Hi Folks,

  I worked with Eileen Barkow at NYC DOITT (Data Center).  Everything she says 
is absolutely true.  You can't believe it when you're hired there.  Every piece 
of bureaucracy appears so ridiculous, and that's the way it really works 
there.  It's not like "industry" at all.  I went there during a recession also, 
in '92, and when you need a job, you need a job.  I was glad to have it (warts 
and all).  I stayed for five years.

  I'll tell you, that I don't have time to go into the kind of details they 
have.  When you get your acceptance, if you're a minute late (within the 30 
minute tolerance time of the appointment time) you're not hired.  This is after 
two months or more, of waiting.  When I had to go there, I got onto the wrong 
path train from Jersey City, and wound up in Newark.  I then had to wait for a 
train to go all the way back (past Jersey City again) to the World Trade Center 
(of blessed memory) and I ran to the office where I had to be.  When I got 
there, making excuses after all that effort (and having called them, from phone 
booths, as much as I could), the lady told me:  "Oh, you don't have to worry.  
You were four minutes early."

  Everything Eileen says is true.  She was there way before me, and she's been 
there way after me.  Attagirl, Eileen.  It's nice to hear from you.

  I wouldn't think Nevada is that bad.  It's not New York City.  But I don't 
know for sure.  If you need the job, take it.  Don't sweat the details.

  All the best of everything to all of you.

Sincerely,  Sam Golob
