Here’s the bunch of real excerpts from real references and job evaluations of real people.
It’s hard to imagine that somebody was good enough to get the job in the first place and managed to get such references later.
What would you do in order not to get those 😉 and what should one do if that’s a little too late?

Enjoy!

1. Since my last report, this employee has reached rock bottom and has started to dig.
