Dear Computer Futures
Dear Computer Futures,
Please stop calling me, I already told you folks ages ago I won't work with you. Back in 1999 you sent my resume to companies I specifically forbid you not to send it to. You called me to arrange interviews with one of your customers while I was already waiting in the lobby of that exact same customer your coworker sent me to, Twice.
There was no need in calling me again last week trying to convince me of working with you. I know you compete with the guy sitting in the cubicle next to you and you have absolutely no idea what I`m doing or what I`m interested in , as you don't even bother to search the web.
But most importantly do not try to call my customers switchboard to get in touch with me.
I assume that have read and clearly understood my message and will comply,
If you still really really feel the need to call me I will gladly accept your calls and invoice you at an appropriate rate for the time I waste.

#1 Jeroen VB : Hey Kris, CF called me one
Hey Kris,
CF called me one time for an interview at Real (Real Software those days)
After the interview they never bothered to let me know whether i was accepted/rejected.
Then a few months later i get ANOTHER call for a job at Real. When i told them about my previous confrontation, they wanted to know if i knew who did that, and that they were sorry etc. etc.
Whenever i hear the name Computer Futures, i tend to start dreaming of a gloomy future for the computers involved :) They surely have my non-vote !

#2 Anonymous : Luck
I wish you luck, lots of luck. Me and my colleague - sometimes - happen to be able to escape their radar for a few months in a row. But they come back - they always do. The continuous email harassment we managed to get rid of, luckily.
