I Would Like To Thank All The Liars Out There

If there is one thing I have never done, it is lie on an application or a resume.  As I’ve been doing some research, it appears that up to 40% of people do lie, embellish, completely fabricate things.

You people who do this are assholes.

I have never, with the exception of the military, of course, had to go through a background check.  Never.  I’ve always just got the job.  But now?  I have to go through a background check.  Personally I find it highly intrusive and I don’t particularly like someone poking around asking about my character, of all things.  I don’t want to hear some bullshit explanation about why companies do this because I don’t care. 

It’s because of those fucking liars out there that I have to go through this. 

And how long does it fucking take anyway?  Seriously!  This is ridiculous.  Can I just start working already?!  THANKEW!
