In general, possibly not; with this particular person, however, yes, I think it IS "so bad". Given his previous arrogance, pomposity and ignorance in his operation of a service that allegedly helped to fight UCE, it's somewhat ironic that he now resorts to advertising himself on a list that is not designed for that purpose. > We might all need such help one day. Yes, but we probably don't have such hangups about using search sites, or have our own network of contacts that might be able to help us. We would not, in most cases (I believe), pimp ourselves so laughably on a technical discussion list.

Given the current economy, that group is growing. Also, this group of people might be more likely then anyone to know of any openings for someone who needs a job in this area of expertise. Everyone on this list is willing to help people most of the time. Is it so bad to reach out and see if anyone can help someone get a job? We might all need such help one day. My $0.02.

Rather than spamming this list with your pathetic little almost-resume? Particularly as this list knows what a jerk you made of yourself with ORB UK. Complete arrogance and ineptitude in your behaviour regarding UCE, and yet here you are now spamming several thousand computer professionals. Alternatively, please practice "Would you like fries with that?", as that is probably the best place for you to end up. [1] Gary [1] And for added giggle value folks, the listed rate of 35 thousand euros, well that's around 21 thousand pounds sterling, or 31 thousand US dollars. Pretty much what you could get as a starting manager at some corporate fast-food joint... - -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, December 30, 2001 15:36 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: OT: New year, no contract Hi folks... Off topic for the list, but what the hell, it's christmas. Since ORB UK is now closed pending the creation of Horus, that means I'm out of contract now. I'm 30, been using MS since before they bought DOS, and I'm a Microsoft Partner in my own right. I have experience in Windows from 3.1 to ME, OS/2 and NT from 2.1 to XP, DOS'en from 3.3 to 7.1, and Linux. I also use BeOS, MacOS X, FreeBSD and SVR4. My current 'learning experience' is QNX. I have experience of Sendmail, QMail, Exim, Exchange 5 and 5.5, and Mailtraq, and have used SPTM, POP3, APOP, ETRN and ODMR. I've been doing telephone and deskside support for the better end of 4 years, and was part of the support team during the launch of Telewest SurfUnlimited. I've used and supported ISDN, ADSL, and Cable Modems, as well as Leased Line, Routed Solutions and Plain Old dial-up. Sad though I am, I can identify a modem model and a RAS by ear. With Lucent Portmasters, I can even tell the ComOs release by listening to it. I'm based in Basingstoke, UK, but don't mind commuting, consulting, homeworking, Remote Adminning, or even travelling if the price is right. I'll do Contract or Permanent, and would be looking for EUR25 per hour for Contract or EUR35,000 per annum for permanent.
