I don't know who posted the original response, but any "professionals" who
refuse to spend 2-3 dollars on a phone call to investigate whether a
product, technology, or technique can improve their value are the ones who
give this field a bad name.
You'll have to excuse me, but I'm not in a forgiving mood...I just handed in
my two week notice last night to a gig that I like VERY much because my
agency is now a week behind in my pay for the 4th time in 4 months (last
time they finally paid me over two weeks late) and won't even consider a
buyout of my contract so I can go direct hire as a manager.
BTW...I'm available to interview immediately and my manager will give a
superb reference...seriously.
