      The blog article I posted is a really interesting read. It sounds like they are really exploiting their workers to one step above slavery. Too bad it affects the disabled, elderly, college students, and stay at home moms.

      It's unfortunate that it affects the disabled, elderly and moms. College students choose their own vulnerability and have no one to blame but themselves. I don't have the capability to feel badly for them in that case.

        That really changes your perception of Google, doesn't it!

          Interesting turn of events on how Ars Technica is no longer available. Coincidence?

                  I read both the ars articles(the one about conditions and the one about the firing). The comments in yesterday's article were infiltrated by many people from LeapForce defending the company. 20 somethings showing loyalty to a shitty corporation that pays them 13.50 an hour with no benefits while the ceo is making millions each year.
                  The company exists solely so Google doesnt have to have these people as their own employees. Their only customer is google. It is a rather disgusting thing.

                  Rare to see Moonshark these days.

                    If it is like a lot of companies with those kinds of employees, quite often they force them to type up responses. I know companies that do that with those "best places to work" surveys for Forbes. They check their answers to make sure that they win year after year.

                      This sounds like India to me. Unbelievable they are able to get away with treating people like this here in the United States.

                      Sounds a lot like the people that talk kids into selling magazines across the country.
