    Silly Pimps

    Pimp sends a goon onsite who is removed after a week for not listening, not being able to do the job and c*cking about with the registry on various servers after being told to stop.

    Pimp send replacement. Can't read or write English and breaks more than he fixes. Local team leader says to replacement "pull yer socks up and stop breaking things. The powers that be have said to get rid but I've asked for another week". And gives new bloke 2 days intense 'this is how to do the job'. (It's bespoke software but not rocket science at all).

    Goon still rubbish so is asked to leave.

    Cue pimp account manager ringing up telling local leader he's too intimidating and can't manage a team and if he sacks anyone again there'll be "lots of lawsuits. You can't sack our employees".

    And they're on a 40% markup.

    Don'tcha just love em.

        Sounds like Computer People. They're selling themselves as a consultancy now, which gives them a great excuse to charge even more (for value-added services; yeah right) and pay even less. Kerchingggggg. Tossers.
        His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...
