Let go
Maybe it's to make room for the developer's nieces, nephews and grandkids who need jobs.

Of course there was a reason. There is always a reason. However, the person let go is often not told. Therefore, "I was let go for no reason".

Here in TV it is a sellers market so the need for "top of the line highly experienced" people might be slightly less because selling homes here really isn't a professionals job but just a sales job. If "A" doesn't sell it "B" will. |

Florida is a right to work state...business decisions are made every day. The Properties of The Villages is a Business and they run as such. If an employee does not fit the bill then it is time for them to go. There are never hard feelings...feelings don't come into it at all...merely a business decision. Before you work for The Villages you have to accept the fact that you could get let go at any time and they do not have to give you a reason. The company is taking a different direction is all they have to say. There is no obligation on anyone's part BUT they do make you sign a non-compete clause. So think twice before you jump! Working for The Villages is not always the best fit! The Realtors ( those that work for RE/MAX, ERA, Realty Executives, Foxfire, and the like) do just fine and you get the same results, most of the time better results. The successful Realtors that work hard are the go getters and they are independent from The Villages...they take it one step farther and take the code of ethics and core law and yes they join the National Association of Realtors and uphold the values.

Isn't Right to Work laws relate to Union shops??? You have the right to work without joining the union if the company is unionized. |

I just checked the website and started to count agents. There are six agents per row so I started to count: 6, 12, 18...At 90 I got bored and stopped and was only partly through the alphabet.
In the real world, outside the bubble, a small percentage of agents make most of the money. Don't know if that is true for the agents working for TV. Does anyone know if Villages agents are employees or independent contractors? My guess is managing brokers and support staff are likely employees and the agents independent contractors.

Just heard from my barber.
Evidently he was about to be sacked, but was kept on at the last minute. It was a close shave. |

Villages' agents are independent contractors and get a 1099. They receive no benefits. |

So, they are independent contractors and not employees. Hence laws that govern the relationship between employers and their employees do not apply to them.
