About 40 years ago, a mate of mine got a job with @IBM. Come and join us, it's great, says he. I didn't get a job with them. Maybe it was the shoulder - length hair, or something, but for quite some time now, I have been very glad not to have worked for such a horrible company.
I'm currently watching somebody who has been making money for the vile @IBM for several years, and is currently busy helping one of their biggest customers to cope with the steady stream of failures they are paying @IBM for. Supposedly, the person is now "redundant", an obvious
lie, given they are still doing useful work. Having told the person a date they would be sacked for no legally valid reason, and let them start to arrange things, untrustworthy @IBM have now decided to change the date. Naturally, their faithful employee is expected to accept
every twist and turn in @IBM's horrible mistreatment of an excellent employee. The plan is to cheat the billion pound customer by attempting to get the work done by cheap foreign labour, thus making more profit. My question is, when the customer works out what this stunt is
about, will Ginny still get her multi million bonus? Will any enterprise ever trust @IBM to continue to provide competent staff, when they clearly don't care who tries to do the work, as long as it is cheap?
