Dear Google staffing team

[fanf]

Would you all kindly stop spamming me and every other vaguely technical person with job advertisements. If you read my web site instead of just glancing at it you will know that I am not looking for a job. If you checked your own pimp database perhaps you would find out that I have told you to go away five times already. Perhaps you could also fix your stupid auto-responder so that it doesn't emit spam blowback.

No love,
Tony.

OMG, at last, someone who doesn't actually want to work for NewBorg. I would call you my soulmate, but somehow, I fear rmc28 might take offence.

Hey, I am at least conflicted about the possibility :-)

They let me out of the campus this weekend. Clearly I'm just not cool enough.

Mwhahaha.

Nope, not offended. It's shocking isn't it, how fanf would rather stay with his enjoyable job, 30 minute walk to work (or 10 min bike ride if we ever get the bike fixed), and a flexible-working policy that lets him spend significant amount of time with his infant son.

They haven't asked me, but I'm not hard-core technical enough for the techie positions and not experienced enough for the project management/business analysis positions. At least last time I looked, before I came to fully appreciate the joys of a family-friendly policy and a 10-min bike ride to work.

I was extremely put off the idea of fanf working for Google after hearing about krabbe's and knell's recruitment experiences. Luckily he agreed with me (possibly even more vehemently).

Want to? Well, if they're willing to pay me... I did interview with them earlier this year and seem to be the closest to "feels like academia" in the private sector. I wouldn't mind getting a cushy networks/sysadmin job or a uni, again.
