Nepotism is present in virtually every company, because it’s usually cheaper and more reliable than hiring a random person. Depending on the position, the candidate may not even need to be qualified at all. So you just get your partner’s cousin, who they are in constant contact with. They will do their best, because it’s in their own best interest + if they fuck up, it’ll be family drama for the next 3 years.
I’d say 90% of all job offers require either no specialized skills, or skills that can be easily learned in the first 3 months of the job. So it makes perfect sense to get a reliable family member, who then you can train and have an overall better employee, who is likely to stay at the company for longer. Furthermore, all the money you pay them stays in the family, so it’s kind of like you haven’t given anything away.
Judges should be using ouija boards to communicate with people killed by death penalty. “So you were guilty, right?” To make sure everyone gets a chance to appeal the decision.
