Paul,
I have very happy employees. I give them work to do, enable them with the tools and
skills to do it and expect quality results. They get paid by the hour. They are not
paid to screw around on meaningless lists. If they want to do that, they do it on
their own time - off the clock. So, yes a REAL employer cares or that employer will
not be in business long. I have a great relationship with all my programmers. They
work for me because they get exciting projects, get paid well, work in a great
environment and love to come to work. You speak about things that you have no
knowledge. Find ing good, responsible and detail-oriented programmers is tough. Most
want way too much money for the skill set the possess. Most do not do any more than
the minimum they need do to get by. Most spend too much time screwing around with
personal email, vell phone, pages and stupid lists at work. Excessive time spent on
such things is definitely the mark of a poor employee.
