Product quality is not exceptional. Print is good, flag material is good; yet the pair of hand flags that I received had warped pole stems that were likely 'forced' inside the oversized packaging box during handling. Should have exchanged them for replacements, but repaired them with tiny rubber bands, then locking them tightly against one another to unbend the warp.

Do Not Rely on this Lousy Company! I am disgusted once again. Dependent prescription for an auto-immune disease. Received text that the prescription was received back in September of 2022. I phoned on 12/2/2022 to follow-up with this 'announcement.' Agent told me that the order had been canceled. Dang! They did not have the professional responsibility to let me know! I could have searched another avenue to receive my dependent meds! Sadly, I'm contracted through my employer to this swamp donkey diaper nugget of a company.

Contacted on my private mobile number by a CAT so-called "Senior Recruiter". The Sr. Recruiter did not leave a message and only hung up when prompted. I phoned the number back out of curiosity only to hear a thick foreign accent on the other end from a Texas area code phone. I immediately realized that this is either a miscall or a telemarketing situation. The individual phoned back immediately and began inquiring about my job situation. Before I could finish any sentence, he was on to the next question for his call purpose. He began reading from a job description, even pausing to ask me if I had experiences in acronyms that as a professional PMP, I'm not aware of what they are since they aren't within scope of my work. Here's an example of how the conversation played, only with the thickest foreign Middle Eastern accent you can imagine, "Do you have COPT experience?" My reply: " Well, COPT isn't an acronym in my field of study, I suppose it might be related to Business Analysis. What does it.?" - cut off by the so-called Sr. Technical Recruiter - "Do you have Casualty & Property experience?" My reply:" Yes. Only 20 years"- cut off by the so-called Sr. Technical Recruiter - "What is your salary requirement?" My reply: "Well it depends on if they are requiring PMP or Agile certification. Which is" - cut off by the so-called Sr. Technical Recruiter - "How many years experience in project management do you have?"- Me: Hang up. Then, then the flood of emails began. This has got to be the rudest, most unprofessional wannabe included recruiter to ever phone me. Stay away from Shawn Spicer (LOL... and my name Makeesh Patel) with a Texas area code claiming to be from CAT Technologies, Although the company is based in NJ with headquarters in India, this minion is swampy and was obviously handed a script and told to NOT come into their NJ office for a reason... we now know why.

TEKSystems - Federal Law Violators made up of ignorant recruiters and lazy executives.
This review is based on my historical experience with TEK Systems, dating back to Nov. 2012, when TEKSystems first solicited their pseudo promises of resources, seeking information from me about my ‘goals' and my resume. Based on their own admission, my information was recorded in TEK Systems database for future marketing purposes, some of which might include selling my contact information to spam marketing entities.

What I, as well as others in my circle of trade professionals, have learned is that TEK Systems aren't interested in actually placing clients in permanent positions; rather they are interested in assembling a pool of qualified candidates that they can outsource to one of the clients that they've somehow managed to build a relationship with. This began nearly a decade ago back in 2012 when I was contacted by "Claire Ashley" c atchley at teksystems.com was ‘phishing' for information to build her TEK System database. Needless to say, once Claire Ashley collected my information, she was never heard from again. Two years later, another TEK Systems ‘recruiter' (Morgan Bellin m bellin at teksystems.com) contacted me to offer me "great opportunities." However, when challenged on the specifications of these "great opportunities," she disappeared like a kitchen roach when the lights come on. The solicitation didn't end there. Then one year later, I learned that Morgan Bellin had handed off my contact information to "Sam" Laughli. He too made promises of "great opportunities" and requested that I send him my ‘latest' resume. I did, but ironically, he disappeared like a kid on a milk carton. One year later, and here comes another creepy TEK Systems ‘recruiter' by the name of Arieon Ford a ford at teksystems.com. After asking for my ‘latest resume,' I created a variable resume that featured another name. I have seen a steady stream of emails from recruiters referencing my planted variable name in their greeting. This is evidence that perhaps TEK Systems either sold my contact information to other spammers or so-called ‘job agencies' OR TEK Systems had stored my information and their web security was breeched. Either is both unacceptable to my profession and my candidacy.

In October of 2021, another leech by the name of Jessica Campbell j ecampbell at teksystems.com wanted to "touch base" to see what my goals were for the year and phish for information to add to her unprotected database.

I was contacted by an inefficient HR representative named Lyndsay Hamlin who made a startling confession: She had never read the "CAM-Spam Act of 2003" and though TEKsystems are in constant violation of this law by sending spam mail disguised as 'job opportunities' which do not exist. However, Hamlin stated that "(I) don't believe we are in violation of the law." Idiot.

The common denominator that exists with all of these TEK System ‘recruiters' aside from their ZERO % success rate of placing a professional PMP, CSM, and PMI-ACP project manager in any position, is the fact that every TEK System recruiter's email are in violation of Federal Law. As a real estate law expert, I have studied the CAM-Spam Act of 2003 extensively and this company is in violation of the act because their recruiters do not include an ‘opt-out' / ‘unsubscribe' option to their solicitation, as required by the Federal Law. Failure to comply, just FYI, is a $44,000 fine per instance. Luckily here in Florida, the state has an Internet Crime Center that seeks and finds habitual violators, and fines them in accordance to US Federal Law.

I asked Jessica Campbell how does she feel working for a company that violates Federal Law and might be selling candidate's personal information, and have a ZERO% success rate placing professional project managers like myself? Jessica silently slid back under the mangy carpet of which she came.

According to Webster's Dictionary, a street procurer is defined as "an agent for prostitutes who collects part of their earnings. The procurer may receive this money in return for advertising services, physical protection, or for providing, and possibly monopolizing, a location where the prostitute may engage clients." I ask, what is the difference between a street procurer and the methods of TEK Systems?

Highly UNrecommended.

Discovered an error in one of my Real Estate Law quizzes. Brought it to the attention of Support. They refused to address it. Same error appeared in my final exam. Support ignored the request yet again. Both profoundly effected my grades. Contacted President Britt and all of the college board members. They were too cowardice to admit they'd made a drastic error. Had to file an ethics complaint against President Britt. Their minion Andrew Kachurak gave a 'blanket CYA' response accusing me, the USPS, the Board, and his own co-worker of all lying that the college never received any of my correspondence. Fortunately, the USPS' tracking capabilities put a cork in Andrew's spout of sewage. He later admitted in a personal email that he was wrong; yet unfortunately left his stink over at the BBB. Not only does this school give quizzes and final exams with bogus information, they hide like roaches when the kitchen lights come on when faced with the reality that they screwed up. Highly UNRECOMMENDED!

In my Bing search for tree removal service, I foolishly chose one of those 'directory-tag' services. This one, simply titled 'improvenet.com' claimed to have been in business since 1996 and assured me that someone would reach out to me within "48 hours" and that I WOULD receive responses from 1-4 service providers. They threw the line and I sunk my teeth into it. What a fool I was. Spending 10 minutes meticulously writing my requirements and fulfilling all of the baited queries, those are minutes that will never come back in my life. 72 hours later, nothing! Not a single text, call, or email. So they collected information about my contact, my property, and my service-needs. When I sought to find their contact information, it is non-existent. More than likely, a fraudulent company 'disguised' as a service provider online so that they can gather and sell your data. My advice? Use your local yellow pages or ask a neighbor for their advice on finding a home service. Tell these fraudsters to suck sawdust!
