I get emails from LinkedIn all the time from recruiters, even though my profile is not set as "open to opportunities."
The latest one I got promised (along with a basketball court and ping pong table), "Company BBQs and Endless M&Ms."
If I WERE looking for a job, I wouldn't be interested in joining a frat house - I just want to go to work, work hard, feel appreciated, get paid, and go home so I can be with my family.
I'm so tempted to reply back with "Well, I'm a vegan 54 year old 5' 2" single parent who likes to run in the morning with my dog and get home after work to spend time with my son so playing basketball at work and the BBQs and M&Ms are not really a selling point. (And I also already have a really great job where my boss doesn't expect me to eat junk "food" and play sports at work) ...Good luck though!"
But I won't.
*sigh*
