    It has gotten so bad, I am now getting calls from recruiters calling FROM india for jobs in the US. WTF IS GOING ON ? The phone numbers are US based, but the connection is always crappy. When asked where they are calling from, they say the company name. When asked 'where are they physically calling from?', they say india. Anybody else experiencing this?

    How many times are you going to try and bring this up?

    Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

        Good thing we don't have a "tediously bringing up the same subject" vote, isn't it? :laugh:

                The OP may be repeating himself ad nauseum, but I don't think that this is spam, or abusive. You always have the option of ignoring his messages.

                If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack. --Winston Churchill

                    Looks like an outsourced/offshored recruiting division. And no, no one's ever called me this way - I presume it's because I haven't given my number out on job sites. :)

                        Yes. A longer answer would require the soapbox.

                            I don't consider myself s troll. This is one of two posts I made to CP. I'm just pissed off and even more disappointed that the children working today don't even realize how screwed they are or care.
