RE: other companies and developers to watch out for
This is better than a Mexican soap opera... Something that apparently few people on this forum know is that it is practically impossible in the United States to successfully pursue legal action for "Libel." I haven't even read what Michael purportedly wrote, which is being considered "libel," but I would advise that any legal fees spent on pursuing a case of libel are wasted funds. On another note, I just confirmed today that our company is now looking to recruit a mid to senior level CF developer to work on our CF9 dev team. Importantly, this person would need to relocate to or be in Troy, Michigan...where you can live like Carlos Slim (going on the Mexican soap opera theme) on the salary of a Carl Smith. -Blake -Original Message- From: Michael Firth [mailto:mftr...@att.net] Sent: Friday, February 04, 2011 3:04 PM To: cf-jobs-talk Subject: Re: other companies and developers to watch out for Today, I was given the response, that the parties still plan to pursue legal action and to ensure that I am paying for the rest of my life regardless of how many apologies I try to make things right.

Re: other companies and developers to watch out for
Really? Now you're REALLY going to quit the list? Sorry, I couldn't resist. I'm sorry, Michael, for your predicament, really I am, but why do you insist on posting about it here. Do you think that is going to engender some legal advise? Ok, here's some legal advice - get a lawyer and stop posting here. Every time you post you open yourself to further legal attacks. Do yourself a favor if you are capable of listening to reason please stop posting here for your own good. So many here have ernestly suggested this course and yet you keep posting. Why? Is it an obsessive addiction to post, or is it because you feel like by doing so you will get someone to offer help? As I indicated before, I never post here because I rarely see much going on, but this particular thread seems to be immortal, and it's not just your fault, but all of ours. On the other hand it is also entertaining, albeit in a sick highway-accident kind of way. I hope it ends up just to a fender bender in the end and no one gets seriously hurt. Lawyer up, Michael, try the Legal Aid Society if you can't afford one on your own, they will do stuff pro-bono...

Michael, Please keep in mind that future employers might Google your name and find these forums. I currently work for one of those companies you have mentioned several times in your rants. I do feel that you need to step back and think about the potential consequences before making posts to any forum that is open such as this. I certainly wouldn't hire you if you contacted me for a job of any kind. I don't know what is going through your head, but maybe you should seek the professional counseling of a psychologist.

Okay this post is going against my better judgment, but here it goes: Mr. Kane, If I understand your email correctly, you are going to sue someone who has been without work for at least a month that I know of for libel. What kind of damages are you trying to recoup? Even if your awarded how will you collect? The individual has already screwed themselves out ever getting gainful employment via cf-jobs and your suit would just further marginalize them into desperation. With that said I have had several very good interactions with cf-jobbers both personal and business. At heart I think we a good group of people slow to anger and eager to help out. I hope we can remain the civil goodhearted folks I've known since joining. Mr. Firth, back away from the keyboard and cf-jobs. Think about what you want accomplish with your words. consider an apology and then volunteering your time on an open source project , blog about what your doing with them and focus on your studies. IMHO you need to rebuild your reputation and respect with this group of folks ad the coldfusion community at large.

Re: other companies and developers to watch out for
I find it fascinating watching these exchanges take place. I used to code with Cold Fusion way back (99-'02) but haven't touched it since, but somehow remained a member of jobs-talk, but not of the general CF-Talk, probably because this list gets generally little traffic. So I guess I am getting only half of the conversation. It's obvious to me that Michael has annoyed a lot of people and doesn't seem to care, but at the same time other members are so affected by messages that otherwise seem benign, that it seems the whole situation has devolved into one that isn't on a professional level but a personal one. I wonder, whatever your opinion of Michael is, what good does it do to vent about it in a public forum, other than to blow of some steam (while at the same time presenting an unprofessional/negative aspect of your own demeanor)? Being on the Internet for abour 20 years now (and BBS's before that) has taught me a few things, some of them certainly useless, but a couple of them hopefully more useful. One is that it's hard to guage the tone of someone and easy to misunderstand meaning online due to lack of body language, etc. Because of this I always try to assume the best of intentions. Even if it's hard to see those positive intentions, I often try to keep from responding immediately myself if my reaction is strong and negative. Waiting until that initial emotional reaction has subsided, I can often think much more clearly and respond in a way that is more constructive than reactive. This is not to say that Michael didn't act unprofessionally, but some of the reaction seemed to be just as unprofessional. I did not see most of his messages on this list (cf-jobs-talk) that I can remember, but if I was seeing them on another list and got annoyed, I'd have either - 1) written the moderator to express my concerns, or 2) sent Michael a private note to express my concerns. Many of you may have done these things to no avail, but my final approach would have had 100% success: 3) create an email rule/filter to remove his messages. It's amazing to me that despite filtering technology like this being around for 20+ years, that ppl would still rather get into long arguments than simply opt out of a certain person's messages or discussion topics. This on a forum of highly tech-savvy folks. Since none of you probably recognize my name, it should be evident that I never post on these lists, and probably won't again for a while if ever, but something moved me to post about this (and perhaps I'll regret it later), so that perhaps some perspective from a semi-objective party might be useful in some way to a few of you. I know there's some irony in the fact I'm suggesting people not speak out here about these things and then doing just that, but just know there have been incidents in the past that I've considered commenting on but haven't, so pershaps this is just my one 'gaff' that proves my general practices are better than this exception ;-) This is really the first time if not ever, than in many years (and memory) that I recall posting about an issue like this. I certainly understand annoyance at unprofessional behavior and just idiotic behavior, but I also have experienced a lot of real-life passive aggressive stuff so I sometimes wonder whether some of the vitriol I see online is due to people who feel powerless (or make themselves powerless) to do something about situations in real life that they are annoyed at/offended by/etc. and so this gets transferred to a place they feel a bit more empowered to speak out?

Re: other companies and developers to watch out for
Hello, Bull_hit. I have been working with Adam (Colony One) for more than 5 years. He is tough on negotiations, but once agreement is in place and as long as one follows his part of the agreement, Adam will follow his part. I don't know anything about other guys you list here, as I didn't work with them, but I suspect that (as in Adam's case) God made them to crucify you.

Re: other companies and developers to watch out for
Michael, Please take this to heart, try keeping quiet for a while. Your current behavior is not doing you any favors..Trolling the CF lists and spamming CF-Jobs does not help with your case any. then lashing out to some who are actually trying to give you some good advise show's you're hitting rock bottom. Don't make it worse by proceeding to dig deeper. Take a break for a week or two Use justcoldfusionjobs.com, monster.com, dice and newspapers for a while. Just give this list a rest for a while. -- Larry C.
