  • HORRIBLE trend and this is exactly why America's economy is in the shape it's in. Let's hire people to work long hours with little compensation then dump them when we don't need them any longer. Who the heck writes this crap???

  • as quick as people get hired..people get laid off..not a supporter of such actions..smh

  • @teqlab

    It's becoming more popular, though. I've had a few jobs within 10 years and all were direct hire, now all I'm finding available out there are contract/temporary positions.

  • @jgq85 Staffing solutions have been around since the beginning. This is nothing new.

  • Chris still has no fashion sense

  • Never thought IT jobs would come to this. Fuck IT, I'm going to get back into nutrition/fitness.

  • @PhoenixOpenProject great, the highly-skilled wont give 2 shits about this.

    what im waiting to know is how are the newbies able to advance to that level?? if they cant find the time out of their **job** to go to classes, to be able to pay for that education..

    its a swirl of madness and that's exactly what they (this guy) wants.

    they want to be able to control this hyper-expanding career that nothing seems to affect.

  • @bmw2go11

    I'd say it would affect IT folks at the lower end, but not so much for the highly-skilled and experienced b/c they won't give two shits about this. What I am curious to know is what type of precaution Modis takes to prevent from being cut out of the picture.

  • @beatmaker33 He hinted at why it's not on anymore in a recent video. He plays music, and such he doesn't have the right to stream it so no audio.

  • bluntly, this plan would turn IT specialists into whores for the middlemen hired by organizations.

    if this happens the onsite IT field would collapse and the only way out would be by finding another career.

    i have no pity for the people that think this is a great idea
