Default latest victim of the dot-com lay-offs...

for some of you that have been around, you might have heard my stories of the ass kissing little weazle that wanted my job. the good news is that he got it; the bad news is that it means I was laid-off today.

So, anyone have any leads on a IT Manager/Network Administrator position?

almost Windows2000 MCSE certified. Mac experience. etc.

thanx for any help.

p.s. if no thoughts on a job, any thoughts on how best to sell the S2000 so I can eat and keep the house?

update:

I've had a few interviews with a consulting firm in Oakland. They just offered me the job today! Pay's about the same, PLUS I'll be driving the S all over the bay area and they pay mileage!!

one minor problem... they want me to put a magnetic sticker on the side of the car with the company name...

Am I crazy to do that??? Any thoughts??

There are STILL good IT jobs out there. I was laid off a few months ago, and found multiple offers within a month. Make sure to knock every interview out the park. It really helps to differentiate yourself!

Congrats!
