No dice

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

So somewhere in the area of 8 months ago I setup a “job search agent” on Dice.com. I was having it send me the IT jobs that were being listed in the Columbus area, since I was thinking about doing some job searching. (It has been put off until next year) Only the search agent never actually sent me anything and I forgot about it. About a month ago, all of the sudden, these emails started showing up in my inbox every day. Well I don’t really care about this job search agent anymore so I went and turned the search agent off at the dice website. They still kept coming. I used Mailwasher to bounce the messages back to dice, they still keep coming….

Finally I went and deleted my profile entirely today, maybe now they’ll stop coming?

    I’ve been trying this morning to install the Symantec Corporate AV Server to our file server but I’m running into a problem that’s obviously going to require some reasearch, ugh! I initiate the server deploy and it starts ok, it gets to 100% of “copying files” and then just hangs. It does nothing from there…

    Looks like the site and all the info for Gnomedex 3 is live. Speakers aren’t listed yet, so I guess we’ll all have to stay tuned for that one. Still no idea whether I’ll be there or not. I’m job searching, I can’t guarantee anything more than a week or two out, really. It sort…
