So a few months ago I suggested that a client of mine put up a simple website. Nothing fancy, about 5-10 hours of work, which would have included getting a domain name, hosting site, writing the HTML, and showing them how to update it if they want to.
So yesterday I walk in to take care of this disk-corruption problem and my contact there says I have good news and bad news for you. The good news is that management decided to get a website, the bad news is that the elected president's daughter is now on the payroll doing it. LOL I said, "how can that be a full-time job?" Now this is a non-profit organization that is paid for by a cooperative of about 1000 members, so this is just criminal what they're doing. This woman is working 40 hours a week "at home" on a site that is absolutely horrible. Literally, the site could have been put up me in 10 hours, and a expert website designer probably in 5. It looks like a 10yo designed it. Maybe her kid did it. LOL So far she's logged months of hours. LOL So now I'm wondering, now that I know, if I'm liable for not notifying the other trustees or could I be charged later with complicity? This has got to be breaking some laws. Additionally, this knucklehead installed this Spector Pro key logging software, which I don't know if it was authorized by the president or whether this is a fishing expedition. But since it is the president's daughter, I obviously can't say a word. The accountant, which I work with directly, showed me the software and asked me what I thought of their new anti-virus software. I told her it wasn't anti-virus, it was key logging software. So obviously the bill was paid through the accountant as anti-virus software. Now she's worked for the company for like 15 years and now she's steamed. What snakes. I'm thinking of bailing completely on this client as it looks like things are going to get real bad real soon. I'd rather not get involved anymore since the prospects of new work is zero. It ain't what you know, it's who's your daddy.
