Buff, I didn't understand what you were saying for a while. I understand now, you were replying to Romeo's comment.
My reply to Romeo is this. I am in business. If I took the time to hire drugged out kids in an attempt to clean them up (which is NOT likely to be successful) and try to make decent citizens out of them, I would be out of business. I'm sure it would be good for my soul, but it wouldn't feed my family and pay my expenses and other employees.
---------------------------
Here's my view plain and simple.
I run a business.
I need reliable hard working employees to make ends meet to stay in business.
I will search for good workers where ever I have to, to stay in business.
Our government looks out for the American worker (first)to make sure businesses offer jobs to our local people first. (And let me say this, if an American applies and meets the simple requirements: like showing up for the interview, willing to work 40 hours a week, able to show up for work, and perform his/her work at an adequate level, I basically will not, and CAN NOT turn them down).
Only after it is proven that I still have no workers. Then the government looks after me by allowing me to pull in foreign workers.
Allowing foreign workers to come here on a temporary visa to work is what is keeping the American businesses alive. Without them, we would not have reliable workers or any for that matter.
The workers that come here on work visas are screened in detail since 911.
If more workers were allowed to come here, there would be less illegals. There would be more tax revenue coming in from their paychecks and more businesses would have the man power they need to stay in business.
-------------------------------------
:monkey: Again, any AMERICANS interested in a groundman job please contact me. Especially if you have experience.
We are also looking for an experienced climber.
Also, a spray technician needed for next year, starting spring 2007.
