  My company has explicitly stated multiple times if I have my profile stating I work for them on social media and make remarks that could potentially harm the company, including but not limited to... you can and will be terminated. They went over   Funny Yes I’m Old But I Saw Eddie Van Halen On Stage Shirt  this with everyone and continue to every single year. It's a requirement for employment, and is quite common. "Cancel culture (or call-out culture) is a modern form of ostracism in which someone is thrust out of social or professional circles - either online on social media, in the real world, or both. Those who are subject to this ostracism are said to be "canceled."" Its a relatively new idea, the last couple of decades where corporations have dumbed us down enough to believe we have to care about what we say while being employed by them.   We dont but capitalism is twisting our perception slowpy but surely. The idea that I have to have a predetermined set...

  Maybe they do those checks to the  Top  I Took My Senior Trip To South Vietnam Shirt   give people time to think about adopting a pet,and possibly change their mind about adopting. It annoys me because i know I would never return a pet to a shelter because I just couldn't do that. But obviously not everyone thinks like me. Definitely, my friend spent weeks trying to adopt from a cats protection organisation but they kept saying the cats weren’t suited to their household. So she went to some random shelter and left with a lovely kitty the same day Exactly...I tried to adopt an old three legged pit bull that obviously needed some love and care but since I lived in an apartment they wouldn't let me have her. Even though with being very old and 3-legged she would have been plenty happy with a few walkies a day and wouldn't need a giant fenced in yard like they wanted. Hurt my heart. I still think about her years later. Hope she found somewhere warm and loving to s...

  So we bought a cat from a newspaper ad, wee gypsy is still having a great time up at my mums. Moral of the  Premium Be Nice To The Veteran Santa Is Watching Christmas Shirt  story, cat protection people are too protective of the cats in their care. We just got a kitten from a FB free pets group. I had intended to go through a shelter or rescue, and I was ok with making a donation or whatever to support their cause, but after seeing what they require for the application process I gave up. Application, interview, vet reference, personal references, home visit, fees, contract, agreement to make social media posts tagging the shelter, etc. I mean I get doing some due diligence, but they are so overboard that it is a disservice to the animals they are supposed to be helping. Same. I almost bought a dog from a breeder because the shelters around me are insane. I finally adopted one from a rescue about 2hrs away because they didn't require me to sign over my first child to get...

  This will likely get lost, but I have to reply and I hope the  Nice Karbon Knight Knight Movement Black Horse Shirt  it reaches a few people. A rescue - a non-profit 501c3, including Humane Societies and SPCAs - are generally pickier, and able to create their own rules and criteria for adopters, including interviews, references, and sometimes higher adoption fees.   We absolutely allow outdoor cat adoptions, and in fact have many cats who would prefer outdoor or indoor/outdoor homes, and would be delighted to have more people come in to adopt such cats from us! Please, if you've been denied at a rescue, still look into adoption from your local municipal shelter! A municipal shelter - your local county or area Animal Control facility, if they conduct adoptions - are much less confining, sometimes have lower adoption fees, but as a trade-off generally have less post-adoption support. I run one of these. I remember my mum tryna adopt a cat off our local shelter when w...

  Exactly this. When I would interview potential adopters for the  Premium Norwegian Black Metal Matters Shirt   rescue I volunteered at, I always took into account that some people simply don’t know about the cons to some of the decisions we ask about (ie indoor/outdoor, declawing etc.) Of course we never wanted people to have their cats outdoors or declaw them, but I always understood that some people simply hadn’t learned why these things were so harmful to the cat. If they seemed like they wanted to learn and understood and agreed to our conditions, I would continue with the possibility of adoption. But if they tried to argue with why they wanted to let them out/declaw them, I would tell the adoption coordinator th I've never been asked a question when adopting an animal. Also, my city picks up strays and fixes them, trims the corner off their ear to mark them and then releases them. Some organizations/shelters are less strict. The thing your city does is called ...

  The   Nice I Made The Stuffing Shirt   lifespan of an outdoor cat is about half of that of an indoor cat. House cats are domesticated pets. If they're let outside, one day they won't come back - hit by a car, killed by an animal, etc. The thing is with a lot of interviewees is that if they say they want to let the cat out and the interviewer says thats not okay, a lot of applicants will be kind of dismissive and say "yeah okay I won't let the cat out" but they won't actually be careful about shutting their doors/keeping the cats inside. So that might have been why the interviewer your girlfriend had was so harsh about it. Most rescue organizations have a strict indoor only cat policy because outdoor cats tend to get sick more frequently, hurt (cars or other animals), and have shorter life expectancy. Some volunteers will react strongly to it and reject someone who says they will let the cat outside without providing any information. The interviewer should ha...

  She opened the door, I pointed out her cat wanted to be let in and she replied “I think you are scaring my cat”. I was like woah if I didn’t come over your cat would still be out in the snow by now (it’s a domestic short hair so not very cold resistant). I am moving soon so thank god no Cats didn’t evolve in North America, and they don’t fit into the ecosystem.  Funny Hakuna Ma Toddler It Means No Relaxing For The Rest Of Your Days Shirt   They’re top-notch predators that kill for fun, and nothing evolved to deal with that.
