At those wages please tell me they were not given Any economic development monies from the State. Our Focus should be on Higher Education and Wages above $ 20.00 per hour with benefits. We have a local Economy that already provides numerous Low Wage, Low Skill. Low Benefits Jobs where the Employers Workers require subsidies by the Taxpayers and regardless of how hard they work they remain below the Poverty Level.
Since those wages don't qualify for state and county grants that is not a problem here.
Fact is there are many people that have little to no skills, mostly by their own choosing and this is the type of jobs they can do. Nothing wrong with that. Any added jobs is a good thing in this valley.
Every job cannot pay big money, those that buy the service or product cannot afford to pay for that service or product if it does.
There has to be "worker bees".
I thought the last call center that promised 500 jobs in vegas would do it, drive by decauter and 20 cars out front. I bet they have less than 100. Tax breaks ect and not following through.
It's discouraging to know the going rate for some jobs is so low, but when people have been out of work and their unemployment benefits (if they were lucky enough to have them) run out, any job is better than no job.
Its discouraging to know that people feel any job is better than no job AFTER the welfare runs out. take take take until you are not allowed to take anymore then contribute. Nice.
i hope these jobs work out or the company is legit . according to the article they didnt even name the copany . so many of these call center jobs have a quota to meet each day. i hope this isnt a collection agency because having to be on the phone trying to get a payment is not fun especially when the boss is overhearing the discussion . if you dont do well your gone real quick
