Russell Beattie is a boring knucklehead who isn’t worth the bother. His blog reminds me of a bad tattoo– something he’s going to look back on in embarassment ten years from now, assuming he grows up.

No don’t ignore him. Do the thing and we’ll judge who’s the fuckwitt. You are the fuckwitt most of the time but Russ is a good candidate after I read his post about you. You see, on your blogs the signal(pertinent info, let’s call criticism so) vs noise(swearing) ratio is pretty good. On his post instead is 50%. Which is not nice. Just swearing w/o making points is useless. Go after him :-)

Asking myself: is invitation to interview modern equivalent to invitation for sword fight in Middle Ages?

Searched for his site (never been before) and after wading through piles of drivel found the post (seems to be the only thing with more than 3 comments). It was funny. He hates you. A lot. Because apparently you attacked him in a neutral blog area. That would be fun to read. I fear for the child that spills ice cream on his shoe (TO THE ORPHANAGE!) or the cat that brushed up against his leg (TO THE POUND!). From his reaction one could assume you had done inappropriate things with his mother. Has he never been flamed before? Is he from distant galaxy where he only communicates with his different personalities (and they all like each other)?

The thing that I wanted to comment on was his resume. That is choice. I hire IT talent for a living. He would *easily* get a 1 out of 5 and go to the bottom of the pile just based on the resume. I almost never give 0 out of 5, but if I read his resume and a few of his “insightful” blog entries he would indeed earn the coveted 0 out of 5. Looks like the longest he has worked anywhere was about 2 years, most jobs were a month or two. And from the descriptions it looks like he is in no way delivery focused. He worked “in” departments or “with” groups. He *never* “delivered” systems to provide “value” to a customer. Maybe he just sucks at resume writing, but when I see a resume like this and I talk with people from their previous places of employment I invariably find that they “didn’t fit” or the company “decided to go a different way”. These times are not “get work done” lengths of time. They are probationary lengths of time. Lots of them.

I think the vote for interview or not is premature. I cast one vote for collection plate to get him a book on writing a resume.

Do an interview with Rickard or someone that really has something useful to say.

well, I don’t know who this Russell dude is. However I have suggestion for an interview: do Mike Spille. Don’t bother with little ones, go for the big pig!
