Re: [AFMUG] OT new hires

Getting some people to think past breakfast, lunch, or dinner is a challenge these days.

Are there snacks?!?

My neighbor has some Hispanic people building a decorative fence around his patio.  They only come on weekends, so it’s probably a side gig.

 

The entire family comes in the crew cab pickup, and I mean the entire family.  Mom, Dad, sons, daughter.  Even the boy who looks to be about 6 carries tools and materials.  OSHA would have a fit, but they have no jurisdiction over family member employees.

 

But like Jaime says, learn to value work from an early age.  Many are religious and family oriented, I would think conservatives would love them, I don’t quite understand the animosity.  “Taking our jobs” I guess, but nobody else wants a lot of the jobs.  Your typical American wants to be like Mark Zuckerberg, worth $200 billion and how hard did he work for it?  Got the idea for a “face book”, maybe wrote a few lines of code in the beginning, hardest job he’s ever done is put on a suit and tie and sit in Congressional hearings and get yelled at.

 

What other examples do we have in current American culture?  Celebrity parents who pay bribes to get their kids into elite colleges so they can cut classes to be “influencers”.  Or the whole Kardashian family.  At least professional athletes are told they need another line of work to fall back on after 10 years, is anybody telling that to the influencers and professional gamers?

Work ethic is taught to us at an early age.  

Respect your boss, respect your work.

Not in a subservient manner but the reality of the value of good work.

Proteje tu trabajo.

I swear, if they were available, my company would be 100% Hispanic.  Racist or not, white guys are lousy employees when compared to Hispanics.

Same here.  He didn't show up, called to see if he was OK, he blocked the call and texted back "boss gave me more money".

Well..why look for the other job?

So we get this guy to do the pre employment assessments.  He passes the first interview.  Passes the second interview (had to go to two different places for the interviews).  Supposed to start today.  No-show.  Called him to see if he is OK he hangs up on us. 

 

Sad to say, this is the norm.  Out of 100 applications, 10 will actually agree to an interview.  Maybe 3 will show up.  We will hire 1 and he will not show up or last out the week.  Indeed works pretty good to find people and I am paying for it, but wow.  Go to all the effort of interviewing, we do a background check now for driving problems, and then a no show.  I don’t understand people.
