An interesting background you have there. I see the QA reference on your KESU gig - and that's probably why they contacted you. But, it sucks how they depend on the programs to find the candidates (the program may be pretty good - but, it ain't great - as I hate it when they contact me for 3D graphics programming - only because I have programming on my resume - as well as work in 3D graphics - but, that's from the artistic end).
Sorry to hear of your "fall from grace". Don't feel too bad. Our boss today tells a group of us in a meeting (QA Tech's and Programmers) - that our co. does great in processing outsourcing (we processed other co's data using our systems) - but that we SUCK in Programming! Now it's the biggest joke around the co. here - and all the Chinese programmers around me can't stop using Suck in almost every other word they say - except all the other words are Chinese - so I don't understand the rest... -K- -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Virgil Bierschwale Sent: Thursday, March 11, 2010 11:12 AM Long story, but probably a headhunter finding my resume somewhere. Here is my background: ...1984 - KESU Systems (electronic tech, promoted to QA Engineer, promoted to Document Control and Internal Auditor, promoted to Research and Development.. Talk about falling from grace <grin> Yep, I know what you mean... That's why I get a very big kick out of people who say that there are 2.3 million jobs available in America. Many seem to me to be double or triple postings by head hunters, not of the American variety. Of course, when you factor in that there are about 154 million taxpayers that work on a 1040 basis according to the IRS databooks and then you factor in 20 percent unemployment according to shadowstats.com, well 2.3 million jobs will do nothing when there are 30 million out of work.

It seems to me that it is NOT a programming job - and has nothing to do with VFP (although they didn't seem to state what language the system was being developed). Is this a headhunter you have worked with in the past? Or - is this one of those e-mails that come Out-of-the-Blue, because a headhunter found you resume since some keywords matched??? Just curious... As you probably already know - I am in NY (work in NYC - live on LI). But, I'm surely no QA Eng.! And - FYI - never got a response back from Colorado (hopefully, Virgil, you know what I mean without being really specific in this e-mail)... :-) -K- -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Virgil Bierschwale Sent: Thursday, March 11, 2010 7:45 AM I have no interest in going to new york, but perhaps somebody already up there would be interested, so I'm forwarding this.
