      A place where good customer service and trying to do the right thing would have been universally appreciated 😞

      What's the job in Salt Lake ?

      MSP shop that's part of the NTG extended ecosystem. It's a lot like your role now, but not PoS systems, more general IT support. It's a physical office location there. Some local customer on site work, mostly telephone and online remote support. General tech helpdesk.

      Oh I gotcha, Yeah sounds better than what I'm doing here.

      Yeah, would have been perfect.

        Oh Well.
        Maybe I should just quit and start working on NTG sales here in Omaha.

            Just asking an honest question, @WrCombs how many jobs have you applied for since starting work with this employer?

                Can't we just get past the fact things there are the way they are, he has no power over any of it, and isn't able to expose any of it for fear of prematurely losing his job? I mean, what is there left to discuss of this?

                This has been going on ever since I started this job over a year ago.

                Why do you stay there and continue to deal with their shit?

                Honestly? no idea.. At this point I dont have experience to go anywhere else or do anything else.

                Right, he wants to leave. But not badly enough. That's why these threads matter. He has bosses above him that try to convince him that they aren't as bad as they are. He's trapped there for now, he can't just leave. If he was free to relocate we had a job for him two weeks ago that would have been a zero discussion "here's your new job" situation. But he couldn't take it. He's in a terrible market without a lot of experience.

                This is news to me. . .

                We knew you couldn't move so didn't rub it in your face. But we had a guaranteed slot for you in Salt Lake City.

                Same scenario here. I’d hire him for my part time plus more hours job but he hast to get to St. Louis and I know he can not do that.

                    I called to follow up on my Applications, but was told they'd call me for an interview.

                      Ah.

                      Well in cases like that I would just keep applying to other posted jobs. They very likely could've found a candidate for the position at your price point and with more experience (or whatever) and opt'd to not follow through on the process.

                                None of which called me back or send me an email .

                                Did you followup with any of those 4 that you thought the interview went good?

                                I never got the interview - thats what I meant by No call back or email .
                                I called to follow up on my Applications, but was told they'd call me for an interview.

                                Ah.

                                Well in cases like that I would just keep applying to other posted jobs. They very likely could've found a candidate for the position at your price point and with more experience (or whatever) and opt'd to not follow through on the process.

                                I'm looking at a few jobs.

                                Don’t look. Apply.

                                have to find one to apply to- so im looking for jobs to apply to.

                                In which city or area are you looking for jobs?

                                          Windows 10 is NOT a free upgrade and hasn't been for quite some time.
                                          While Microsoft still keeps the update/licensing server active (for some unknown reason), they have repeatedly stated that only machines licensed PRIOR to July 29, 2016 are actually legally entitled to this.

                                          Anyone upgrading to Windows 10 "for free" after this date is in direct violation of their TOS.

                                          Is the Windows 10 free upgrade offer still available?
                                          The Windows 10 free upgrade through the Get Windows 10 (GWX) app ended on July 29, 2016.
                                          Do I still qualify for the free upgrade offer if I've already downloaded Windows 10 to a USB drive, but haven't yet upgraded my device?
                                          All upgrades must have completed and reached the "Welcome" screen by 11:59 PM UTC-10 (Hawaii) on July 29, 2016; this is one worldwide point in time.

                                            Still is, for sure.
