If you are going to PM me and say I 'hosed' you out of a job.....

I too am looking for work, so I know how the guy feels.

It sounds to me like he assumed because he lived in the area he had a shot at the job. If that was really true it wouldn't matter if it was advertised or how many people knew about it. I don't think he actually had an inside contact pushing him or he would have gotten the job.

Living in the area is not enough to get a job, unless it is someplace remote where people dont' want to move and if they do move they don't like it and quit soon afterwards. There's way too many pilots out there.

because I posted it here and that caused them to get a bunch of resumes from people more qualified than you and that hosed you out of the job then you should man up and at least have the ball$ to call me and discuss it when I ask you to. It's not my fault a company in a place where you want to live/work posts a job. I just pass it along, so others have an opprotunity to apply as well, so take that up with the company that posts the job, and not me. Had you just PM'd me when you saw the job somewhere else, you could have told me privately that you had a good line on the job and to please not post the job if I came across it. Instead, you took a gamble and did not do that. I am not an ASShole, so had you just done that, I would have been more than happy not post the job. Instead, you blame me for you not getting the job simply because I posted it here. I am not going to apoligize for doing that.

What's a guy to do? I'm just trying to look out for the good guys on here that want good work. I am not looking for a job, I'm content with what I am doing, but I know of some great resources for finding good fortune 200 jobs, and I like to pass them along to help a fella out, as I might need help one day and hopefully someone will be in a position to extend me the same courtesy. I never in my wildest dreams thought I would be hurting anyone by posting decent jobs in hopes of having one of you guys get that job.

May the best man or woman, win. Keep posting the jobs man! Ignore the naysayers.
