i can't let this one go by
Feb. 9th, 2007 12:29 amI'm guessing you're "stealth" because you don't have the stones to face the brunt of ridicule over your outrageously low offer of $55k for someone to do *everything* for your office. You're detailing work that will take, at a minimum, 14 hours a day. No one person is going to be able to work that much and do a GOOD job at it.
Get a goddamned clue. Hell, get a six-pack of clues. Hire enough people for the job and PAY THEM WHAT THEY'RE WORTH. You need two people: an IT guru and an office manager. You are NOT going to get anyone worth more than shit for $55k, in either job, let alone both. Your company is in a crucial stage, and getting an idiot or an incompetent now is going to hamstring your company. You will regret it, guaranteed. You should be looking at about $70k for the office manager and $85k for the IT person, MINIMUM. Don't fucking argue with me! Just fucking do it.
A dog walker? You people are fucking insane. It's not 1998 anymore. You aren't going to get naïve chumps who will work for stock options. Get real!

Nothing there makes sense at all.
