I seriously do love making recruiters angry by telling them I do remote work only, and that nothing else is even worth considering. And then those that push back with some variation of, โIt might pay to not be so picky,โ I respond with a semi-canned, โBro/Broette, I already have an extremely well-paid job and 3-5 of you a week contacting with me actual fully-remote roles. I donโt need you. You need me.โ
And that really sets โem off. But they deserve it.
