RE: Looking for a job...
The Clown makes a very good point. I take my shots at Christine and other IBM'ers, mostly in fun, as I have seen first hand the heavy handcuffs IBM puts on her and the folks who once had her job.... -----Original Message----- From: informix-list-bounces@iiug.org [mailto:informix-list-bounces@iiug.org] On Behalf Of Obnoxio The Clown Sent: Wednesday, May 31, 2006 9:45 AM To: doubleecho@your.com Cc: informix-list@iiug.org Subject: Re: Looking for a job...

C'mon Jerry, that's pretty lame. Suddenly an apologist for IBM after going along and slamming them? To quote you, "I hate IBM with all my guts". I hardly see the "fun" in your statements. Now you're defending them? Very lame. The clown is at least consistent in _his_ statements. Anyway... No matter how difficult it may be to work for IBM and push Informix, you have to have better arguments against your competition than what I've seen. One of the weakest positions you could have is to attack your competitions' financial standing. I've seen that happen before in sales presentations when one vendor will tell me that the choice I'm making might not be good because of the financial standing of their competition. Can you guess who might have done that? And now, IBM/Informix is no better than the rest. Pathetic to throw that one out, it's a last gasp of desperation that tells me Informix has nothing to offer against the competition other than IBM covering for Informix's losses. Pathetic. That's not competing, that's just nothing.

Personally, I can't see how pointing out that IBM makes it difficult for people to just do their job is being an apologist for IBM. -- Bye now, Obnoxio "... no bill is required as no value was provided." -- Christine Normile
Judging by your comments, you are obviously not only a Worthy And Noble Knowledge Economy Researcher, you are also a Decidedly Unbiased Methodical But Clever User of New Technology. I wish you would Feed Us Clear Knowledge Of Future Facilities All New Developers of Database Infrastructures Expect, for you are surely an impotent person ' your posts have Supreme Head of Information Technology written all over them. Oh, how I wish I could think of the right acronyms. I'm sure someone here could help. Peter A smile is a gift that is free to the giver and precious to the recipient. But giving someone the finger is free too, and I find it more personal and sincere.
