Honored but wait if I had these skills, I would want more!
As usual, head hunters are hitting my inbox. Here is the latest one:

The knowledge requested is a bit broad and much of it I can honestly say I do not have but if I did, why would I take a job that only has a lifespan of six months? 8-10 years of experience is desired yet Dell only would like to use me for less than half a year. I hope no one out there with this wide range skill-set would ever seriously consider something so short-sighted. I guess I should not look at this so negatively. We do live in an on-demand society. Why should those we employ be any different?
