Yeah it is, (still not sure how to create the forum quotes for
selected pieces of a message.... maybe it is automatic)<br>

I don't mind. I would love to do sysadmin work. It really depends on
what kind of experience is needed though. I am subscribed as of
tonight. Thanks for reminding me.<br>
<br>
and I'll check with the recruiter on Monday about the placement of
their contact info on this list serve. I doubt it will be a problem,
but being as green as I am I would rather CMA and not burn bridges.<br>

style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">I
got a call on Thursday from a recruiting office in Nebraska, must be<br>
cheaper in Nebraska, about installing a DVD NOW (essentially a redbox)<br>
vending machine at an IGN in Marble Hill, GA. (one time gig)<br>
<br>
pays $15 an hour with $15 Travel and time limit is 1.5 hours. Based on<br>
the instruction manual there is almost nothing to it. My job is just to<br>
open the guts and make sure the moving parts are not broken, then plug<br>
it into the power and LAN connections and let her rip. I may have to<br>
run the diagnostics, but I will have to confirm that. Based on prior<br>
experiences with appliance installs, a refrigerator looks more<br>
complicated. But, it is a paying gig that may get me rep points with<br>
that recruiter. I don't want to be a career installer mind you, but at<br>
least it is a start. Albeit a slow one.<br>
<br>
I am trying to shut off the little voice in my head that keeps saying,<br>
"I went to school for 2 years, got an Networking Specialist AAS, an A+<br>
and a CCNA, and completed my CCNP course work to install a VENDING
MACHINE."<br>
<br>
I'll probably work slow to get my full 1.5 hours of pay. My girlfriend<br>
wants to go to Six Flags this summer and the $40 I make on this job<br>
should pay for the ticket and parking.<br>
<br>
I'll take what I can get. Beats flipping burgers.<br>
<br>
:)<br>
<br>
have a great summer and wish me luck on the job search.<br>
