    It’s sickening to me how people can take advantage of other people on a regular basis and be able to sleep at night.

    I agree with how ruthless people can be. To think even a middle or high schooler can be looking innocently on the web for a job and fall victim to these idiots.

    There’s an easy way to avoid being vicitimized if you take the time to do proper research. all you have to do is stick to trusted sites if you are filling out burger king or mcdonalds applications or whatever else.

    The people who fall victim to these types of disgusting pieces of trash are the ones who are desperate to get a job. /those are the types of people they are hunting for which is why it’s always an easy target.
