Nothing to do with Linux,

I wonder who posted this

__________________________________________________


Hi Phillip,

On my last visit to Mega Cetauri in the Fantast Nebula, I met a couple
of ICT wizards who might fit the bill, I also know of a couple of MIT
graduates with the qualifications mentioned – although they told me
that they have no intention of working for anyone as they are starting
their own companies and have just passed the first $5 billion. But in
Uganda ??? – What are you paying ??? Surely you are not targeting E.A.
ICT graduates ???

I always enjoy reading this kind of demand. Unfortunately in countries
where there is high unemployment, it often happens that it is those
offering projects have no understanding that it is they to say PLEASE
!!! C#, VB, Java & C, PHP, Perl, Python & Bash – ok I don’t qualify –
hope you find someone who does.

David M. Gullever
