Yeah, well maybe if you stopped eating avocado toast, you could afford that expensive as fuck diamond!

UltraMagnus0001,

maybe they know about blood diamonds and don’t care about shiny things that serve no purpose.

Restaldt,

Im almost certain eternally filling out myworkday applications will be my personal hell

TheDeepState,

Don’t forget to answer every question on the application.

See the fucking resume attached.

Aaaaand I didn’t get the job.

Kase,

I remember applying online for work study jobs as a freshman. Every single application required me to provide three references, but I could only give two (maybe that sounds weird, but just take my word for it lol). I ended up just filling the third with N/As, except they had to fit the input requirements so it was weird stuff like “notanemailaddress@empty.com”. I put a note in the comments at the end to explain it, but I only heard back from two of the dozens of positions I applied for, and I couldn’t help but think that was a reason. But idk, what else was I supposed to do? ಠಿ⁠_⁠ಠ

It all worked out tho, and I absolutely love the job I have now. And thank fuck, I’ll have no shortage of references next time. Thanks for reading if you got this far lmao.

petrol_sniff_king,

I like the job I have now, too, but I barely got it. If I ever want to leave, I have no idea who to ask to be a reference.

Rosco,

Other gemstones are not getting enough love. I would love to have a cool topaz ring.

stringere,

My wedding band is titanium and wood ($17). My wife’s is silver and cubic zirconia cast as Nenya, Galadriel’s ring from LotR and made by WETA Workshop, who did the movie props ($75).

So much cooler than gold and diamonds => 3 months salary, at least for us.

rockerface,

I’ve heard there are dope synthetic gemstones that are also cheaper to produce

explodicle,

The LinkedIn will continue until a resume standard is accepted.

notaviking,

It’s a boring stone that is basically just very hard to scratch and it’s other thing is being expensive. It is basically the most unimaginative gem you can buy. It’s not even really rare

Cuz why would I buy an allotropic modification of carbon, it’s all around me. Hell, I’m made from it.

Investing in gold on the other hand… yeah, that makes sense.

FluffyPotato,

Even if you got money for jewelry why pick the boring pointy piece of glass? There are gems and materials so much cooler than diamonds. My personal favourite is jade.

Classic, you can tell because the people in it look like 2013 hipsters

Oderus,

That job application issue has been around a long time. It’s not a millenial ssue.
