8/31 What does: "We want someone with less experience" mean?
\_ "We want someone we can pay less."
\_ "You're not good enough, but we're too nice to tell you that."
\_ "The old-timers are afraid you'll get promoted over them."
\_ "I'm the PHB"
\_ "We want someone we can mold and shape", "we're afraid you're going
to get bored and leave" (hiring someone costs money), "we don't want
you questioning the boss' authority" -John
\_ "We don't want promiscuous women to be our wives."
\_ Either they don't want to pay you what you should be paid or
they don't think you are goign to be interested in the job because
a lot of it is boring scutt work and senior engineers tend to get
bored when all they do is scutt work. |
