[GLLUG] my resume

[business@servicesbywilliams.com]

My house is now up for sale and we're moving to Ingham County. So I'm job 
hunting for direct employment within 45 miles or so of Lansing. My resume 
follows. I'm most interested in programming Perl, CGI, Postgres, MySQL in 
Linux but right now I'm in Perl/Oracle in Unix and my employer is moving to 
Java/JSP and Oracle. Still Sun Unix. It should be stated that I learn 
languages and environments continually and eagerly! 

Oh and I changed my e-mail account on the list too. I discontinued 
willcha@sme.org but people can still e-mail me there if they want. 

This is my cover letter and below my resume starts. This process might last 
a while, I don't know, so please keep me in mind. Thanks. 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
As a web programmer with www.sme.org, I work closely with 

* content developers and managers
* project leaders
* graphic designers
* web production technicians 

to produce dynamic web sites that contribute to the growth of my employer, 
the Society of Manufacturing Engineers. 

Other computer functions I've performed over the years include 
installations, maintainenance, help, document, test, support, graphics, 
copy-writing, project management, scripting, train, troubleshoot, 
specifications, purchase, research, presentations, publishing-production, 
proofreading and work flow supervision. I worked in computer pre-press 
production for the printing industry earlier in life. Computer typesetting 
too. 

I've also worked in the operating systems DOS, Windows, Mac, Unix, Linux, 
OS/2, MVS as well as applications ranging from database to IDE to 
spreadsheet to desktop publishing.  Will be learning JDeveloper 9i, and XML 
next.
