This would hold true ONLY IF knowledge were able to pass through teh placenta, during gestation. Not sure if there are any scientific theories to support that claim. THEN, of course, it would also depend on what you've done with and, more importantly, TO your brain, since you've been out of the womb...

Go ahead and cut&paste your name onto your Mom's resume, and send it to me at:

Make SURE that you put ALL that coke into a .zip-file. 1-k should zip down to just a few hunderd byts.

And, for security's sake, password-protect it. You can send me teh password in a seperate email.

I'd hate to lose all that coke to hackers, doncha kno.

No more so than Jeff was.

Bogie was closest... Think about this: It is an internal administrative term and has to deal with filling a position (regardless of what the position is... it could apply as easily to Assistant to the Assistant as it could to Chief Technology Officer).

You guys/gals will NEVER get it (unless one of you HAS worked as an Admin, somewhere, sometime or another).

If you're willing to move to Pittsburgh a company called M Modal might hire you. They were started by a bunch of Germans and have a Wii in the office. They do a lot of speech recognition work. http://www.mmodal.com/home.jsp

As a Baltimore Ravens fan, I would rather be homeless than live in Pittsburg.

S/R's are "staffing requests." Manager "A" Company "A" need somebody to do job "A". An s/r is generated outlining the job requirements/salary/etc. and is either passed around or published in the help-wanteds/online job boards.

People at this level of search generally do not wear clothing with their name embroidered over the chest pocket.

I would have guessed that but I figured that 'open staffing request' is a redundant phrase

i need a job that I can do in my embroidered pajamas
