sorry to say, but this kind of question gets asked constantly in every part of my life. Suddenly the interviewer is now your personal arbiter. You're living your sentencing all over again as someone youve never met is now deciding if you get to keep your apartment, buy a car, or get a job. It makes you feel intensely vulnerable and uncomfortable. Its one of the reasons I just dont look for anything anymore.
- HeyLaughingBoy 6y agoYou shouldn't be sorry. I thought it was a pretty rude question myself. Curiosity shouldn't be an excuse for being a jackhole.
- Udik 6y agoNot that I want to discuss about manners but, after someone told you, unrequested, some very personal stuff, I don't find it impolite to ask some further detail- although I accept it if he doesn't want to answer. The question in itself wasn't out of idle curiosity but because the sentencing seems disproportionate. I wanted to double check this before launching in a tirade against the US justice :)
- HeyLaughingBoy 6y agoFair enough. Asking personal questions out of idle curiosity is something I tend to be sensitive to, so I apologize if I seemed overly harsh.
