It isn't. Most people only pay tax on their income, which is already sent to the IRS. Just pre-file it and ask the payee to approve it. If you have more complicated taxes, you can just decline the pre-filed and file your own, like you

For most people, you won't have these issues. For those that do, what difference does it make to fix it vs making it all on their own?

You are acting like owning a home entitles you to dictate how other people get to live. It does not. Owning a home shouldn't allow you to dictate that someone cannot build a home near you. Unfortunately it does in some places, but th

I worked there and met Feras and only have good memories of the place. It's a very difficult industry to be in and it sucks that fair criticism gets mixed with a hate train. Feras himself seemed very motivated to make the company and i

But aren't those low-paid, high skill jobs likely to be unionized? Only issue I see with that term is that union affects pay.

You hit the main issue with selinux: most documentation is aimed at policy developers and not end users. Your main issue was that you were trying to adapt the reference policy without knowing its inner workings.

In my experience it does not matter if you have a weakness. Just acknowledge it and move on. The only reason someone would fail so late in an interview imo would be either we found someone better or the applicant didn't acknowledge tha
