Awful organization... A jobs a job though. A side note Mike. I've seen your post you're hardly computer savvy and abrasive to the point I doubt you're much of a salesman. I don't have any ill, but I'd hire you for neither. Probably not at all given I have the inside track of how you supposedly think of employees. This as a guy who has hired, managed, and employeed a rather large number of folks in varying capavities. |

What do ya mean I'm not a ****ing people person ? I get along with people just fine,.....apart from religions and libs and migrants, and feminists, idiots, and....Yeh, OK So maybe I don't get along great with everybody
Here is one I am dealing with right now. A couple months ago a guy I know offered to rent me some space in his garage to build a couple bikes for re-sale. He was working on some articulated 4-wheel electric thing so it sounded good. A block away, we can pick each others brains and we both have different tools that could come in handy. I wasn't there for about a week and when I got back found he had my bike ripped apart, completely. I told him I needed it put back together, leave the body off since that's all I was replacing on this one. Make it look new to sell, not actually do any real work to it. Another week and my frame has been cut and modified and drilled and is in the process of of being assimilated into his 4-wheeler. I told him OK, I paid $275 for that one so you can just buy it off me for that since you have completely taken it over for your own project. 2 months later and I've never seen the cash or the bike back together, and I never will. You can guess how "abrasive" I am about that one
. To add insult to injury he got all pissy because I packed up my tools when I went home and wont help him with his project.
The computer-bit isn't all that difficult for this setup. Basically they have the kijiji, e-bay, craigslist ect account already in place so its just a matter of researching the item's value, taking some pictures and putting up the posting. Its actually no different than the buying and selling I already do when the chance arises. From what my buddies that work there have told me THATS why the competition is stiff, the university and college are just getting back in swing and this is something right up a lot of students ally.
Its true I have taken some pretty big bites not out of employers, but rather corporate criminals who should never have had staff in the first place. My view is still the same, and thats if you don't like the labor or heath-and-safety laws of Ontario or the legal rights of your stuff, then take your little company to another province or state. I'm a bit of a hard-ass on the stance. Being as big as they are, I dont THINK it should be an issue, but ya never know. There is only one way to find out
If they are I can always add another notch to my belt.
