This jives with everything my friends who did work for him have told me about their experiences.

Umm, you might want to look up the meaning of a word before you use it.

I know that it's a common mistake among the uneducated, but there is no verb "to jive." Rather, you should have used the verb "to jibe" (= be consistent).

That's one hell of an argument to hang your hat on! Some people don't speak Jibe.

‘I know that it’s a common mistake among the uneducated, but there is no verb “to jive.”’

Are you trying to jive me?

[P.O.E.]

but there is no verb "to jive."

Every sentence has as noun & a verb. "Hand" is a noun. Therefore "jive" must be a verb, q.v.: "Hand Jive"
