IT people talking about being exploited, particularly by unskilled laborers, well... I understand how "boring" it might be to be harassed in this way, just as telemarketing is, but - come on - a little perspective, please. Surely you'll understand that your boring doesn't trump someone's need to make money.
P.S. The author talks about "us social inepts in tech". I hope he understands his article is a great banner to said ineptness.
- kps 11y agoYour ‘need to make money’ does not entitle you to any of my time or forbearance, both of which are finite.
- paulojreis 11y agoSure. That's roughly what I tell telemarketing operators. But a) talking about exploitation is still ridiculous; and b) what do you suggest? Do you propose passing a law forbidding unsolicited contacts? Via which channels?
