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.
