I was that guy, extra hours for free, working when you need to take a dump trying to get the customer back online, always willing to do what was asked and we got shit on. Too many of us worked our asses off, giving a lot of our time to companies that didn't reciprocate, the younger generations saw how the previous generation was treated so they are not going to bust their ass either. You might be a good employer, but too many deserve the shitty reputation they got.
Yeah, Anon @ 5:33...that SOUNDS good on the surface, but how many of your employees left because the compensation wasn't worth the level of work that YOU expected. My experience has been that (all things being equal) companies that balance their wages with the workload they expect don't have to keep "help wanted" ads up. People tend to be pretty loyal to employers who offer reasonable money for reasonable responsibilities.
There’s a saying that I believe is common to all the Trades, Eight for eight. You pay for eight hours of work, you get eight hours of work. No more, no less. JFM
if "employment expectations" are work for free, skip breaks, and never get any appreciation or a decent raise, then say that up front. otherwise, how do we know to tell you to take the job and stuff it up your ass?
#13, Still remember. my grammar school's janitor's name. He would have the boiler room door open so us who had AM paper routes could get warm before class. Also showed how to crack open the ash door in the back of the boiler to draft some air so we could smoke a Cigg.He had 2 uniforms a gray one and a green one.He worked and my lazy pop sat at home bitchen that he can find a job.Never dis the janitor.
I'm not supposed to laugh at work...but failed today!
ReplyDelete#9: Clever.
ReplyDelete#13: The janitor was my favorite adult when I was in elementary school. Probably because every other adult there hated children.
#17: A lesson I learned the hard way: NEVER do any more than it expected of you.
Guys like you are why I kept a continuous help wanted ad.
DeleteEmployment expectations are not set by you, no matter how much you think so.

corporate loyalty is a one way street.
