Welcome to the home of Donavon West. An independent consultant and Microsoft MVP. I'll be discussung things that are near and dear to me, including life, love, technology and politics. Are you looking for Donavon Stinson? Or possibly even Donavon Frankenreiter? (man, that dude is everywhere!)

As you may know, I'm actively looking for full time employment (my resume here). I received the following email today (corrected for spelling and grammar) with the subject line: Looking for your clone .... sort of.

Donavon,

I am working on a position for a client who needs a Strong JavaScript / CSS  guy for front end development.  They don't need Donavon strong and frankly, they can't afford you.  Would you happen to know any sharp kid protégés who might be interested in a position in the Midwest working for a great company?
Please let me know

PS. Your resume ROCKS.  I like the personality it shows and the testimonials are very impressive!

And here was my response:

LOL. Thanks (I think). I have a 9 month old son who is also looking for work. He's not as expensive as I am, but will need 2-3 naps/day so the client will have to be OK with that. :)

I'll let you know if I think of anyone else.

Donavon

I'm hoping your lack of posting is due to new employment. If not, I'd pay handsomely* for a tutorial on getting past the transparency mask issue for Gadgets. I love what I have, I just hate the background and can't deal with the magenta-tinged letters.

*at least enough for dinner at Appleby's
