I had visited a local job fair to see if there were any companies I'd be interested in working for. The front desk collects your resume before you go inside and there are less than the amount of companies they portray in a flyer that you get online and at the door. It takes a few seconds to see your not gonna be interested in any of the companies. Few days later I get a call from the hiring mgr at the very event organizer that runs the job fair . His name is Gregg Robinson he works for Jack Cohen  and the office is run by Mike they suck you into an interview and tell you your gonna be a superstar you can make a lot of money here . They only offer you 20k a year with no sick time . no breaks other than lunch. Hardly no leads to call prospective companies . Only two people make a decent salary in the whole place thich only has 6 employees . One of them is the owner and the other is an ex stock broker who likes to pat himself on the back a lot . It is a dingy run down office that lies to its customers telling them that they have 45 recruiters on staff that pre screen applicants for only the postions being posted by the  company you are calling. In reality an offsite call center from India just randoml picks any resume with no regard if the are capable of any job listed. I find a lot of companies that were burned for thousands of dollars are in fact pissed and don't want to take a space at the job fair anymore and with good reason. They try to play up nothing like its something and tell them in the scripted pitch that for $2100 they get a catered breakfast and lucnh table and chairs and resumes from applicants. I don't know who is more stupid Jack Cohen for thining he can get away with this type of chicanery or the companies how waste their money not realizing they are getting what they should be getting and it shouldnt cost that much . Tables and chairs indeed. I'm looking to quit this job very soon my unemployment paid me more . as no companies are jumping to pay for space whatsoever. They hired a new young girl who can talk and chew gum at the same time but gave her the same spiel as everyone ... your gonna be a superstar then they fed her an account that i think the hiring mgr called for her and just gave her the sale . He resembles a perveted looking homeless jesus who leers after young girls . This place makes my skin crawl.

Today was my last day of work for this company .  I regret writing the original blog about them on this site even though they do represent my personal opinions. I was very angry and needed to vent. It's my own fault for letting them talk me into taking this job in the first place . I just have to say that free speech is part of my right as american citizen in a free nation protected under the constitution and fought for with the blood of patriots who came to this country to protest against tyrrany.. What would it have been like if the british subject kept their mouths shut and took it lying down. There would't be an america today. Even though the above were my opions and obsdervations I'm big enought to apologize to the owner and any and all people portrayed in my original blog. I was not told to write this rebuttal I am doing this of my own free will. I at this time have nothing more to say other than as long as this company leaves me alone and doesnt try any thing foolish against me I will no longer post anything else except to say that I sincerely apologize for voicing my opinions on a public forum.

Update to my report

Just as an update to my complaint. I want to add that the way this company gives you your vacation time which they explain is one week after a year ??? omg their kidding right. Worse than even that is that almost every major and minor holiday the owner closes down the office the day before and day of the holiday in question and marks the extra day as a vacation day. Yes they expect you to use your vacation time for the owner shutting down his office a day early which has nothing do to with the holiday. As a new employer on top of making only $350 a week which is less than you would make if you flipped hamburgers you get docked an extra day plus the holiday cause you don't have any time in for a year. And when the year kicks in he starts deducting your vacation time during the calendar year so when you do want to tak a week off yoiu wont get paid for a week. I've worked for some cheap companies before but this guy has his picture next to the word miser in the dictionary. Not a soul who works there (all 6 and dwindling cause we are leaving)gets any supplies . I was asked by the shyster hiring manager if I wanted a calendar I'm still waiting for it . The girl who sits near me said she had to scavenge around the office for pens , clander etc. this is a very pathetic place to work for.  They try to charge companies  anywhere from $1500 to $3000 for a booth at a hotel to hire people at a job fair and they cant supply us with pens  and calenders. All of us are looking for other jobs and these tools are gonna have to find new victims to lie to in order to hire them If something sounds too good to be true it usually is.
