Dear Tasha,

I sincerely hate to flame you on a mailing list but you have got to
be joking me...  You're offering $12-$16/hour for consultant-level, 
highly qualified work?   Please!  Try $60-70/hour.  

I just finished a similar project for a client, billing them nearly 8 
times what you offer.   If you expect to find a competent consultant,
believe me, you won't.  If you expect to find an idiot, there are 
plenty of those running around.

You know, maybe I should ask my dog... She may want to work for that 
rate - she may just be able to get some more of those yummy dog treats.
Too bad she won't be able to do the job, but hey thats about as good as 
you are going to find.

Now let me get something else straight here - why, as a FreeBSD 
consultant would I have my resume in a Microsoft format?  Do you not 
realize that Microsoft doesn't make their products for FreeBSD?  Or do
you not accept the possibility of someone not using Windows?

Again, my sincere apologies for flaming you, but your job posting was 
beyond just ridiculous - it was irresponsible, demonstrated a clear
lack of understanding of the position you're trying to hire into, and 
just plain arrogant.  

Best regards,


Vladislav
