New office employee rants about working 9 to 5
Mike Hunt replied to Gepetto's topic in The Geek Club
I agree, I did. A polished interview means nothing once the job starts. I have hired people who were great interviews, yet not so great once the job starts. And vice versa. For a first time employee out of college I look for more for enthusiasm, interest in responsibilities, growth potential. I don`t expect them to have the perfect interview. Also have no issue with questions about PTO and other perks, but save those for the end. As I always cover all of that. -
New office employee rants about working 9 to 5
Mike Hunt replied to Gepetto's topic in The Geek Club
I just interviewed a 23 year old recent college grad for an entry level position that has a generous starting salary with full bennies and PTO. The kid graduated in May and has not worked since. Instead of asking about the position and growth the first thing he asked was "Will I be getting a fuel stipend for my commute?" I asked him "How far do you live?" and he says "well if traffic is heavy is can take me 15-20 minutes." Next question was again nothing about the position, but does he get a gym membership? Then a couple more questions about PTO. After that I just said "Thanks for interviewing, instead of waiting to inform him I said I don`t think you are a fit" Thanks. I get an email a day later that said "What could I have done better in the interview?" -

Anyone in the service industry knows the facts. It is not racist, it is more a cultural issue. -
why do people think that others should be liked because of their skin color?
Mike Hunt replied to seafoam1's topic in The Geek Club
Same thing still goes on in African nations today. Light skinned blacks are victims of racism, and bigotry. Nobody cares though. -

Of course there are, but in general the black culture does not believe in tipping as much as others. -

Black people have it right regarding tipping or not tipping. Maybe we all should follow. My co-worker is an engineer, single and makes a good living. When we go out he refuses to tip more than a few bucks no matter what the tab is. We went out one night and it was his turn to buy, our tab was 96.00, he left 100. I said that is not enough, told me if they want more $$$$ they need to get a different job. I threw down another 20 as we were leaving because I go there once in a while. Maybe he is right. -
Ilhan Omar breaks down in fit of rage aimed at Biden, Democrat leadership over support for Israel
Mike Hunt replied to seafoam1's topic in The Geek Club
Correct, Omars district is heavy Somalian, we were in that are for a convention last year. Gangs of Somalians roam the streets at night. Not sure why Omar does not concentrate on making that area safer. If I am not mistaken Tlaib took over John Conyers seat. That district has been unopposed forever. Whoever is on the ballot wins. -

The so called "Squad" are not really democrats. They are socialists. They had to run under the democratic party name to garner the votes to get elected. -

I don`t follow her but did she speak out against Hamas on the all the innocent Jew civilians that were slaughtered? Before Israel retaliated? -

Unreal, "Yesterday Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib was asked specifically to condemn the butchering of children she refused to condemn it,"

Sobering to say the least.

Hamas would exterminate all Jews if they could. They would have killed 50-100K that day if they had the power to do so. Whatever happens going forward is on Hamas.

Illegal Aliens & the Schocheting of America
Mike Hunt replied to HellToupee's topic in The Geek Club
Biden`s lack of border security has put all Americans in jeopardy for future attacks. Shameful negligence by the Biden administration. These are the numbers of people caught who were on terror watch lists the last 2 years. The numbers who have passed through are thought to be even higher. Syria: 538 Yemen: 139 Iran: 659 Iraq: 123 Afghanistan: 6,386 Lebanon: 164 Egypt: 3,153 Pakistan: 1,613 Mauritania: 15,594 Uzbekistan: 13,624 Turkey: 30,830 -
Why??? MSNBC — has called Hamas terrorists “militants” or “fighters” hundreds of times since Saturday, but not terrorists.
