Google coughs up $5.5m to make recruiters 'screwed out of overtime pay' go away
Re: It'e like the 'kin; wild west out there!
Yes and no.
Yes, the laws exist, but unless you can afford a lawyer, you're screwed, because the agencies that are supposed fight for you, are massively underfunded. Want to guess by which party?
The last time someone tried to pull this on me I raised serious stink. I did get my money, but was fired shortly thereafter.
And guess what? I couldn't afford a lawyer so no retaliation suit was filed.
I've said it before and it always bears repeating: A U.S. company will try to screw you just as hard as a Chinese, India or Russian company will.
As for any reform, the pain obviously isn't bad enough yet. You see, many Americans, instead of seeing what the rich and powerful are doing and demanding they be thrown in jail, instead wonder how they can get in on the action. Being Lord King Boofoo is more important to them than social justice.
Yet more reform efforts at the Euro Patent Office, and you'll never guess what...

Re: I rather approve of a ban.
The park is a public area. So people have a right to go thru the park.
That's the long and short of it right there. Why they do so do is their business.
Also, the company didn't trash the park, the people did. They should have been fined, not the company.
This case fails on so many levels. and is a frivolous lawsuit. But I'll bet they win it. I hope I'm wrong.

Re: The problem isn't ideologies spreading on the Internet
Just stop with the tax and spending arguments right now.
The very wealthy are dodging billions in taxes and the average punter is getting screwed. And that's the long and short of it.

Re: One wonders
I too wonder why anyone stays there. My brief stint was enough to convince me beyond any doubt their days are numbered and they are by far the most dysfunctional company I have ever had the displeasure of working for.
Looks good on the CV though!
I have yet to run into an ex-IBM employee/contractor who liked working for them. And one who didn't have trouble getting paid.
Wow.. Not sure what else to say!
I do: this is a very common attitude among all large American companies and has been for decades.
No exaggeration.
I've said it before and I never get tired of saying it: the goal of every large American business is to force a customer to pay them but not have to delver a single damn thing.
Again, no exaggeration.
You know, like a Wall St broker.
There are a lot of pump-and-dump companies these days that could use the invisible hand of the free market upside their heads.
But alas, the game is rigged and the platitudes only for consumption by the gullible punters. Free market just means free to fuck you, the customer, up the arse without consequence (or even lube) while socializing the consequences and privatizing the profits.
