If they can fabricate a good CV, that's good enough for me.Originally posted by Pondlife View PostYou are working at a client's site and are asked your opinion on a potential candidate for a role . The quality of the work produced by this candidate will have a direct impact on your deliverables.
Somehow you acertain that the candidate is a poster on here and for your own reasons you think this person is a complete tool. This opinion is based on things they've posted on here only and you have no idea if this is just a sockpuppet, internet persona or anything about their non CUK existence. It maybe that they come across as an idiot/racist/keyboardwarrior/tonyblairapologist/CAGWfanatic/denier whatever, you just think they're a tool. Their CV, however fabricated, reads as a good fit for the role.

You may find the exact opposite - that female posters pretend to be male because they don't want to face a barrage of misogynistic comments that they may face if certain people thought they were female.Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostNo. As there are no female posters on here. They are all male posters pretending to be women.Comment

Hope that their online persona is completely different from their real-life one, and not let it get in the way.Originally posted by Pondlife View PostWhat do you do?
