Do you know anyone who might be looking for this kind of role? No? I'm SO GLAD that ALL your friends have work!

I get that this is a facetious comment, but I'd like to highlight to two groups my social network falls into.

Anyone I know who is technical isn't looking for a 6 month contract role in helpdesk halfway across the country that requires on-site presence.

Anyone else I know, even those who are unemployed, is non-technical and unqualified for the role.

Which makes it all the more infuriating that recruiters get snippy when I refuse to help them grow their network for free.

Recruiters are like people on dating apps. You can tell when they're not doing well because they start writing angry, frustrated messages that they try to pass off as light-hearted.
