you can bet high performers like myself won't work in your shop
Everyone has the potential to be a high performer, of course.
FTFY
Suits wear the same way jeans and other pieces of clothing do.
Yes, sometimes they can be repaired, but if the tear is in the wrong place, the suit is ruined.
And, yes, I've worked in jobs where I had to wear suits regularly, and I wore good suits not just any suit.
Could it not also be that people who want to really understand computer architecture better take obscure classes like COBOL, and being better programmers make more money?
Fdd isn't a coding thing, it's a shitty-manager thing.
And that's in every business everywhere.
I might have said that as coding drops down the labor ladder (ie the margins become tighter, profits less, that such muggy be more common...but at least in my case, some of the tiniest post little companies I worked for had some great managers, and the great wealthy ones had more assholes....So no, I'd guess that it's universal.
Bull.
Short term I may be forced to take a job that I don't want, but long term I'm looking for a place to work where I'm treated like a human being, and where I can enjoy working.
Life is too short to work like a slave.
And while it may be that you have some employees who can't get a better deal, you can bet high performers like myself won't work in your shop – at least not long term.
In the Netherlands you'll see lots of Dutchies (in very expensive suits) riding bikes around.
It's not a big deal if your suit has been tailored correctly.
