Interesting.

Well, we had zero problems getting the 360 GHIII guitar to work in rockband.

That's our bass at the moment. I prefer the RB guitar though.

 

in our office it seems like they hire consultants when they need things done on time .. all the important things like making software to track all providers.. and maintaining the netwrk is done entirely by consultants... they work pretty much full time. some have other jobs they do also


I kind of want to see if I can snag a job at one of the roseville tech. business but I can't be picky.. I can prb get into one wth a tech support job since I've been doing it now for a year and a half then try to transfer over to a programmer when a spot opens... h.p. and nec are like 5 feet from my house. prob with h.p. is my uncles a ceo of agilent so they might now like that on my app lol

 

he's got the 360 version.

EDIT: damn me for waiting an hour to hit the post button.

 

So how did you get them on the roster?

Are they limited to local or remote or can they be either?

 

Oh, one other bit of advice, during the interview, don't tell them that.

An interview of mine that didn't work out...

"Why do you want to work in PA, you seem like you'd be better off in development?"
"Well, I just want to get my foot in the door. I'll probably work PA for a year and then try to move into development as soon as possible."

I found out later that one of the reasons I wasn't hired was because the guy didn't want to have to interview a new person next year and honestly thought I'd jump ship on him (which I would have in a heartbeat).

 

I wouldn't want to work at HP because every paycheck could be your last.

 

haha note taken... reminds me o some of my interview answers.. especially when I lived in arizona and was applyin to best buy and didn't care to take the job interview seriously since I didn't really want or need the job

they asked why I wanted to work there.. and I said because it seems like an easy job for me to do for a little bit to get some extra money until I move back home....

I pissed the lady off because she felt like I was moking her job... then what I said later didn't help... god I wish that interview was on tape... she pissed me offat the start when she made me sit in thewaiting room for 40 minutes... my first words out ofmy mouth was.. I hope you don't treat employees with that much disrespect... she was stunned

 

Honesty ftl

 

Actually, it was ftw in this case because 6 months later one of the dev teams hired me, and its been a much better ride than if I got stuck in PA.

Though, I have to say it did irk me for those 6 months.

 

I didn't realize it was at the same company

Another good thing is that if you get hired in to a job that is lower than what you want, and are immediately looking to advance you could either get stuck (my company won't promote you for 1-yr minimum) or you get branded as that guy who is always trying to get out of whatever job he's in.

We've had a few of those here. They didn't last

9. "Employee accused of faking being cop"

A Taco Bell employee was arrested for impersonating a law enforcement officer and attempting to arrest his managers and co-worker.

When a 27-foot-long, 11-foot-tall vehicle -- known to most as the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile -- was slowing traffic in a construction zone in Arizona, an officer ran its "YUMMY" license plate to make sure it was street legal. A bad computer entry erroneously showed the Wienermobile as having stolen plates, forcing the officer to pull it over. After further investigation, the officer learned that the entry should have read that license plate had been stolen -- but only if found on any vehicle that isn't a giant hot dog.
