A New Meaning For Geotargeting At Monster.com
Duke submits a link to this New York Times story, according to which "it seems that Monster.com has taken the U.S. government's policy of sanctions against certain countries and run with it where no man has gone before. Monster 'has deleted resumes that list current addresses in those countries.' and more fun stuff. If you haven't had the opportunity for a really self-rightous post in a while, Monster.com has made it simple for you." Update: 04/28 01:34 GMT by T : Note that the New York Times ran the story, but like many other newspaper stories, the real credit goes to the Associated Press.
If you can't even send so much as a marshmallow peep to these TERRORIST-RUN states, why the heck would you HIRE anybody from there? We should sever all ties with these corrupt regimes.
Shucks, we can't sell these guys american frisbees, but we'll happily send FAT CHECKS over there so they can hand it over to their corrupt regimes?
Really, I don't care WHAT monster.com does. They can choose to only show resumes from people named "Harvey" for all I care.
Self righteous post? I'm above that.

Amazing. A FP that actually possesed some intellect. I would mod it up, except #1, I just used mine up, and #2, I'm participating... (-:Stephonovich:-)

Are you really 2 fucking years old? Because it would be cool is a stupid ass 2 year old posted on slashdot.
When the sanctions were in place the United States sent large quantities of food and medicine to help the common Iraqi people. Unfortunately, Saddam just gave the food and medicine to his military. The US decided that subsidizing the Iraqi military was not such a good idea, so the aid packages were terminated. Stop trying to blame the US for killing Iraqi citizens. We didn't do it. Saddam did it.
BTW, using worst-case estimates for civilian casualties in the Iraqi war (aka Three Week War), fewer Iraqi civilians died due to our military intervention than would have been killed by Saddam's murderous regime.
Also, someone tell former weapons inspector Scott Ritter to shut the fuck up. We don't need to hear the opinion of a pedaphile. Especially one that was on Saddam's payroll.

I hate working with them. Fortunately all but one of them at my employer has been fired. They are so fucking lazy, I don't get where the idea of them having a work ethic came from. The one that's left will be gone soon, she managed to get sole ownership of some key duties in an attempt at job security, but those are being slowly taken away so that she'll be gone by summer. We can't wait, she eats this smelly shit for lunch and farts it all afternoon, I'm not kidding, it brings tears to your eyes and makes you want to puke.
By the way, when did it go from 6 million to your "8million"?
So let me get this straight. An American company can't exclusively allow Americans or those that are friendly to America to use their site? It's morally wrong to disallow countries that are politically and philosophically opposed to American ideals from sending workers to our country and take our money? How dare they!
There's much love for monster.com comin' from me.
