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?
