NYCPHP Meetup

[Daniel Max Kestin]

I must agree.

Recruiters who post here are just doing their jobs.  Their only medium for
reaching many of us is email, and they're doing what they can to attract
attention.  Even in a bad economy (or especially in a bad economy) - their
task is not easy.  It is way more simple to make a web page display contents
from a database table than it is to make people agree to work with each
other.

Somebody on this list might need that job - or know somebody who needs that
job - and we need to NOT discourage recruiters from posting here.

The post was on-topic - and thus not deserving of a flame or a wise-crack.
