The other day, I got an email from James Todd:
Hello Michael,
My name is James Todd and I’m a new employee SDE in the SQL Server org in building ##. I’ve been reading your blog externally for a while now, and on rare occasion I posted on it as ‘James Todd’. (You may recall a post of yours about a problem with unicows corrupting the floating point control word.)
Anyway, I just wanted to say that reading your blog was always educational for me, and it helped me decide to come to MS. I’m happy to be here, and I just bookmarked your blog here on my new machine. J
Thanks!
James Todd
Now stuff like that happens to people like Gretchen all the time, but it is something new for me so I figured I would post about it....
While I am on the subject of jobs and hiring and such, I thought I would point out two different roles in GIFT test that we are looking for the right person for (look here and here for the listings).
As I have mentioned before, International Test is an art, and there are few fine artists. We have a small cadre of them now, but we are looking to make it a little bigger, so if you are interested you can take a look. :-)
