Condescending? Sorry. I think I was locked up in a windowless test lab for too many years with guys like Roy from the British "IT Crowd" sitcom who are impressed by Sinclairs and SX64s. Didn't I see a Zork Asterisk demo at the Taug table? Things that make you smart was a reference from a book and a TNG episode.

Charles I know you were only trying to keep it light hearted but it came across to me as extremely condescending.

It occurred to me after seeing Reza's post, this could actually be a great forum to seek out the unique. My first priority is to recruit someone with an exchange background and preferably someone who is comfortable with Exchange 2003. BES experience would be an asset. This role would be part-time as needed with no guaranteed hours. I would need you to be available during the day where you may receive a support request by phone, by ticket or through your PDA if you use one. It's likely that you would only need to do your support through a VPN, but there is always the chance of an onsite visit. You could be assigned to projects that may offer you full time work for a couple of weeks depending on project size. A friendly personality is equally as valuable as your knowledge! I'm also looking for junior to senior techs with either Windows Client / Server or Unix experience (ok this may sound redundant in this forum) for part-time work. Principal understanding and a friendly personality is more important to me than hearing you babble about your paper certifications. Also, it would be nice if you owned a tie. Unix experience in a hosting environment is preferred (Direct Admin, H-sphere CPs). If you are kept busy enough, you will get perks like a PDA, things that will make you smart, opportunity to touch a Commodore SX64 in pristine condition, or to hug our Making IT Work girl! Resumes and pay expectations are helpful. If you drive, mention it. Work is within the GTA. Kind regards, /Charles Charles T.
