re: #360 MsJ

Who does this? I don’t sign a contract without reading it and I’m certainly not putting my own reputation on the line for someone I don’t explicitly feel deserves it. Someone I’m not in regular touch with? Never.

This is all basic job networking stuff. At some point you get used as a job reference or have to ask someone else to be one for you. Kavanaugh asked a LOT of people for personal references because SCOTUS is a big deal.

You cannot possibly know everything about a person you act as a reference for and likewise nobody can know all of you history when they agree to be a reference for you.
