If a job application asks for references is it wrong to put down "None of your goddamn business"?

What gives an employer the right to know who my personal friends and acquaintances are? You don't see me asking the interviewer what he does with his wife on the weekends.

F&K	Are you high? Hello... it is a reference of character. You would never get hired that way. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

cool dude	heck yeah you should never use lewd language when applying for a job. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Stevie N	Maybe they want to see if you have any friends? Jeez, do you want a job or not? If you go in there with THAT attitude you will stay unemployed. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

green_palm_tree	No, nothing is wrong, if you really are not interested in getting this job. Good luck in your job search! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Judy	Sure, that's OK - that'll get you a job. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Sherry C	No it's not wrong, you just don't want the job that bad. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

raina_vissora	Unless this is your first job, you should put professional references... not friends. They're looking for someone who can evaluate you as an employee. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Cameron	You can put down whatever you want, but I wouldn't count on being hired. An employer wants to check references to see if you are trustworthy and a hard worker. Those are things that most any employer is going to look for in a new hire. If you don't want to put anything, that is probably your right, but it is just as much your potential employers right to pick another candidate for the position. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

michr	go ahead.......................... the line for food stamps and section 8 housing forms to the right. what gives the employer the right to ask is the need to weed out applicants with attitudes like you SEEM to have. a job is not a right and employers may use whatever tools the have available to determine who they want to hire. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
