Hiring Newcomers To The Country

A manager told me
she had recently hired
an employee who had just
immigrated to the country.

She was happy,
telling me
that new employee
was unlikely to leave.

Because that new employee
would be trapped.

She wouldn’t have the country experience
or connections
or other resources to move.
And she would likely be afraid
of f*cking up
her immigration status.

The manager didn’t say that
but the situation was obvious.

If that is your reason
for hiring people
new to the country,
you suck.

You suck as a human
and you suck as a manager.

Create a place
people want to work at.
Don’t trap people.
