Oh, I've gotten so many e-mails from them! Usually listing jobs so far away, I just wasn't interested. But a few days ago, they sent an e-mail with about 36 job offerings, all within 45 miles of me! Wow! Boy howdy! Goody, goody! Signed right up. Applied for job after job after job. AND, to top it all off, they promised an e-mail with
even more jobs within 24 hours!!!
Oh, excuse me, did I say "applied for job after job after job". Let me correct that. I TRIED to apply for them. Since I am already (surprise, surprise!!) signed up with all the companies, what I actually ended up doing was e-mailing my schedulers with "hey, this is on the job board, but not on MY job board. I'd like to apply for
this shop, if possible. Thanks!" (with, of course, the job itself in the subject line).
Well, heads up, folks -- those jobs are NOT anywhere close to me. They aren't on my job board (or jobslinger or presto) because they don't EXIST.
Of course, I'll cancel -- no harm, no foul. But all I have to make a living with is my TIME, and my time is
valuable -- and this was a HUGE waste of time!
Oh, yes, that promised e-mail with more jobs? It was BLANK. After "here's your latest job listings for your area" just stinking BLANK. No jobs listed at all.
Rant over.
Now I'll just quietly go into the other room and kick myself!
