Well people who aren’t very smart do tend to get themselves into trouble, & David from Lots of Jobs is just that in my opinion.

Here is what happened.

I found his site that allows companies to post ads searching for independent contractors or employees.

I tried to sign up to post some of my job openings for Exotic Publishing (yes, we hire real life staff – AMAZING, & we DON’T hire escorts, why would we???? We AREN’T an escort agency)

Anyway, this site kept saying that I was signing up as a job seeker instead of a company or employee, so I finally gave up & contacted them via their contact form. That was my first sign they didn’t know what they were doing.

I got no response, so a few weeks later I filled it out again asking them to PLEASE respond to their e-mails.

This is when I receive this RUDE judgmental e-mail which didn’t even have a subject line to it LOL. Just goes to show you how inept this guy really is. If you are a real online company, you should know that the subject line is one of THE most important areas you must address when writing e-mails.

Then he tells me he doesn’t post escort ads LOL WHO in the world ever said we were going to post escort ads????

He also said he didn’t want sales ads. Ummm, here we go again with sheer stupidity. Not ONCE did I give him any indication that we were planning on posting anything but an opening for a mainstream job.

Here is what he said… “We will answer the emails we want to answer, we don’t want escort jobs on our site, or product sales on our site, try Craiglist, thanks”

Well, you know what they say about assuming.

Job seekers, I’d be careful about searching on this site, you have a judgmental, ignorant, mean spirited person at the helm of it all. Think about the types of companies he allows to post on there.

Virtual Vocations

Virtual vocations provides a list of virtual work from home positions & being an online company, we have several of those we need to fill.

The customer service department asked me to forward our hiring ads to them & they would post our online positions, so I did. Here’s our open positions if you care to read them…

That is when I get an e-mail from Laura Spawn telling me that they won’t accept our ads because we are an adult site.

So once again, right wing religious fanatics decide to play god & make the choice of discriminating against honest ethical company by banning ALL adult sites.

They don’t trust their independent contractors enough to let THEM make the decision about whether they wish to apply for the positions, they are judge & jury & they decide what is best for the public.

Once again, people who don’t think other people have a brain in their heads to make their own decisions.

I wouldn’t want to be involved with control freaks like that.

Design Quote wasted my time.

Nowhere on their site do they say a pseudo (I don’t consider this company to be an adult site through & through) can’t hire graphic web designers, yet they rejected my ad to hire a graphic web designer.

They are discriminatory & clearly right wing religious, otherwise they would let the graphic designer choose if they want to bid for the project, not be control freaks.

This company is very unprofessional & borderline nasty.

I found them on a business networking site which is fairly new & since I don’t want to tarnish the networking site, I won’t mention it here, as I know the owner of it.

Anyway, I read one or two messages from this Nicholas person, was curious about this site they were building, & so I naturally went to it.

I saw their tagline “Helping neighbors make ends meet.” & decided that this would be a good idea since there are times I need help around the house for things,I’m new to my area, & if I wish to hire someone, I’d rather do it on a site other than Craigs List.

From the minute I signed up, I was given the 3rd degree from this Nicholas Davidson about what my company does.

What that has to do with me hiring a cleaning lady, esthetician, hairdresser, or computer techie for my computer is beyond me, but then I thought maybe he was suggesting I use his site to hire staff for my team as well. I thought he was just being curious & giving me ideas on how to use his site.

So I tell them I do many things, but my main company helps people in the escort industry, & maybe this would be a good place to find staff too since I wasn’t initially thinking along those lines since the site was really about people getting to know people in the neighborhood.

The next thing I know, I’m being told I’m not welcome by this judgmental close minded person who can’t even understand English properly.

He thinks I’m going to advertise an escort agency on his site.

I never said any such thing & never even implied it.

I don’t even own an escort agency, & if he had taken the time to actually read what I wrote instead of being ignorant, he would have realized my company had nothing to do with why I was signing up, but it seems he was out to get me from the getgo.

He has no signups, he should have been happy that I was his first signup.

I was very genuine, curious, & honored to help him start off his new site, & instead I get this negative condescending attitude. I don’t care if he wished me well, how I was treated was ridiculous.

Your choice if you want to deal with people like that.

Elance the bidding site that pretty much dominates the market discriminates against adult companies.

They don’t care that the company is probably more professional than the sole proprietors who hire independent contractors and then don’t pay them or even respond back, they just decided they wouldn’t allow me to connect to their freelance pool because I have a suedo adult site.

It’s not nice Elance, you didn’t have a problem years ago when I used you, you shouldn’t have a problem now. Mind you, years ago I had major problems with one logo designer, and a desktop publisher, so that’s not saying very much about Elance.

I signed up for Direct Freelance to find team members for my company – http://www.directfreelance.com/

I don’t hire escorts or any staff who do anything adult, these are ONLY support or business related team members.

I got into it with a jr. editor who responded to my hiring ad.

As are so many editors unfortunately, she was mean spirited, egotistical, immature & insecure. She’s not the first person like that I’ve coem into contact with, it seems the majority (not all) of the writing/editing industry is like that.

So like the immature person she was, she runs to rat on me telling them god knows what, & did they contact me first to communicate with me?

Nope, a lot of these bidding sites are run by control freaks.

I don’t know if it has to do with all the BS they have to go through or what.

Most if not all of them favour the freelancers (independent contractors), treat the companies like garbage without even hearing the company’s side of the story.

Freelancers are allowed to provoke companies, waste their time, etc. & when the company gets angry & voices their opinion, they are told they are the ones causing problems.

This has happened to me many many times with Guru.com, but I won’t go into that right here, because I’m only talking about this bidding site, Direct Freelance.

So, they blocked all my ads saying they don’t allow porn. I told them I’m NOT hiring for porn, I’m hiring support staff & if they don’t allow that, then fine, I’ll post them on my blog. Not even an apology for making a mistake, they clearly needed no excuse to ban me for nothing & here I am contributing to the economy by hiring team members for Exotic Publishing.

I was told by Larry Howlett from Infusion that they won’t allow me to use their service because they don’t like my site.

While I wasn’t sure I was interested in them, we had set up a demo of their product & I had to reschedule.

So, I basically wasted my time reading their site, responding to their e-mails, listening to their voice mail messages, etc., only to be pre-judged before even talking to anyone.

Maybe they should put on their site that they are a closed minded judgmental company who discriminates against any & all adult sites so I don’t waste my precious time.

Contrary to their belief, some adult companies do run a professional business here & our time is just as precious as theirs is.
