Golly! Where des that leave me?  About five times per year a headhunter
friend of mine asks me to post some open job slots that she is having
trouble filling.  I derive nothing in the way of financial reward,
just the warm feeling of helping a friend in her chosen career.

Of course, the idea that about five people have taken jobs through
her, due directly to my postings for her,  mean that somebody has
found some benefit:  the person who has read about the job and
has decided to try it out.

I would rather have persons such as mdee posting jobs
and giving me the opportunity to 'n' past them, then not have a
newsgroup like net.jobs.
