Brother have you got a dime?
So Im eyeballs deep in one of the worst things about living in Vancouver; the job hunt. See, unlike the rest of the world, employers here seem to have no urgency in getting a position filled. Allow me to use an example (albeit anonymous) of what I am talking to. In January I was interviewed by a local tech group in which I was basically told a) I got the position and b) they would be contacting me shortly to finalize the position.
Well shortly passed and time went on. I had to take a short term contract to pay my bills. In the latter half of the contract they contacted me and expected me to drop everything as they had “dropped the ball”. Those are their words. So I do some arranging and I cant get out of the contract till the next week. Their answer: they understand and as it happens they wont be ready until March. Uh okay so you’re now saying that urgent need can now be put off five weeks. The best part was the “keep in touch”.
So I kept in touch, contacted them several times without response and then I go on their page today. New UI- thanks for your classy ways. Im sure that when you get into a real city you’ll find that your absent minded dickhead ways wont get you too far.
Good luck
