[GLLUG] Looking for possible employment

[Benjamin Cathey]

I may be looking for a position within the next 6 months and was wondering if anyone had a line on anything.  I'm A+ Certified and have 4+ years experience running linux servers (RedHat, Fedora, Debian, Slackware, Ubuntu) - file, mail and a Samba Domain Controller.  I also have 10+ years experience repairing desktops and laptops, simple all the way to ground up rebuilds (even on the laptops).  Also, 2+ years experience maintaining an AS/400 Mainframe.

I have also designed an entire Inventory system for a company which sells laptops and desktops wholesale.  The system included barcode scanning for receiving, selling and moving product.  An interface for the techs for repair and an interface for the salesmen.  Also qty discounts, etc.  Many other features too numerous to list.  Also I designed a bidding system to determine value on lots of thousands of PCs and laptops at a time and return a 'reasonable bid' report based on 60+ user assigned values.

I know some VB, some Perl, some Python, awk and Bash Scripting.

I also have experience with Dreamweaver MX 2004 (along with Fireworks, Etc) and some web-design, Adobe InDesign CS2, Photoshop and numerous other applications including all office software (Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Access), OpenOffice and even Lotus)

On the side, I have been working with PCs for the last 25 years (starting with and Apple II E).

I can think on my feet and am a fast learner.  All the languages I know I taught myself out of necessity. 

Please anyone, if you hear anything, let me know.  I know some of you work for companies that may be hiring (like Ideal So, etc.)

Thanks,

Benjamin Cathey
