That's great if your Internet connectivity is still up, but if it isn't, you'd probably be pretty glad if you hadn't deleted it.

with a broken network connection putty seems a bit useless...

yea, i know.

i can tell you what i do

On: Moving Up the IT Ladder in a Poor Economy?

i dropped out of the university (physics) because of a job offer. i did well, but the company sucked, and i had two choices: a) go back to the university or b) go on and seek another job.

i took the latter choice. the secret is: do not write "resumes" or "CVs" in the common way. i do not mean that you should write or do anything extraordinary, just do not stick to the pattern of a typical bid. act like a human. when writing some kinda cv, write down the things you did and achieved till now. when you write your letter of application, say what you think. if you think the job you wanna hav is the job (like an osdn job or whatever), again, act as a human. if it's that important to you, do not write letters or mails, go there and convince them.

i think that's the secret: to not stick to comman patterns. ok, and you should have some common sense at hand. --
