I really want to say this conspiracy theory is nuts. However, Astronomer just hired Gwyneth Paltrow as a spokesperson, and the CEO announced he's suing Cold Play for ruining his life. These people are working overtime to keep this story alive. So, maybe Aparajita has a point?

The cringe is not the actual post but what the post is about.

Is a 5 year gap really that detrimental to one's career? Doesn't taking care of children and aging parents show additional skills of time management, emotional maturity, prioritization? And despite that, she still managed to keep her career skills updated? What was the perceived risk of a 5 year gap?

Hey if you’re “open to work” you probably shouldn’t let your network and other people know on a professional networking platform where jobs are posted and recruiters look for talent according to this guy…I thought an “open to work” banner simply meant that you’re “open to work”.

Like… why though? You didn’t prove a thing. You came in uninterested, so everything you said and did thereafter is basically irrelevant.

Absolute cringe 😬…this would’ve been way more entertaining if you actually cared and then had a tragic flop. But let’s be real, the recruiter probably clocked the ‘meh’ vibes right away. I mean did you try to bring up the role?! Lol ofc not - you were there for free vibes and water haha

Thank you for the cringey mindless post.
