I haven’t been asked for a reference in years. No one asks if you’re currently employed because you don’t want to warn your current job that you’re interviewing

I haven’t been asked for a reference in years. No one asks if you’re currently employed because you don’t want to warn your current job that you’re interviewing. Does anyone see that request regularly?
- twelve40 3y ago* just because you personally haven't done something in years doesn't mean that burning bridges won't come back to bite you someday * who said anything about currently employed, what??? good relationships are forever * if you use your imagination, you can easily find other consequences of leaving with drama, like not being invited to a new startup your ex-colleagues launch * you personally might enjoy burning bridges and get away with it so far, doesn't mean it a good practice. When you are e.g. in the layoff shitter, every tiny bit helps.
