    What a twat

    I have just called some company in Europe to ask if they need people. He "accuses" me of being a headhunter and then asks if I do recruitment for the "people" or the "money". I then get a lecture about putting people first and then he puts the phone down on me. Honestly what does he think I am?

      A headhunter? How dare he suggest such a thing? You're a pimp and proud of it so don't let the buggers get you down.

          Are you trying to grow your business by exporting your cold calling services?

            Don't take it to heart. I was just training the permies here on how to treat recruitment agents. Mind you - the one you got lost marks for accusing you of being a headhunter, since that's what the run of the mill agents like to think of themselves.
            Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

              You're clearly not cut out for recruitment.

                Maybe he should try himself as real estate agent?
