- "Beepoupo1o" ? I didn't write that. The part of the Qud BBQ rs-yadad sounds
- like another forgotten drunken spree, but I certainly haven't talked about
- beepoupo1o in quite a while.
-
- Here's the the article as it appears on this site... someone please tell me if
- it made it out of here sane.

- Ahh, and you are going to make this list publically available, and I suppose
- you think that everyone gets a copy of this list will use it only to send out
- resumes to companies that want them. Well, you are wrong there, within a day
- of releasing your list, any company that is on it will be flooded with a ton
- of annoying fax junk mail, as if they aren't already. Because lots of
- "entrepeneurs" will pick up this list and fax these nice companies
- advertisements for computer cleaning kits, hardware, repair, plastic dishware,
- cutlery, and everything else you could imagine.

-
- I would guess that maybe half would be happy with the unsolicited junk fax, at
- first, (until they got sick of them, since you would be starting a monster),
- the rest, well, they wouldn't look at any resumes they recieved that way
- kindly.

-
- How about compiling a list of VOICE phone numbers of mid to large sized
- companies, then calling the human resources department, ASKING them if you
- could send them a fax of your resume, THEN doing it.

-
- That's true, ask them if they could keep your resume on file. Don't just dump
- it on them. They may already have their own avenues to find people.
