  1. Re:Privacy/Safe harbor on Facebook Finds Grass Greener In Ireland · · Score: 1

    .... I ewould tink that since Ireland is a memeber o the E, as most o EU probably regrets since the Lisbon treaty was shot down, yes they would be compliant with the EU privacy laws. Or is there anotehr angle you were shooring for?

  2. As someone who's in IT in Ireland.... on Facebook Finds Grass Greener In Ireland · · Score: 1
    I can see where they are coming from with this. Ireland has so many attractions BESIDES the GUinness (Jameson FTW!) that it is very easy to attract talent - for a while.

    Most companies in IT here operate with baby burnig - grab, use, discard. Or grab and use before they run off for whatever reason.

    I myself work for a large American company and since I have an intense attitude problem, I keep hanging round - but I see the patterns evolving all around me. I know peple who work for M$, Google. etc here and theyhave attested to something similar - Ireland is a tax haven but employee nightmare, so as a result, the only way that works is either the company giving immense amounts of benefits or accepting an insanely high turnover rate in staff. My company gives decent bnefits, and even so the average rate of employees is 8 months - grand majority just stay for one 11 month contract and then take off.

    ... bugger if I know, it jsut seemed like an appropriate insult at the time! XD with some careful backthinking, however, i believe it means someone who jsut waddles around on top of being a complete arse.
