So I am now into my second week with this 911 job. So far so good as far as the work goes. However, I am noticing more and more that this is a very political job and that sucks hardcore. Some issues I have.

1. Male employees are not allowed to have any piercings of any kind. Although nobody will be discriminated against due to any non merit issue. As in piercings have nothing to do with my capability to do the job. Therefore it is non merit.

2. Employee's are not allowed to get tatoo's and to get one is grounds for dismissal

3. I got a lecture today because I said a policy is retarded. Yet, my trainer insults nearly every caller when she gets off the phone with them. "fucking idiot" "how stupid was he". She even called an 11 year old boy an idiot because he got a colar stuck around his neck. IMO he is a kid. Kids do things like that. Doesnt mean you degrade them.

4. I was turned down originally for the job due to medical reasons. I re-read through the app and found the following:

Applicants are considered for all positions, and employees are treated during employment without regard
to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, marital status or veteran status, medical condition or
handicap. As employers/government contractors, we comply with government regulations and affirmative
action responsibilities.


Now I bolded the part that I have issue with. Now please tell me if I am misunderstanding this?

5. By being a member of this site it is grounds for immediate dismissal. If I were to go to a strip club it would also be grounds for dismissal.

6. They have this big ol' thing that you have to be very open to critism and vise versa. So being open to my trainer critisizing me and me her.(or other employee's etc) Well as some know I build sites and do a bit of scripting on the side. I took a look at thier website and found that all data submitted via a comment form was completely public. There were emails, personal phone numbers, addresses, usernames, passwords, confidential discussions etc. So being the nice employee I am I brought it to thier attention. Instead of acknowledging it the guy gets ticked off. He also got ticked off that I brought an incompatibilty issue with the firefox web browser up too. It was a simple fix. Change a 1 to a 3 and it will work fine on internet explorer and firefox. His response was we dont care about fire fox. you know that tiny tiny 15% of all internet users that use firefox.


Now you may wonder why I am still working there. Well, I need the job. Not just for me but also since I now have a child to take care of. I therefore have to make sacrafices to make sure that all my finacial responsibilities are met. Take it as you will.

Leave me comments and let me know what you think!

well I think its shit. And I think that if you keep having problems you need to make detailed documentations of who, the time, what the incident was, where it happened and if it keeps up or they threaten to fire you, go to the government office that deals with the 911 circut and make a formal complaint. Sue them if you have to. shit, this is uncalled for and don't be walked all over. Don't let personal opinions and policies at the level you work on interfere with the way the "company" should be run. There are rules for a reason and if they are breaking them they need to be held accountable. No job is worth sacrificing you happyness or your dignity.

PS. I'm waiting to hear about my SG pics.
