A lot of other employers are doing the same thing trying to drive wages down
A couple of years ago, some guy called me up with a hard sell approach for a contract support job somehow involving IBM.

I hung up.
And it’s a part time job so they don’t have to provide insurance
socialists are cheap hypocrites. more so when it’s their money.
