本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Hi guys, I believe it is time for our IT guys to united and stand up to say “no” to those motherfucker employers who take advantage of current situation to screw up the whole IT workforce.
I landed CA from the States last month. I have nearly 4 years of experience on both SQL Server DBA and web developer positions with a MS in CS degree from US, as well as MCDBA and MCSD certificates. Comparing to those from China, I know that is nothing. But it does not mean my value and price is even lower than a trash-collector or a bus driver’s.
I got an interview last week. It is an intermediate application developer position which requiring VB, ASP, XML, SQL, COM, and both Jscript and VB script experience. Before the interview was closed, a project manager asked me how much pay I would be comfortable for this job. I told them I just expected a market price. And they also asked me for my rates in US. I saw some SOBs were smiling after I told them the salary of my previous position. But I did not realize the meanings of the smiles. “Everything is perfect” that was the last sentence the Computing Facilities Director had spoken before he left the meeting room.
But this Monday, I received a letter from the HR dept of that company. Yes, it is an offer letter, but for me, it worth nothing, even less than a piece of toilet paper. The pay is 32k CAD with no any other options except insurances. Exchange into the USD, it is exactly one third what I made for my last position. I was so insulted that I did not response to either the letter or a message a HR woman left in my answer machine. This morning, the woman called me again and pushed me to sign on the letter and send it back before Monday. I politely told her I will and said nothing. This after noon I got several calls but answered no one. I hate to be fucked like that. Just let them wait and spend more resource to find a cheap guy whose ass is ready. I am not.
Guys, let us united and fight for our values and rights. Survive or die, we don’t have other choice.更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
