That is a general statement. Have you walked in every person shoes? No, you have not. I personally have worked 2 jobs most of my life, worked weekends most of my life and almost always given 120% to the comapnies I work for.

This offshoring thing is a result of the greed of companies, wanting to make a profit always, every quarter, with no concern or responsibility to their employees. MTOS want empolyees that are honest, but are they honest with us? No. They want loyality, but are they loyal to us?, No. Do they show us respect for the hard work we do...........with lip service but their ACTIONS show different.

In this dog eat dog world you have to look out for yourself and forget these companies sometimes (I am not saying to not do the best you can, yes you should)but don't let them take over your life. Take of yourself, your families and honor God........all other things will fall into place. Bottom line, if you don't take care of yourself and family, who will? When these companies have used you all they can, they do not hesitate to let you go............

generalizing
Well said.

I'm not generalizing, but some of the MTSOs and recruiters

I've dealt with this past week are the most condescending, rude, obnoxious people I've ever "met"!!!! Most of them aren't, mind you, but I've had a run of bad apples recently. Most of them are very nice, personable, honest people. But lately, it's enough to make me want to get out of the business again. Just because a person is offering a job does not give them the right to be jerks. However, it's a good thing it came out now instead of later before I wasted my time or energy any further with them. Some of these people have such egos. They treat potential employees as peons or nuisances, so you can imagine what they treat their employees like. No wonder they're hiring again. And again. And again. I believe in treating my fellow humans with respect and dignity. There's no need to be rude or short-tempered, especially when YOU are the one that made the mistake. If it's stressing you out that much, get out of the business! Some people are just not management material. Please, proofread your ad to be sure you didn't misspell anything or accidentally cut off all the important details when you copied and pasted. Your professionalism, or lack of it, is glaringly apparent. Also, put down a wage range. After seeing my resume, do you honestly think I'd work for $.06-.07 per line? Remember, the person you tick off today with YOUR bad attitude may have been the friend from another board yesterday or a possible account referral tomorrow. I used to think highly of you. Now the truth comes out.
