I deleted my linkedin account because I was getting too many unsolicited job specs.
The logic:
I don't need a constant barrage of speculative e-mail from "recruitors (sic) for recruitment firms and for actual companies". If I need work, I will tell them.

Jeeze, you've really fallen for the hype.
These people want to make money out of you, that's all. Never think that they have any other motive.
Buy a big bag of salt, and use it with liberal pinches.

I don't think it should. But you should question your faith in Monster (and almost every other job board).
FWIW, the only way I've found a job in my 30 year career is through word of mouth and a trusted set of 3 headhunters. I've yet to find a job I haven't loved. I admit I may be in the minority.

I don't know, the last time when I looked for a job it was ten years ago, I got a call from Marc Zuckerberg to work in facebook, he was still in Toronto at that time I guess.
This time it's all indian recruiters for outsourcing companies, not a good change IMHO. I guess I will just stop updating my resume.

When asked to fax something, I usually email a scan of the document and a second scan that's a high res photo of my broken fax machine from 15 years ago.

You know quick setup can fax like a printer - then you 'accidentally' set number of copies to 999.
Then email them saying 'I've faxed it to you, but I think something's maybe wrong with my fax coz it took a long time to send, please let me know if it didn't come through or I will just try again in 10 minutes.' (i.e. already covered the 'apology' in advance, plus an excuse to send it another 999 times if they don't reply.)

One place I worked my friend Matt faxed a photocopy of the floppy disk holding his weekly status report.
They were not amused.

Well at least it's better than "it gave me some error message with some technical sounding stuff which I didn't think would mean anything to anyone."
On that basis, I'd argue for life imprisonment over execution.
Slogans aren't solutions.

Seeing that I'm a computer programmer and thus "work with computers", I am of course the first line support for the wife whenever she tries to use her computer without me to hold her hand.
So no matter where in the house I am at any given moment, she will yell out "Aaaaaah, I got an error!".
I will then have to run to her side and ask: "Well, what was the error?"
Standard answer: "I don't know, I didn't read the error message. I closed it as fast as possible!"
So I know exactly what you mean! I have tried educating her in the fine art of reading the error messages and solving the problems described, but
