Why does every single internet math problem just come down to pemdas and why are so many people confused by an elementary school concept.

30/3 = 10 horses

18- 10 = 8/2 = 4 horseshoes

4-2 = 2 boots

2 boots + (10 horses x 4 horseshoes) = ??????

You are almost spot on. Its Addition and Subtraction.


Just need to clarify that because this thread is showing that it's still not understood.

Who you hire is a reflection of the type of manager you are.

And yeah, you can turn lemons into lemonade, but you can't make lemonade with tomatoes

If you don't hire right, you will end up micromanaging, babysitting and being stressed the fukk out.

Let this be a lesson. If you all work in HR or are in charge of staffing.... this is why something so simply can be highly affective.

I never do assessments. I think the company is wack off rip because they are looking for robots and not people who think outside the box.

I'm an Accountant by trade but just became a Treasurer. I was looking for strictly remote work, but some jobs (very few in my industry) required assessments. They were 30 or 60 minutes long. I thought to myself that why would I do this shyt without getting paid.

My point though was I saw these same jobs re-advertised again within a year. So I'm figuring they hired someone that obviously passed all of their assessment and just quit. I know this isn't a long assessment but I wouldn't do it because there are plenty of jobs in my industry that don't do it and I question the culture.
