Netflix just added the first seasons of the original Twilight Zone and Star Trek to the instant view. None of that wimpy "Run a level one diagnostic and meet me in the conference room" stuff from James T. Kirk (^_^)
I use my XPS in meetings to signal how annoyed I am. It's the 21st century equivalent of a mood ring. I'm suprised that the DHS hasn't made a plugin yet that will display the threat advisory level via my XPS. "Uhh, the lights on your PC just turned red..."
So far I haven't seen anybody mention my objection to suits. Here in California's central valley, the temperature is going to be climbing towards 110F pretty soon. Nothing worse than employees stewing in their own sweat.
Based on past experience, you are going to have a hard time. In order to get a work permit in Canada you are going to have to show that you posess skills that are not available in Canada. And then, your work permint is only good for several years. You will be expected to train Canadian workers in your skills and then go back home.
Good luck, and don't expect to take your guns with you.
At our company we've been using the Axis Pan/Tilt/Zoom model to monitor remote sites over our WAN. We set one up initially to monitor construction at a site. It paid for itself in PR alone when our division's president was able to bring up the cam in a browser for a corporate board meeting.

All you fools who abandoned the Model M will pay when the Cylons hack your fancy new keyboards. (and don't get me started about Ethernet...)

I've heard the same thing from UK coworkers. Just be thankful you never had any of the government cheese they gave out years ago. Mmmm, tasty!
Hehe, having run over stuff with a D9, I can attest to how much fun this is. (FYI everybody, D6 and D9 are models of Caterpillar crawlers)
Sounds like somebody is bitter about getting an English degree instead of an Engineering degree...

You wouldn't happen to be my twin from a parallel universe, would you? Have you been asked to help move your boss's furniture lately?

The only thing wrong with your scenario is when the guy you hired to do all of your mission critical programming moves on.
