Post by B***@aol.comRay Gordon's new book is EXPLOSIVE!
Yeah, I suppose you mean its lack of quality has blown up in your
face!
Post by B***@aol.comRay worked as a secretary for twenty years, on and off. During that
time, he was discriminated against horribly by sex-addicted males who
hired women they wanted to have sex with.
So you claim. I've worked in a lot of places and never saw this
happening. Maybe it's the kind of places that would hire someone like
you, basically they can't get anyone else and have to take what they
can get, or the people who work there can't get work in professional
offices and have to work for the worst places, the ones that do this
sort of thing.
Post by B***@aol.comIn the course of this awful experience,
Yeah, discovering what they got from hiring you had to be an awful
experience. I'm a non-drinker but if I had to work in a place where
someone like you were, I'd probably start learning how.
Post by B***@aol.comRay learned literally every trick in the book that was
used on these women, by dozens of different employers. Ray himself
never needed to hit on women where he worked, because jobs were
tougher to find than sex, but also because he could do better. That
doesn't mean YOU shouldn't benefit from his lessons.
The cost of not having the information in this new book can be a lot
more than $9.99. Look for it on Kindle!!
Well, if you can actually sell this, good luck to you. But I doubt it
will. $9.95 is a hell of a lot of money for a e-book, you have to be
a top-line author to be getting that price. You're a nobody who has
nothing worth reading, considering your inability to respond to people
other than with threats and lawsuits.
Even Harlan Ellison was aware of this. He mentions a couple of
things: he went after AOL because they failed to respond to his
requests to have one of their customers stop carrying unauthorized
reproductions of his books. AOL screwed up because they failed to
keep a working e-mail address to respond to complaints of plagiarism.
Ellison didn't go into litigation at the first drop of a hat, he tried
using e-mail to contact them and get this dealt with. When that
didn't work, he then went to what was left.
The same thing happened in the case of "The Terminator." I found out
later; James Cameron admitted he ripped off some of Ellison's material
in order to create the movie. Armed with this Ellison got a six
figure settlement and an acknowledgment as a permanent part of the
film's advertising and in the film. Ellison stated that if Cameron
had come to him first, all he would have had to do was include an
acknowledgment and he could have had use of Ellison's works for free.
But you have this nasty habit of first suing people which turns out
your claims have absolutely no merit. You don't lose every single
time if you aren't filing anything but completely frivolous lawsuits.
Besides, if someone is competent, it doesn't matter, they can hit on
women (politely) and either not get fired (If you stop when asked,
that does not constitute sexual harrassment and there's no grounds for
the employer to be found liable, and a lot of employers are not going
to care as long as it doesn't interfere with the workplace), find
another job, or else hunt for women at places where you're not
employed.
For a large number of people they don't have the time to go out and
mingle (the Internet has changed this a bit but it's still not the
same as meeting someone face to face) and the one place it's easiest
to find someone is at work. Office romance is so common that a lot of
places either have policies to deal with it or have removed rules on
people who are married working in the same office or in a supervisory
capacity (because one or both of them would have to quit now that they
decided to stop merely dating or living together but to actually get
married).
When you get to higher level people doing complicated technical jobs,
a lot of them are not replaceable cogs and losing one of them for non-
business reasons means the expense of loss of their training and
experience, of hiring someone new, of the reduced productivity until
they come up to speed - every place does things a little bit different
and until you're familiar with the way they operate there you're not
as productive - and the potential costs if the new person doesn't
quite cut it and you have to start over.
So the rules had to change to recognize this, because you can't simply
lose expensive talent to your competitors because you have some
antiquated rule against workplace romance where there's no misconduct
involved. (Non-compete clauses aren't necessarily relevant; some
people have refused to agree to them and in some places (like
California for one) they're unenforceable.)
Besides, if you're a woman it's very common that guys will ask you out
and such, it's usually considered friendly and as long as it isn't
overbearing or pushy, you usually take it as an indication you're
attractive and you expect it to happen. A lot of women like certain
types of men and work in places that those types work there
specifically to find a guy of the type she likes. Or rather, to let
him think he found her.
