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?

    Spent some time this weekend with the wife, and spent some time away from tech stuff, which was needed to get away from my tech frustrations at least. The other frustrations I was feeling on Friday were professional and they’re not going to change any time soon, that’s for sure, but at least I don’t…
