      One wacky thing about the country is the absolute lack of professionalism around how people run businesses. Guys with no business cards. Biz cards with http://yahoo.com  email addresses. Companies with no websites. Phones answered "hello? I'm cooking ; let me get Jim"

      3/ I think this is part of it, but I also think that there's (b) a cultural difference, where out in country people get most of their work from local referrals / word of mouth, also nit-picking is not as common (c) some degree of brain drain to citieshttps://twitter.com/RonColeman/status/1113792771062681600 …

      I think you're just noticing stupid that wouldn't be noticed in the past. Before home computers and printers, you had signs (and resumes, etc.) made by a print shop. Someone behind that counter had an incentive no to be blamed for your stupidity...

      4/ Oh, also, flyers and menus with URLs that lead to dead websites, because they paid some teenager $90 four years ago to build a website and then entirely forgot about it, and the hosting wasn't paid. Seen that a dozen times. sigh

      All of this can be forgiven depending on the kind of business. This is all window dressing. The real problem is companies don't call back after promising to do so. They enter negotiations with no ability to make a counter offer. Lastly they take resumes but only hire friends. https://twitter.com/MorlockP/status/1113791100832108544 …

      6/ I called an excavator once, he said he'd be there on Wednesday. Called him again on Thursday, he said "oh, yeah, I almost forgot!". Then said he'd be there on Friday. He didn't show on Friday either.

      7/ @LibertyFarmNH and I now use the phrase "I almost forgot" to mean "I TOTALLY forgot".

          Currently in the midst of a job hunt, can confirm that common sense and basic, garden-variety professional communication no longer exist.
