop this life of crime? I'm loathe to admit I recognize the IRS as being legitimate! I've paid *gasp* some speeding tickets. I know I'm a horrible person because I don't just ignore the local laws when it's inconvenient!

Instead of being nasty, and then getting nasty again when you're called out on it, try admitting you were in the wrong. I know you're smart, be smart enough to admit you were being a dick.

That sounds lovely and thank you but I"m a size 1/2 lol

That is why I have a hard time finding suit pants or skirts in my size. I have found some Petite Sophisticate ones which I LOVE but that store was for short people like me. LOL

Haha if you only knew how I was about this particular bank for YEARS. I wouldn't even step foot into one. Heck when I went in I felt like I was going to burn or something lol. Now I work for them. Yea they are one of the most hated banks but they pay well and it's a good career opportunity while i go to school for aeronautics. I needed something that fit my schedule with my son and this does perfectly! Plus benefits!! WOOHOO!

As usual a question on ATS is not allowed to be just that, a question. Always either an insult, conspiracy or lie.

And as usual, you seem to be getting aroused by nothing.

My question was an honest one. Why would someone choose to work for a corporate monster who has caused so much pain on a Global scale? If I received an answer such as "I am unemployed, need to put food on the table, raise kids"...ok, I get it. If I get an answer of "I LOVE BofA!...different story now isn't it?

BTW, I said congrats on the job because many don't have one. NOT congratulating because of a woman as I had no idea of the sex of the OP. So I really couldn't care less.

Give it a break kitty.

Congratulations. I too have just started (3 weeks ago) a new job. I love it and hope you love yours. This is my first day job in 10 years and I was worried I'd struggle but I've taken to it like a duck to water. Good luck for Monday! !
