inThe HR lady at my old job told me 60% of people lie on their resume and I can't stop thinking about it
What counts as a lie though, like flat out saying you have a degree you don't have, or just stretching the dates a little? Because I feel like those are super different things and she's lumping them all together. Everyone I know rounds up their job duties a bit or leaves off a short stint they got fired from, and that's not the same as making up a whole job. If the number is really 60 percent I'd want to know what survey that came from and how they worded the question. Feels like you could get any number you want depending on how you ask it. Did she say where she got that stat or was it just something she heard somewhere?

inThought a non-compete was unbreakable until a plaintiff's lawyer in Austin broke down 2 words for me
Oh man, that definition gap is where these things always die. If the contract never says what "soliciting" means, the judge basically gets to decide, and a lot of them read it narrow, like you actually have to reach out to your old clients first. So yeah, sloppy wording is usually the whole ballgame.

inMy sister said my weekly spread looked like a grocery list and honestly she was right
My sister said the same thing about mine back in June, called it a wall of chores. I used to jam like 11 or 12 things into a single day box and cross them off like a maniac, and yeah I got stuff done, but I also felt sick every Sunday night staring at the week ahead. Cut it to 5 tasks a day plus a little notes space and the stress dropped a lot, though I still feel guilty when something rolls over. Fancy spreads with doodles and color coding are for sure procrastination for me, I spend an hour making it pretty instead of doing the actual thing. Packed spreads kept me busy but half that busy was just moving stuff around, not real progress.
