HARVARD BUSINESS REVIEW
— 6 Red Flags That Keep Good Candidates from Getting Hired. DD: From what I see, ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, the more of the following that you are, the less likely that you will be hired: conservative, Republican, American, White, male, older, non-veteran, non-poor, Protestant, German American, and/or if you have ancestors who had been in America for a lone time. I should write about that.

INC.
— DD: What did you do that your superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates did not do? Mine did not earn job-related master’s degrees, professional certifications, and a professional license like I did. Instead. they focused on helping their superiors get rid of their employees like me who were conservative, Republican, American, White, male, older, non-veteran, non-poor, Protestant, German American, and/or had ancestors who had been in America for a lone time. I should write about that. I would focus on those who took the most/biggest adverse actions against me.

DD: If you got a student loan, a) you did not work your way through college, b) your GPA should have been higher, c) you should have gotten a job that required a college degree faster, and d) your pay should have been higher. I did not get a student loan. My GPA was lower because I spent far too many hours washing dishes and delivering mail instead of studying. I did not get a job that required a college degree until 10 months after I graduated and my salary was only $55,850/year in today’s dollars.

GOVERNMENT EXECUTIVE
— House Republicans advance plan to undermine civil service protections.

AXIOS
— DD: Do you know any past or present federal employees or retirees? I was a federal employee for almost 30 years. I have been a federal retiree for 28 years. I should write about the attitude that people have toward federal employees and retirees. Overwhelmingly, they believe that federal employees are overpaid, their benefits are too generous, and that federal pensions are too generous. In my defense, while I was a federal employee, I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree, three job-related master’s degrees, six job-related professional certifications, and a job-related professional license. In today’s dollars, my federal salary increased from $19.37/hour to $153,151/year. My Civil Service Retirement System Pension is $66,780/year.
