This is so funny. It's nothing new and many of you might say it's as good as a law of the universe. But it's still funny.
Credit Card
===========
This ABC Bank (not their real name) once offered me a credit card. Fine. I faxed them the first 2 pages of my employment letter.
"But you have 8 more pages right?", they asked
"Yup, all the typical rubbish. My pay details are on the first two pages"
After arguing, the caller acknowledge my point and hanged up.
Few days later, my application was rejected.
Now this bank has returned to me, offering free lifetime membership. Almost no questions asked; They still want my payslip. But I know they know; And they know I know.
Jobs
====
XYZ (not their real name) is a recruitment agency that posts a lot of job openings for SAP. When I was fresh in my second job, I sent my application to them via JobStreet; I was ignored twice over a period of a year. I took the point and never sent to them again.
Recently I updated my skillsets on JobStreet. They picked it up almost immediately and called.
Me: "Sorry, not looking for a job at the moment"
For the bank, I can live with it.
For the job agency.. Ho ho. No way I think.
