(MERGED) XLIBRIS Discussions

[missingyouso]

---

hhahaahha Xlib is not perfect, but i guess no company is. believe me, though, i learned a lot when i was there. i have skills that i use for extra income now. i labored for more than 2 years. I worked from mondays to fridays, the mandatory saturdays (usually 3 Saturdays a month), sometimes even Sundays (voluntary ni ha just to reach the needed word count), as well as do overtime (which was unpaid for a long time), lots of overtime. minimum of 2 hours almost every day. normal work hours was 9am to 6pm. my longest overtime was until 2am, and then i worked again at 9am. that's how dedicated the prod people are. i learned the true meaning of hard work, but i didn't mind. i was passionate about my job. the pay, although we grumbled about it, was in the whole scheme just secondary to the reason we were there. the deadlines, my god. hahhaha. the management people were A-holes, but that's not the reason i got out. i would have continued working, coz i loved my job, except that something else happened (personal, not work-related). i work full-time in a much better company now, and then i freelance also. so my point here is that Xlib still gave me one of the best times in my life. the pay may not equate the effort that we gave, but i gained great friends, i have strong skills that other publishing companies value, and perhaps as a result, i earn better now.

so no regrets! i still love you, Xlibris, but we cannot be friends. you treated me like crap. you're like that strict teacher we all had in our school years that we all learned a lot from but can only bitch about, but hey, no hard feelings, okay? haha

mao diay ni ang Xlibris.... ang sales are they forced to come on saturday as well?

i think mga designers ra ang forced to work sa saturday. para nako dili ni maayo. gihatag na gani nmo ang 5 ka adlaw sa ila nya ila pa jud kwaun ang usa sa imo 2 ka adlaw. binuang.

the contract states that we are paid 48 hrs a week. so in effect we agree to working 6 days a week if management asks us to.

that's why daghan moingon nga dako lagi ug basic but there's a "catch".

so naa rajud na if mo agree ka or dili, kay naa may lain work available sa uban companies.


sa sales we have 1 mandatory saturday, nya kung layo jud kaayo sa targets it might be 2 saturdays.
yes kapoy jud work ug sat but it brings food to the table and satisfies our basic needs.

Xlib salary w/ benefits is great compared to the average 6k minimum pay or worse.

Sa mga wa pa kasulay ug minimum pay, mas grabe pa ang working conditions didto, daghan pa mandatory OT nga mas way klaro. pareho ra gihapon sa call center daghan ug demands. we should be thankful of the pay these companies offer.

so maski asa jud nga trabaho, kapoy jud ug naay politika. pili lang asa at nga company malipay.
naa nalang nato asa ta comfortable ug matulon ang trabaho.

I agree, sobra najud na ingon ana ba just like I said sa lain na thread, its like you are "use and abuse". What is the truth about the hype na dagko daw commission dra sa Xlib? (sales)

di na hype bai. tinuod na.
i work with people nga ang ako 1 month nga sweldo, tax ra nila.

and di pani sila "cream of the crop".
