Comment on: Blog Post 'Lessons learned from Charlie Sheen': ke their living in the world of real people on a day to day basis. Here is the question. If your client friends started acting like Charlie Sheen , drugs sex and rock and roll. Would you tell your candidate to belly up , it's tiger blood baby. I know this client is a a drunk, screams at his employees, is an arrogant asshole and sleeps with all the girls in A/P but hey he's making money and the company stock is up. he's one of a kind and the company stock is way up there. Not me. I chunked a client company two years ago when the new CFO turned out to be exactly what i have described. He's very good at venture capital, investor relations, and keeping the stock prices level. in the office he acts a lot like Charlie Sheen. He's a foul mouthed puke, sexually and verbally harrasses the gals that work there. When the feedback started i didn't want to give up what had been a good client for over 20 years. But i felt i had a responsiblity to my candidates not to send them into the Charlie Sheen environment. I quit recruiting for that company and threw some pretty big stones when i did. They now have 118% turn over. He is still there. I'm not and my candidates won't be. Holier than Thou. Perhaps. but i dont' want to work for Charlie Sheen or this CFO and i won't put anybody else in that position either.. Would i bash the guy who made bad career moves? If he were a drunk, druggie screw everything that walks and breathes that caused his bad career moves. I wouldn't bash him i would pack his sorry butt right out of my office. Tell him to go clean himself up and call me when he got over his narcissistic delusions of being above the rules or decent society. Judge him personally, that's up to somebody far above my pay grade. Represent him to one of my clients. I would go get back in the fountain and stay there before i would send him to anybody. It's a two way street. If you wouldn't work for ole Charlie and you wouldn't send your candidate to him why consider him or anyone like him anything but a freak of nature.…; Added by Sandra McCartt at 6:41pm on March 25, 2011

Topic: Business to Business Sales Executive: d to start earning $75k the first year. If anyone is interested in working on this on a split fee basis, let me know. Send me your responses to my email directly outside of this blog please. This is what I post to get candidates: Business to Business Sales Executive With salaried jobs getting fewer than ever and getting any job now takes some doing, you should respond to this ad to get an early interview , take the training and with advanced commissions, begin earning money again soon with a company that hardly ever loses accounts and pays you residual income. And once you break $100k in earnings your residual income becomes vested and you continue to get income from these accounts even if you quit working for this company for as long as the accounts stay with the company. How many firms offer you a deal like that? In a tight job market it may pay you to consider taking training to learn how to sell credit card processing services to businesses in your area and end up earning residual income for life as well as moving up to management in a year or two. Sometimes a step back might not be such a bad thing if within a year you can end up with a solid income of somewhat less than $100k but in a year or two you end up with $200k or more a year of residual income. Send me your resume so it is in my in box and then call me for more information. It never hurts to talk. If you like earning advance commissions and residual income where eventually you could be earning over $200k even before you get out of bed in the morning, then read on. This is a good company that offers field support and training which can help you achieve a six figure residual income. While the majority of sales people take 2-3 years to reach this benchmark, they have a few above average salesmen that have reached this success after only 12 months; later to to exceed $200K a year in less then 5 years. When was the last time you worked for a company that offered an opportunity to earn an unlimited secure income while working in a team-family like structure? Call me with questions or send me your resume and explain to me why you think you could do business to business sales work. Please forward your resume to me and give me times when you can be reached for an early interview. George C.

Comment on: Topic 'Commission only recruiters?': are fleeing the regulatory problems of a government that institutes "fairness" for employees. The result? Some of the highest unemployment in the country despite having what was once the world's seventh largest economy. That's a pretty strong argument that the regulatory environment of your state has tipped too far past sanity for business owners.There is a limit as to how much regulation business can take on - and it's clear your state has reached it.As for your complaints about CEO's - this hogwash of a stimulus bill just gave $1 billion in tax breaks to Paul Allen, the owner of Charter Communications. Meanwhile, small business get next to nothing, except a horde of regulations that make it harder to compete with large corporations. Big companies love regulation - because they have the campaign contributions and access to tweak it in their direction. They have the money to absorb foolish costs.Small companies live in fear of such government regulations. And for those able, offshoring is the answer. You want jobs in the US? Quit screwing the people who make the jobs!http://www.theagitator.com/2009/02/12/new-law-cripples-small-and-in...This thread is about commission only employees. Jason's experience proves our point. There's too much risk in hiring. He still wants to grow, but he's not willing to risk his company to do so. And every hire is a risk that could end your company and bankrupt you. Who in their right mind would hire someone under those conditions? The conditions you want to impose!Maybe if we had more common sense laws, and less corporate-leaning employment giveaways, he could do the right thing and hire people. Maybe if laws weren't constantly expanded to buy votes giving new "rights" to healthcare, a "living wage" or "fairness" as defined by a bureaucrat who has never held a real job, we wouldn't be facing a long-term slide into permanent 10% unemployment.Look at France, Germany, and Italy. You know the job you want in those countries? A government job. You don't want to be the underclass there, where 50% of the poor and immigrant are unemployed.I personally prefer freedom. I don't assume business owners are crooked and employees are noble. But then again, I take responsibility for myself and pay my taxes, mortgage and healthcare insurance. Guess that makes me a sucker in today's economy. …; Added by Todd Kmiec at 12:10pm on February 22, 2009
