Flumper Barflusterbutt Wrote:That I am fair and show respect to every employee regardless of their occupation. I do this by very carefully reviewing raises and bonuses to make sure that every person that works for me is making wages in relation to his value to the company, regardless of who he is working for or what crew he is on. I am available to help anyone with any problem, whether it relates to work or personal life. I probably hire an attorney at least once a week to handle something that has happened, from traffic tickets to divorces.
I recently went to the police station to talk a policeman into dropping theft charges against two of my employees that were ticketed by a policeman at 6:30 in the morning as they were loading some rock into their trunk from a pile on one of our jobsites. They couldn't speak enough english to explain to the redneck policeman that they worked on that job and the rock was waste rock with no value. I got him to drop the charges.
I loan them money at no charge. This is something that is very foreign to them, as they are used to being charged as much as 25% per week for a loan. I have to be careful to monitor how much they borrow so that they don't get themselves too extended. So far I have not had a problem.
I was on a jobsite the other day and a foreman told me that one of his best hands quit. He said that he and the employee had gotten into an argument over some damage the man had done to some asphalt while running a backhoe. As I drove back to the office, I passed the man walking down the side of the road. I stopped and picked him up. After riding with him for about an hour, I calmed him down. He did not want to lose his job, but he had a lot of pride. I took him back to the jobsite and got the foreman to let him come back to work. He will remember that because I didn't have to do it.
will you send me a job application?
i am very talented and have a lot of experience in many fields
i am currently looking for a different job in a warmer climate, as the people here don't appreciate my skill and diversity
plus philly sucks
TIA

PS Thanks for moving my $$$ thread.

ps/ i will let god decide when my time comes, (s)he needs no help from me
I realise that I have a past to break with--an accumulation of inertia, wrong, foolishness, rot, junk. A great need of clarification, of mindfulness, or rather, of no mind. A need to return to genuine practice, right effort. Need to push on the great doubt. Need for the spirit. Hang on to the clear light.
