He is no longer with us….

 

A job is a job.

But sometimes being overqualified is a BIG problem. Unless you are competing against idiots that the HR manager knows will not work out, he knows that as soon as something better comes along, you're gone.

So he's going to be looking at it from a perspective of "Can I keep this guy long enough for a promotional opportunity to come up, or is he going to become burned out working so far below his skills?"

Fortunately, in my case, my current boss persuaded my former boss that the case was the former... and after 2 years I moved up.
Former boss was so difficult to work with that it very nearly became the latter. The only thing getting me out of bed in the morning was the stability.

 

The kind you kill with a flamethrower.

 

best mileage I've had, 100% highway driving home.

 

That's discrimination.

 

Finally ditching the billies for a mid travel setup?

 

Who ever it's for is a lucky gal.

It's a Chris worthy spider.

 

A pos should not have those kind of wings.

 

They were horribly installed too. Watched him take 5x to close his for properly.

 

Let's say two people interview for a job. Each as the same degree, have done the same job but one has slightly more experience and made more in salary. Both would be qualified for the job but the most experienced won't necessarily get it based on your matrix. If the salaries were more equal and fit within the matrix, maybe.

You'd be better off just saying "I'm sorry. We are looking at other candidates" and leaving it at that.

 

That's his point.

Two people that can both do the job, but the slightly more experience of one classifies him out of the matrix so he is passed over.

 

What Rich said.

Also, if you are using your matrix to make those decisions, you're limiting the talent you can bring on board. By using my example, you automatically pass over someone you believe is over paid according to the matrix. You would better off using a salary range and having a salary discussion with the candidate you believe is the best fit for your job. Even if you cannot afford to offer that candidate a salary commensurate with their past salary history-you never know and if it doesn't work, you still have the other candidate in the wings

 

He wants our ice for our keg

 

I couldnt resist. The box was empty. Wish I had my camera ready, the look on her face was priceless. Im paying for it too. She was still pissed this morning.

 

LOL. Now you might really have to put something in the box. G/L with that!

 

Lol

 

Nice setup.

You're a brave man. Keep us posted for the the next several weeks ... just so we know you're still alive.

 

I've seen that quite a bit up here. The single wall beds on those older trucks was the weak point. But the rest of the truck just keeps going.

 

So close yet so far What a tease
