Thanks Vicki I too am one of those programmers who can't move because my 10 acre farm is paid for. What we should really be talking about is some sort of push to do more telecommuting even for those who live near or in the state of client companies looking for either perm or contract telecommute workers. In consideration of Gas, Real Estate Market, Stock Market, price of food, and the job market in general; companies need more telecommute workers.
I strayed from the subject at hand, so here goes a hint in the Job title saves the programmer and the company from wasting time feeling out each other when a. the company will not consider telework b. the worker will not or can not move c. both of the above d. the company has not even thought about allowing teleworkers(this is the most prevelant of the four) my two cents :) -----Original Message----- From: Vicky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 18, 2008 8:37 PM To: CF-Jobs Subject: Friendly Request to Employers To all potential employers... This is just a friendly request that you please make it crystal clear as to whether you will or will not consider hiring remote programmers / telecommuters. I realize it might seem obvious that a company only wants on-site personnel when the advert notes in what state company HQ resides or by what subway station the office is located. However, it has been my personal experience that facts such as these do not necessarily indicate anything specific. There are many talented programmers keeping an eye on this list who need jobs but cannot, for whatever reason, relocate at this time. It would economize your time and ours if we categorically knew whether or not to submit a resume to your now undoubtedly huge pile. A quick "telecommuters welcome" or "telecommuters need not apply" at the top of the listing would be most appreciated (by me, anyway. I don't presume to speak for everyone!) "Not a sermon. Just a thought!" :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;203748912;27390454;j Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Jobs/message.cfm/messageid:6797 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Jobs/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.13
