If I remember correctly I gave up on SSIS and wrote a windows service because of that very issue. Far as I could tell it was impossible to get one of the tasks that I using to actually return an error to upper level. So I couldn't get it to report a failure.

That's about right for the government.
As I grow older I've found that pleasing everyone is impossible but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

Sounds like the recruits with whom I served in the Army.

There would have been quite a few of them born between those dates.
Just send the letters to the local cemetery.

The confusion happened when the records of males born between 1993 and 1997 were swapped with ones born 100 years prior. The mix-up happened during an automated data transfer of roughly 400,000 records to the Selective Service
why were they looking to load information about people over 100 years of age?
are they building Universal Soldier[^]Universal Solider?

Anyone use LinkedIn? It's somewhat unavoidable in today's digital age, but how effective do you find it to be?
Does it really keep you connected with your work colleagues? Does it help you find jobs? ...or is it another mind numbing social page?
What do you guys think?

I find it an absolutely horrid spam fest of foreign recruiters and utter madness.
Yeah, a lot of people I used to work with are on there. But... I don't really have any reason to keep in touch.
I find plain old job boards to be much less offensive when it comes to the search.

I am skilled in (and endorsed for) Tax evasion, toileting, ice cream, voice acting and sauces according to my linkedin, who wouldn't want to hire me?

Maybe the tax man would be interested is having you in for an interview.

Dunno, I try to keep my profile as ineffective as possible, beside name and connections it is empty. I still got few business-ish offers and requests from random recruiters.
Just be sure to turn off all notification, because they are mostly useless spam.

It is a tool; and can be a very useful tool if you are into Business networking[^] where you need, for your business, to be connected to a lot of people, giving an receiving business opportunities from those people.
IMO, For code monkeys like us (most of us) it is not really useful until you are searching for a new job.
try it, use it; and if it does not work do not use it and just keep your professional data up to date.
I'd rather be phishing!

I created an account maybe 4 years ago when looking for work. Haven't logged into it since. But at least I still get spam from them any time a contact does something.

I think that's how most people seem to use LinkedIn... "looking for a job, time to update my account!"
|
|
|
|

Yes, and utterly ineffective. But I don't use it other than to keep my work profile more-or-less current (+/- a year or so)
Otherwise, yeah, it's mind numbing, but not as much as Farcebook.
