Welch Is Wrong

Staffing Talk

Naughty Anthony Ianarrino commits a cardinal sin on The Sales Blog in criticizing a business icon with this post on Jack Welch and sales people who give away the store. Three Hail Mary's, Anthony. His post also gets to the dicey topic of anguish about getting a job when you can't find one, and I'd like to tell one of mine. In 1985, my wife started medical school at Mayo and with our first baby (David, now 21, and on his way to running TempWorks) due soon I tried to get a job in Rochester, MN.

Advice to a Struggling Entrepreneur

Staffing Talk

[adapted from Slashdot.org posts by Shaper_pmp] "I'm the CEO of the company and my salary is less than $60K/year. My techs are paid hourly -- sometimes, during rough periods, they get paid more than I do. I manage to live just fine here in San Jose on a $50K/year salary."

China Opens Clinic for Internet Addiction

Staffing Talk

Propaganda ran thick about equal access to healthcare when I lived in the Soviet Union in 1979. The reality of course was that it wasn't equal at all. If you had a lot of money to bribe your doctor, you got medicine. If you didn't you, well you just suffered. But it looks like the commies are catching up. they have exactly the kind of healthcare I need for me and my family.
