Last time it was me that harassed the recruiter for posting, this time I'm going to take the opportunity to defend him. Leave it alone. He's posting a job opening. So far we have one guy that does this, and he's polite enough to do it only occasionally. This battle has gone full circle I don't know how many times, and each time it has always ended with the collective acceptance of the group allowing him to post. Can we just leave it at that? Do we have to get immature about it? Do I need to flush out 20 emails of retarded comments? Also, when and if those of us who are interested decide to respond, it would be appreciated if that response could be private and not public? -----Original Message----- From: plug@arcticmail.com [mailto:plug@arcticmail.com] Sent: Thursday, December 07, 2000 5:19 PM To: plug-discuss@lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us Subject: Re: C++ Developer Opening No, David's the guy standing next to the guy in the red suit. David's the one in the tee- shirt with the Federal Witness Protection Program insignia and the words "You don't know me" on both sides. FWIW, I agree with David on "raising the bar" with respect to permitting recruiters/pimps to post "ho's wanted" messages to the list. I SERIOUSLY doubt that many recruiters would care enough about Linux/*BSD/The Free Software Movement to physically attend the meetings. A mailing list is simply a near-zero-cost highly-targetted advertising medium. For those who say "I want a job but I can't find a pimp, so I want recruiters to spam mailing lists," there's an entire INTERNET chock full of pimps around the world willing to care for you. Sites like dice.com and monster.com would prolly be a good start.
