First time *that* happens to me, my boss will find a purchase order for
an APC Masterswitch[1] on his desk the next morning.

One of the Edlug folks works for this bunch.  Last time he posted a job
advert on the EdLUG listed, I responded and was told that they wouldn't
pay enough for somebody with my skills.  What skills they were talking
about I don't know[2], but it saved me the bother of taking a day off
for an interview...

[2] I have an amazing ability to sit on IRC all day instead of doing any
    real work.  That's a skill, right? :)
