job related rant

Even worse are people who show up for work and want to start at 75-80K a year and never do any of the 'gunt work' that any job field requires. Not a day of actual experience and they expect to max out the earning potential.

I do not know how many times I have told some young kid: "It does not matter that you graduated from 'such and such' school with high honors." You are gonna start here on the bottom of the heap and work up.

I seem to have a high turnover rate because I do not give in and give them the pay they feel they deserve. They think the grass is greener elsewhere and I *WISH* I could be there when reality smacks them in the forehead. Over half come back within 6 months and ask if they could work for my company (and me) again.
