Ready To Join Stambush!

Giving Staffing a Good Name

August 5th, 2011


Is Authoritarianism Afraid of You?
 
Because you are in such high demand, authoritarian employers are afraid to be themselves around you. I am not naming anyone in particular, but we have all seen fliers trying to recruit you. They go great lengths to tell you how employee friendly they are. The only problem is, their words aren't really the truth, and we all know it. So, why do people/companies lie? They lie to hide the truth because they either want to push their agenda or they want to get out of trouble. In the context of recruiting, they want to both sell you on the wonders oftheir company get out of the trouble of not having enough therapists.
 
So in answer to the heading above, my belief is that Authoritarianism is afraid of you to some degree, and we at Stambush are happy to be your island of non-authoritarianism. Here, the authoritarians do not have as much control over you as they would if you were their employee. However, the authoritarians continue to try to bully everyone around them: their staff, their directors, and even Stambush. I am not talking about a lot of facilities, but we do get our share of pressure from the authoritarians. Guess where we get the strength to resist? We get it knowing that you are on our side.
 
So finally, thank you. Together, we may not be giving authoritarianism a beating, but at least we are more than holding our own. We may not change the world, but I do believe we are helping make the world a better place by not giving in to the authoritarian belief system. I, like you, do not believe that someone has to dominate and someone has to submit just to have an efficient workplace and business.

Happy Hour August 18th
 
As usual Happy Hour will be from 5-7pm. We are planning an August 18 Happy Hour from 5pm – 7pm. But this time we are looking at having our company/family meeting at a place called 300. We don’t have it confirmed yet so I won’t give the address, but I can say there is supposed to be good food, booze and bowling. Yes, bowling.
