    ok, this may better fit in the S/NSS forum, but darnit, I'm mad. We need those IPs for our work! Now were running off a proxy server, that must be running on a 286, cause it takes a full 45sec to load one of our own pages on http://www.creative.com. Also, it's very limited access (we cant even get to Microsoft.com) and is actually limiting our ability to do work.

    OK, so, I'm lookgin for a new job (i hate the one i've got). Anyone want to hire a Kickarse computer Tech, thats studying for his MCSE, with a mediocre knowledge of HTML, and with fairly good graphics ability (yummm, Photoshop). Also, I'm fluent in Written and Spoken Spanish. (Just ask Tuvi!)

    I'll work 40+ hours a week, will re-locate anywhere, and want a salary equivelent to what I'm getting now, which is about 25K /yr. (ie. in CA it would be almost 50K /yr.)

    (humm, maybe i should post this in the Spam/referrals forum )

    I call on YOU, the Got|Apex community, to help me! Do it for your country!. (oops, wrong speech)

    no actually, 50K is right. I'm talking like LA or San Diego.

    I looked it up on jobsearch.com and someone with my experience etc. gets around $50-60k starting.

    Besides the general perception (well, mine at least) that the place is full of unemployed "high-tech" workers from the dot-com fallout who'll be competing with him for the kinds of jobs he's looking for?

    naw, I'm not that "high-tech" - I don't even know how to program. I said CA just for reference, although I'de really like to leave near the coast, wheather it be the pacific, or the Gulf O' Mexico.
