Tier 2 support for a program called BladeLogic. they wanted someone with Linux and Database expeience [19:21] nice, they are hiring bladelogic support peeps? [19:21] yes [19:21] BMC is a big ass company [19:21] Yep [19:21] They are "home sourcing" [19:22] ya, like most [19:22] They are about 3k too low but we will see what happens [19:22] pfft [19:22] 3k isnt anyhting to balk over [19:22] well [19:22] when you are eating ramen everyday it is [19:23] once opn a time, I remember when $3k was like 1/4th of my annual income heh [19:23] yea heh [19:23] well, I'm more refering to all the other things about the job [19:23] the pay is just 1 of many facets [19:24] I would take a $3k pay cut to work from home in a heartbeat [19:24] maybe $0k [19:24] $10k [19:25] it's like saying, if I paid you $70k for a shitty job you'll hate [19:25] or $65k for a nice boss, more fun work but shitty commute [19:25] or $60k for a shitty boss and great commute [19:25] or $55 for work from home, fun job, great boss [19:26] pace_t_zulu: should I email it to you at haitas.com [19:26] ^-- point being, money is all relative [19:27] when we hired a jr linux guy, the position was for a Jr guy, we didnt have a need for a $90k sr admin [19:27] the position was for $55 i think [19:27] 55-60 [19:27] so ppl would appl for a jr job [19:27] and be like "you guys dont pay enough" [19:27] I'm like "no, we're paying for the position we need." [19:28] but the "jr guy" rocked and took the lesser pay [19:28] and 6mo later got a $10k raise [19:28] actually 13k [19:28] 57 -> 70 [19:28] but anyways [19:30] http://imgur.com/gallery/GYNVc [19:32] nice [19:33] pace_t_zulu: you get my message earlier?
