When it rains, it pours

I spent a half hour on the phone today with a recruiter from BigCompany.com, who needs both network admin types as well as QA people. She's sending me some things to look over.
Nothing for forever then as soon as my job isn't being eliminated I get hits. What's up with that?

Hey, Jim, where are you finding these jobs? I'm trying to get out of NC, back to Florida. Would you share?
Candy! No! Bad Candy!
Repeat after me: North Carolina has no hanging chads...North Carolina has no hanging chards...
*chads
But, you know...um...*chards, too.
*finds a dictionary to see if "chard" is a word.*
Sure there are chards. Those are the tasty little burned bits on the edge of the steak.
You won't be surprised that my view is that you should talk to the head hunter ("hh") anyway and see if any of these other positions are well suited for you. And if not, consider recommending another candidate to the hh because you will then solidify your relationship with the hh and you never know when it might be nice to have the hh owe you a favor. Besides, it also gives you a sense of what youworth in the marketplace is and that's always good.
My thoughts are very similar, RP. ;-)
Excellent, I'm glad. I hesitate to offer unsolicited advise about something like this and I'm relieved it was accepted in the spirit it was meant.
Did I ever tell you I work for a headhunter?
Oops. My bad.
