— Older Voters Are the Future of American Politics For at least the next few
elections, liberal youngsters will be increasingly outnumbered by their
conservative elders – Gerard Baker (DIERSEN: Those who want Republican
candidates to lose tell them to dump older voters, and especially to dump older
voters like me who are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic,
Republican, White, male, non-poor, gun owners, German American, and those whose
ancestors have been in America for a long time. I should write a book about
Republican activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major
donors, political consultants, etc. in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton
Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who have dumped older voters like
me.)

BUSINESS NEWS DAILY
— How Can You Tell if a Job Candidate Is Lying About Their Credentials? – Adam
C. Uzialko
https://www.businessnewsdaily.com/11314-background-check-candidate-credentials.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When
employers don’t want to conduct candidate verification themselves or feel it
would be better handled by a professional third party, there are background
check services. These companies are available to screen candidates, usually for
a per-candidate fee, and provide background check reports for the employer’s
review. Background checks generally review criminal history at the federal and
state level, as well as verify past employment and educational attainment.
“Manual verification of job candidates, especially in high-volume
situations, may be impractical,” Chancey said. “For best results,
employers should consider partnering with a reliable background screening
vendor. Look for a vendor whose screening platform is easy to use and takes out
the hassle of verifying multiple candidates, integrates with other HR systems
such as the applicant tracking system, and whose capabilities can be customized
to the needs of your organization.”)

— 5 common career mistakes to avoid at all costs – DANDAN ZHU (DIERSEN: Given
your demographics, what harmed your career? The following harmed my career in
the federal government: I did not become a veteran. I did not become a
Democrat. I did not become a yes-man. I refused to help my Democrat superiors
and supervisors get rid of their employees because they were Republican, White,
male, and/or non-veteran and had not made GS-13 (currently $98,198) by age 25,
GS-14 (currently $116,040) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $136,495) by age 35, and
Senior Executive Service (currently $165,500) by age 40. I complained about
political affiliation discrimination. I complained about reverse
discrimination. I complained about age discrimination. I complained about retaliation.
In 1988, when I was 40 years old, I became an active member in a class action
lawsuit that charged my superiors with reverse discrimination, age
discrimination, and retaliation.)
