While I certainly am the first one to complain about spam :-) it isn't necessarily dumb to get some Oracle dba into a db2 site. It's only dumb if the site thinks that is dumb, many smart sites realize an experienced and motivated dba plus localized training can be a good thing. With multiple dbas, there is an advantage to having a spread of skills and experience, too. There are also Oracle dbas who were previously db2 dbas, and certainly some shops with both engines. The real determinant of dumb is the communication between the customer and the recruiter, and we don't know that. Though I'm sure we've all run into some amazingly stupid recruiters, and there is nothing wrong with calling them that when they spam! I've called them worse ;-) Recruiter success unfortunately has little to do with technical acumen, it's all sales and persistence. As an old joke could go,
...a salesman bought a mule from a farmer who told him that if he were polite to the mule, it would do whatever he wanted. After months of being nice, but with no success in getting the mule to take him to customers, the salesman asked the farmer for help. The farmer came over, hit the mule on the head with a 2x4 and explained that you did have to be nice – “but first you have to get the mule’s attention.”
