A chuckle about references
I saw this blurb in the free Flag Live paper last week.
"Authorities searching for Sharon Platt after she was accused of stealing $5,000 while working as an office manager for Murphy Motors in Williston, N.D., located the suspect in Pittsburgh, where she applied for a job and listed Murphy Motors as a reference. Williams County Sheriff's Capt. Bob Stancel said Platt was arrested after the owner of Murphy Motors reported her whereabouts when the Pennsylvania company called to check her reference."
You should always check with a company before using them as a reference to make sure they remember you and that it will be a good one. However, use some common sense! Jaimie Hall Bruzenak
