Not this again. Perhaps this is cultural, but writing such a self-centered document and then expecting people to read it wouldn't be acceptable in Europe. At least not in my experience.
Especially weirdly invoking unhelpful & simplistic racial stereotypes like "I am that archetype of the 'high expectations Asian parent'"
- ReactiveJelly 6y agoPretty weird for me in America too. A lot of people criticized Richard Stallman's "rider" [1] for the same reason, but at least there I can understand you're hiring someone you don't know personally for one engagement where you also have to get them room and board. Employer-employee is much simpler.
- doteka 6y agoYeah, big yikes from me in Europe as well. I honestly don’t know if I could keep a straight face if I was shown a document like this, definitely my opinion of the manager would drop through the floor. Generally, when someone says “he/she comes with a manual” that is not a compliment.
- EmilioMartinez 6y ago>unhelpful & simplistic Self-describing like that says a lot about a person. How is that unhelpful? What's the problem with simplicity? It was an opening statement for a long description about her personality, how could it have been more nuanced?
