Comment on: Blog Post 'The Real Reasons Why Corporate Recruiters Hate You': e. 2. If they don't tell ya the life history of the band, it might just be they don't know either or it's a new band so it might be kind of fun ta try and figger it out together. Neither one a ya may like em but yer stuck at the dance.. Or not. 3. If somebody brung ya cause they thought ya might like the dance, don't spend all night bitchin' about the people there or the band or the guy what brung ya. Either fake a headache and go home early or think about if ya had anything better to do that night. 4. Don't tell the guy who brung ya that ya do a mean Samba if a shuffling two step in a circle half drunk is the closest ya ever got to a symphony ball. It's a wagon load better to say this is yer first party, ya don't really know much about dancin, but you'll be on time, wear a pretty dress and smile a lot while yer followin' his lead and tryin' ta make him look good while yer learnin. Ya just might learn something and he might brung ya next time if ya act right. 5. If ya don't like who brung ya, ya don't have ta go next time. Prolly both ya know it but it's just one dance so act right, try and at least you will be remembered as a good sport. 6. If the only reason ya come ta the dance with the guy who brung ya is because he paid ya and ya think ya might be able ta go home with the gitar player, yer either jest trashy or yer what folks call one o them hooker kind o ladies. 7. If ya git the picher that the guy who brung ya jest brung ya cause somebody else told him to. Find out who told him ta brung ya and go home with him. He might not only be the gitar player, he might also own the dance hall. 8. Quit yer bitchin. It ain't helpin anybody. There's other ways ta spend a Saturday night if dancin ain't yer thang.…; Added by Sandra McCartt at 6:42pm on January 13, 2012

Comment on: Blog Post '“I’m 52, With White Hair…But I’m Not DEAD!”': iddle. Tough subject. I'll throw some gas on the fire. Take the law out of it for a minute. Salary cost, satisfaction at the lower salary level for the long haul, trainability, fit into the structure of the business currently.....these are the things that clients are thinking. When we have a staff level position and a 30 year verteren says the salary is fine and he can do the job etc...... the client with a PM (would be this candidate's supervisor) who has 12 years of experience and is in his mid to late 30's just can't see it working out long term. If you turn it around and look at it from the client's point of view, they are building and filling slots for their team, their business, and the laws are just a big headache for them to dance around. That's not to say that a more seasoned person doesn't fit somewhere. There is a right place for everyone. However, when working with an outside agency they have to pay, clients want the ideal. In some cases that is more experience and in many cases it is less. It is harder to find that early to mid level candidate moving up in most industries. I think we'd be a lot better off without the laws. As you said, in that case you weren't going to get the job anyway. The excuse will just be manufactured. For candidates, the attitude has to be similar to ours. This is a game of finding, not creating. They won't force a client who wants a 32 year old to hire a 55 year old. Better to spend the time and energy working to find the client who wants a 55 year old. I think it would be a lot better if the laws were gone and they could put the age they are looking for on the job description. "Looking for someone in their mid to late 30's that will mesch well with the current team". Or "Ideally someone in their mid to late 30s to fit our culture, but a more experienced candidate with a lot of energy and the right experience could be a fit". Would be a lot more efficient for everyone. Todd Kmiec…; Added by Todd Kmiec at 12:15pm on April 1, 2010

Topic: Understand the What-For: s in technology, physical changes, however, are little more difficult for me to manage. As in the oft-dreaded office move, can I just scream: Aghhhhh !!! While the reason for the move (company growth) is very exciting, the actual, tedious task has become a bit of a nightmare. The bruises on my shins and the sore muscles prove I have been an active participant. Dealing with construction issues, landlord communications, security updates, phone/internet problems can easily stack up and create a lovely little patch of heartburn or thumping headache. Updating websites and profiles with new contact information, creating new business cards, ordering more furniture, selecting new software and other programs, visits to hardware stores, managing credit card companies and merchant services – if it sounds like I am complaining, I’m really not. One incident that hit me where it hurt most was the day and a half failure of our internet connection. Ouch! I was thanking God for my iPhone. I am simply coming to the conclusion that conducting normal business is next to impossible during a time of total upheaval. Not completely impossible but right next door to it… Thankfully, the work is still coming in and 2010 continues to shine a bit brighter. Ultimately, we all face times where outside distractions or influences that can get in the way of business development or the actual conducting of business. It becomes counter-productive to allow these distractions too much control and change how you would react or perform. Staying connected, being openly communicative, and being willing to try things in an unfamiliar way may actually benefit you and your organization. Downsizing, re-alignment of personal or company goals, changing locations, upsizing, going in-house, going out on your own, trying something new. As soon as you gain an understanding of the what-for, how you handle it moves to a whole other level. It is good to remind myself of this often. The what-for usually supersedes the what-I-think-I-need. And usually what I need is to just adjust. ©by rayannethorn…; Added by Rayanne at 2:39am on March 4, 2010
