Let's summarize why I still think $150 for worker creation is fine
- Worker creation requires LTM and results in 80% ($120) be returned to
the worker after 90 days. This the worker effectively costs $30
- Those workers that don't know that, shouldn't be allowed to work for
BitShares but instead learn the very basics about how the system
works, FIRST. Alternatively, we could tell people that they get pay
$120 after 90 days with no strings attached
- Also, the actual fee can be offset by a slightly higher pay (slightly
as in 30$)
- If you apply for a regular job offer you also need to send letters,
visit the people and contribute time and money (sometimes even more
than $30)
- I would even go so far and ask for WAY more than $150, not to prevent
an attack vector but to have the option to do the following:
a) ask every worker to pay $1k
b) get every worker approved if it only follows some formal
requirements
c) let the worker proof that he can deliver in the time it takes to
pay him tha $1k (*80%)
d) if he doesn't deliver at all, he can be fired even before we payed
him back the whole fee.
if he does deliver only little, we can keep the work, and fire him
after he received the initial fee (like a trial period)
if he is awesome, pay him to get him work more!
So .. what is on the side of disadvantages:
- "It is a barrier of entry": I don't think so, if we sell this feature
properly and educate them about the 80% charge back
Anything else?
