Agree strongly. Lots of spam from "recruiters" who scrape the jobs postings from the sites with positive relationships with Intel, Honeywell, GD, and Orbital and repost trying to hijack a commission.

blah blah blah. Doesn't mean anything to me or Mike, who started this thread with a "what do I do with my life" post, personally. I'm not employed by those companies you're talking about. Even if I was, are they going to let go all of their people? Doubt it. Again, too much taking what the "media" is saying to heart, which are bits and pieces, taken totally out of context, of stuff that means something to Ben Bernanke and William Donaldson but nothing to me.
