Based upon his postings here I wouldn't touch him - very immature and
unstable.

AFAIK, agents don't use blacklists, as it doesn't serve their purposes,
i.e. would require cooperation between them, which doesn't happen. This
is an urban myth that has been around forever.

Indivigual agencies may "blacklist" you, but there are so many out
there that even if you had annoyed 50 to the point of being
blacklisted, there'd still be loads to chose from.

If you honestly believe you are blacklisted, by all agents in the
country, then just change your name and email, etc. They'll never know,
or even check. If you are employable, they will get you a job. They
live on margin, they really don't care about anything apart from that.
Nor should they.

Of course, if you are unemployable because of your hostile attitude, or
your skills are not in demand any more, then blaming this situation on
some convenient person from your past is probably easier than facing up
to your own shortcomings.

Why don't we all just agree that the glue in his brains has melted -
if he ever had any glue - if he ever had any brains - he's beyond
redemption and that he likes to hear his keyboard click..... and that,
as it stands, and has stood for years now - he's a waste of space ...
and I'm feeding his little-**** ego just by responding.... But
somewhere, sometime ...

Dan Fisher, you are *the* absolute loser. Drink kerosene. It'll do
you, and us, good..... And I apologise to nobody's sense of decency
over *that*.... Better people than him have topped themselves... and
a lot morte quietly....

Firstly by posting positive and not negative messages to all the NewsGroups
that this/these messages are going to (comp.databases.pick, comp.databases.
revelation, comp.databases.informix, uk.consultants).

Secondly, as others have said, by disassociating 'work' from 'life'.

Thirdly by looking for jobs at, but not exclusively, the following places:
news:uk.jobs.contract
news:uk.jobs.fortyplus (if appropriate)
news:uk.jobs.offered

They are just the job Newsgroups I'm in.

I doubt there is an agency who would touch him !!! We won't be !

Thanks though for the helpful suggestion of taking this squabble
somewhere else. It's ended up in my inbox - how I don't know.

Please rest assured that his "foul mouth" is still in operation
although his vocabulary seems a little limited in colour !

Do you think he has time to do any work ? I feel sorry for the
employer who is currently paying him for "working !"

Kind regards

"Here is a place of disaffection
Time before and time after
In a dim light: neither daylight
Investing form with lucid stillness
Turning shadow into transient beauty
With slow rotation suggesting permanence
Nor darkness to purify the soul
Emptying the sensual with deprivation
Cleansing affection from the temporal.
Neither plenitude nor vacancy. Only a flicker
Over the strained time-ridden faces
Distracted from distraction by distraction
Filled with fancies and empty of meaning
Tumid apathy with no concentration
Men and bits of paper, whirled by the cold wind
That blows before and after time,
Wind in and out of unwholesome lungs
Time before and time after.
Eructation of unhealthy souls
Into the faded air, the torpid
Driven on the wind that sweeps the gloomy hills of London,
Hampstead and Clerkenwell, Campden and Putney,
Highgate, Primrose and Ludgate. Not here
Not here the darkness, in this twittering world.

Descend lower, descend only
Into the world of perpetual solitude,
World not world, but that which is not world,
Internal darkness, deprivation
And destitution of all property,
Desiccation of the world of sense,
Evacuation of the world of fancy,
Inoperancy of the world of spirit;
This is the one way, and the other
Is the same, not in movement
But abstention from movement; while the world moves
In appetency, on its metalled ways
Of time past and time future."

Yeah well thanks for posting this here.

I sure as **** won't be using your agency ever.

If I ever get the chance to recruit people and your agency shows
up...I'll deck whoever you send...

Moron,

David.

The agency's perfectly sound and reputable alright. I've used them as
have many, many people I know in the industry. They have gone way out
of their way to help promote our/their niche market in the past and
have earnt a lot of respect as a result. It's just this Dan Fisher guy
- he's so far into self-destruction... It would be sad if, well, if it
wasn't so damned annoying.

That's over four years ago.

I suspect it is time to move on and get a life.

How can I get a life without working? They hold the jobs and I'm
blacklisted.
