Re: Telecommute Question

2008-08-12 Thread Bryan Stevenson
Hey Andrew,

Now I don't have any concrete experience, but I do see a lot of
telecommuting posts here.

My trick knee says that it's tough enough for US residents to find
telecommuting work with US companies.  So being a fellow Canuckyou
may find it challenging to say the least.

I would tend to think the further east you are and the further east the
US company may be could help as there is simply a lot of CFers out that
way in both countries (I'm west coastand their ain't many of us
here).

Best of luck in the job search

Cheers

RE: Backlash against telecommuting..

2009-08-18 Thread Bryan Stevenson

Simple economics

When the economy is doing well and skilled labour is hard to
findemployers consider ALL options that may get them the quality
staff they need.

When the economy is doing poorly, employers can be picky and get what
THEY want.

It's not rocket science when you think about it ;-)

I may be able to provide some assistance, but I need to know what you
meant by this first:

"If you do send me opportunities you do so on your own will. I just want
to make clear on that because I would not want to offend the great
people who provide this service for us."

I'm sorry, but I just do not understand what you were trying to convey
with that statement.

Re: this conversation about mediaspa

2011-02-01 Thread Bryan Stevenson

Mike, respectfully, NOBODY has said anything about Cameron's posts
earlier today (he posted to both CF-Talk and CF-Jobs-Talk).

Why would you take it upon yourself to state what you just have when
NOBODY has even mentioned ANYTHING about this??

Cameron's posts did not mention you or what I can only assumeyour
previous employment with MediaSpa (which I have also never heard of).

You are openly being hostile for no good reason.or at least coming
off like you have to defend yourself before there is anything to defend
against.

I just don't get it??

Re: Need ColdFusion Developer that doesn't suck for 4-mo gig in Salem, Oregon

2013-10-03 Thread Bryan Stevenson

Suggestion:

Rob - don't call a developer lame no matter how lame they are - makes 
you look like a douchebag and doesn't make people want to get involved

Phillip: If you are hiding behind a fake name - stop it...makes you look 
like you have something to hide - if you a have something liable to say 
about a  past contract - keep it to yourself - saying contact me off 
list makes you look like a disgruntled ex-contractor that wants the last 
word - doesn't help you a  bit

Now please take this childish crap elsewhere - you are both wrong

Thanks!

Yep...coding examples show issuesbut you calling a  developer lame 
in a public forum reflects on you

We have all worked with less than perfect developers - what's the point 
of calling them names?

You could just have easily said "our last developer was not qualified 
and we are looking for a replacement"

Good luck with your methods

Re: Verbal or Written Estimates

2004-03-25 Thread Bryan Stevenson
I always use the "Based on the requirements so far it should take x long and cost y dollars (of course this could change if new requirements are added).  If you want a fixed price then a technical design document can be created for z dollars and that will be a complete blueprint of the application down to what is on every screen etc."

Then again...if I'm hungry and need the work I'll be more flexible.

I look at it this wayI'm a professional...I charge the rates I charge for quality workif a client is going to nickel and dime me...they can talk a long walk off a short pier.  Would you haggle with your doctor?? ;-)

  A client was pushing me into a ballpark time-frame and estimate using a

    Is it better to respond via email or verbally over the phone?

    I understand the written word can be powerful; but I'm sure it will be 
  used against me 3 months down the line when they try to scope creep a cure

    They sent the request around 8 o'clock last night.  Knowing I would be 
  off site today, I'm not sure if they were using sly negotiating tactics to 
  try to push me in a corner or if they are just busy and disorganized.  ( At 
  this point, I could go either way )

  Hi Folks,

  We are in the process of launching a (very!) new UK project bidding site http://www.projectbids.co.uk.

  The idea is that if you have a project you'd like a range of quotes for (either from individuals or companies) you post details of the project and wait for people to place their bids for the work, all free and with no obligation to choose anyone and no need for people to phone you up - we're aiming to cover a wide range of topics so anything from creative projects to technical stuff is covered (there are general categories to accomodate most things).

  Anyone fancy posting new projects or even submitting a few bids?

  Subject: :grumble, grumble: clients...

  So...
    I'm dealing with a potential client who wants to hire me as a 
  subcontractor.  I think I'm one level removed by the real client.

    The project was supposed to start two weeks ago, and had a "Phase 1" 
  deadline of the 30th (a week from today).  With 3 weeks, there would have 
  been no problem meeting the August 30th deadline.  However, I'm still don't 
  have the contractual paperwork returned to me (I won't start work without 
  it).  They don't have the content ready yet.

    I want to move the deadline out 2 weeks, but they are throwing a fit 
  because there was no condition in the original proposal that stated the 
  'phase 1 delivery date' was contingent on getting content by a certain 
  time.  I find it hard to fathom that this wouldn't be obvious.

    I feel bad for my client, since he is stuck in the middle, but I'm 
  pushing hard for an extension.

    Does anyone have this week free and know Lotus Domino (R5) really well?

There is only 1 contract here...ours ;-)

If a client wants to have their lawyer look it over and make some changes...we are open to itbut certain items are untouchable

I started in web development with no contracts...moved towards very casual contracts (trying to be the accomodating guy I am and not some big scary IT guy).  I must say that the past year I've gone the route of my partners...blunt and firm"this is the way it is...for our protection and yours...and it costs this much...period".  What I'm finding is client's respond very well to this...it's there in black & white...no confusion (well minimal confusion...hehe).

Good luck yo ya

I know that would take a hair more time than it takes you know to keep the list going...but as you've seennobody listens...so if you moderate it will never get out of hand.  If you deny a posting the poster could simply be notified saying their post doesn't meet the reqs of the list.

So a little re-coding now may keep your stress level down later ;-)

BTW...a simple rule I live by"People are stupid until proven otherwise"...sure helps to lower my expectations and not be surprised when idiots make themselves known (not directed at anybody involved in this thread in case anyone feels they are being targeted).

my 2 cents

    A reminder.  This is an international mailing list some of us are not
    from the US, let alone New York. Both the reference to SNL and RNC are
    totally lost on me.  All I saw was you reducing the thread to an all

Re: Google your business name lately?

2004-09-09 Thread Bryan Stevenson
Well Louis you haven't told anyone here exactly what has been saidso tell us and then mabye we can come to a conclusion.

If someone was slandering my company I'd be doing just what Jeffery saidcallin the lawyer.

Telling us really doesn't help you in any way.  It's like complaining to about your sore tooth the dentist didn't fix to someone at the coffeee shop ;-)

Now showing us and asking our opinion may prove useful in helping you determine if this is in fact an issue at all.

Perhaps you're concerned about slandering those you say are slandering you??if so you should drop the whole topic as this thread could be used by them to come after you for slandering them!!

Personally I ignore anything geared towards creating fear.  I choose not to live in fear and do not trust the media...I can think for myself ;-)

I have always ignored "doomsayer" trends and have always prospered when I'm supposed to be destitute!

You create you're own success in life...so just beilieve you can do it and use common sense.

Re: software developers vs web-site developers?

2005-01-12 Thread Bryan Stevenson
web sites are prettysoftware is smart ;-)

think developer vs. designer

He's just meaning that a pretty site with a shopping cart does not constitue 
"software"

BTW...a business system can be web-basd and NOT be a website 
(intranet...extranet etc.)

just semantics...but I'm sure this will kick off another "I'm right and yer 
wrong" thread...and just when I had stopped having nightmares about whatever

Amen brother!

I know what I do...and that's all I care about (not what it's 
called)...anybody I hire has to pass a test so that I know that they know 
what they can doI could care less if they call themselves programmers or 
fluffy clouds...as long as they can do the job.

Life is only as complicated as you make it for yourself ;-)

Now everybody get on with theirs

LOL...I bet ya can guess what I think of most HR folks ;-)

Sure seems quite insane to artificially weed out qualified or possibly perfect 
folks for a  job just because it's harder to sift through the resumes.  Why 
don't they just weed out all left-handed applicantsor maybe those that take 
3 sugars in their coffeeyeah...that makes sense???

Seems like it might be better to:

a) know what skills are actually required to do the job
b) ask for those SPECIFIC skills instead of casting a wide net and then 
limiting 
by education

Sure glad I'm the boss around here!!

Not to try and heat things up, but is this perhaps a difference in philosophy 
between the US and Canada?

I grew up knewing I was going to University (no not some silver spoon in mouth 
rich kid.just the way it was).  So to say I made a decision and commitment 
and then followed through is a load of BS to me.  I went because I always knew 
I 
would...plain and simple.

Now given kids todayit would amaze me if they could focus on anything for 
more than 15 secondsso perhaps your view is becoming more true over time.

I will however continue to see someone that did something major (and 
non-standard) other than getting a degree as someone who sees a goal and goes 
for it.  Going to school for a degree just means jumping through hoops and 
paying way too much for it to me.  There are lots of folks that come out the 
other end without having really learned anythingbut that's the crappy 
system 
for letting them IMHO

It's also important to know that people learn differently.  I for one would

Yepand it's not like I didin't pick a focus (business), but even that I 
knew 
before junior high.

I wentI had a focus, but it was NOT a goal of mine to go.  It was simply 
what most people in my city (and group of friends) knew would happen.  Pretty 
much the same as going to public school, but we had to pay for it ;-)

For me it was a complete waste of time and money.  Heck it ended up taking 9 
years to complete a 4 year degree because I started a business part way 
through. 
Believe it or not, that caused all kinds of trouble for a BUSINESS student!! 
Another reason I don't think highly of post-secondary institutions ;-)

As I said to someone off list

Education is powerexperience ins the control

Any potential employer that doesn't see that isn't doing a very good job and 
will be stuck in a never ending cycle of bad hires or will spend far too much 
time training them so they have some kind of experience.

Just a thoughtdon't shoot the messenger ;-)

Being that most if not all of what you're asking for currently exists would it 
perhaps be more efficient to use exisitng tools to setup groups for your 
ex-pats 
(i.e. setup a network on Linked In just for them) and they can use those 
instead 
of going through considerable expense to have custom programming done?

Of course you may be wanting to charge your members a big new fee for all the 
shiny new features ;-)

Anywaysjust a  thoughtseemed like re-inventing the wheel when it may 
not 
be neccessary

Re: Dead Beat Clients.

2008-02-03 Thread Bryan Stevenson
I will simply note 3 things:

1) I would never run such a list due to liability

2) Since 1995 I've only had 1 dead beat client.so perhaps it's not just
the clients??

3) Why are you hiding behind a temp Yahoo account and not giving your
name?  Surely this means you're ever bit as scared of liability as
everyone says you should be.

I feel for anyone that gets a raw deal from a client, so everyone should
protect themselves.  Paying upfront before code is released is great way
to avoid these issues.
