You say all this, but you still haven't found anyone to take that job. So who's the retard now?



We're filling a position that was previously held by a 22 yr old guy who had no degree or experience. He still lived at home. He showed up late all the time, called in "sick" often, yet complained that he never had enough time saved up for vacation (b/c when he called in sick, his PTO was used until he had none left and then the company allows you to go negative up to 40hrs).

He did buy that $1500 folding Samsung phone, bought a Subaru WRX that he then modded to no end, and spent $10+ for lunch everyday at fast food places.

We finally let him go when he no called no showed twice. He called in to inquire about his last paycheck, but I'm pretty sure he owed the company money based on his borrowing of PTO time.

If he'd have been a good employee, he'd have been promoted within the year.

Sounds like what you can expect to hire at $15/hour.

This is the level of worker you attract with that compensation package. What do you not understand about that?

Hey dipshit, all the good employees are working elsewhere with decent starting pay.

Exactly. That job sucks and that one bum could only handle doing it for so long. He was so miserable that the had to call in sick a bunch.
