| Shaw U.S. Employee
I am a shaw us employee... and i want to tell you how worried i am that i am going to loose my job. I work for the Shaw U.S. Helpdesk... we only have seven tsr's here. Shaw sucks sausage, mucho sausage. Ever since they bought us the have been holding us on a string. We found out about the sale from a already released news paper. My boss took us all into a room and told us. I was so worried. anyways one of those cable systems in texas, kingwood cable is pretty much the largest. Our company was founded in the seventies by a local, when moffat bought us we pretty much took over their internet operations and then shaw came in, eh. I hate canadians. | |

| This shows just how much shaw really cares about its customers. The pay is already low enough around here, averaging about 10 - 12 bucks an hour. Then we get word that "oh if you want to work for shaw you owe us 5 - 15 thousand for your meter, van, tools, ladder, and anything else we can think of." I want to hear from a Shaw canada employee if they really use the "unit based employee" model?? So, customers of shaw, your tech support is only worth barely above min. wage. To get your service hooked up we are going to send someone out to your house, pay them min. wage, hire right off the street, that has only 2 -3 weeks of on the job training, and hope that the install goes good with no problems. Got questions about security, routing, DNS, or exactly what does a port in the TCP/IP stack do forget it. Stories have been floating around of several installs taking 4 - 6 hours just to get the network card to work. Oh well, what do you expect for 10 bucks an hour? | |
