The last several jobs I have taken, they've wanted a scan of it for tax purposes.

I think it's ironic how this super private personal number that is unique to you and not to be shared is what you have to share with every job, college, financial institution, etc.

This is why I think that temporary SSNs should be a thing . It would be a number that links to your real SSN and would be used to verify your identity, but would stop working after a day or two. That way if a company has a data breach, any SSNs that get stolen would no longer work.
