With a PC and an internet connection you have the means to obtain everything you need to work a lot of well-paid jobs. There are scads of good, free developer tools out there just waiting for you to download and start using them to earn money. But of course you'd rather have your grievances. -- Mike Ash Radio Free Earth Broadcasting from our climate-controlled studios deep inside the Moon Many of us have hired what I call 1099ers (to those not in the US, Internal Rev, Service form 1099 is how payments to consultants or contract workers are reported) without ever seeing them in person. We simply agree on a work product -- usually intellectual property in the form of a report-- and how to define when it's done. If there's a skill set I don't have in house that's how the void is filled. What has to happen, though, is people with unique 'skill sets' for lack of a better word, have to make themselves known to prospective buyers. I found it interesting to learn I had hired one such person who lived in Germany -- it was only well into the contract I found that out. Here's a thought experiment. Suppose someone would take a year's worth of sim time -- oh, 700 or 800 hours -- and devote that time to positioning themselves with a marketable skill set. Do you think they could find themselves living comfortably anywhere for the following years? I thought the beverage of choice in France was wine, not whine. |

Do you have any sense at all at how stupid it is to first claim all but one of your interviews has resulted in offers, then to state getting interviews is difficult. I would agree there is nothing inconsistent in those two statements, but the image you attempt to set in one -- "I ace interviews" -- is defeated in the other. Whatever mirror you use to view yourself is offering distortions. You're stuck in a bad place in terms of mental health, and a dozen sessions with a good cognitive shrink would probably help. In the meantime, do continue to amuse us. |

In your universe insisting somethign over and over again in the face of overhelming evidence to the contrary seems to conceal, to your mind, in any case, te fact that you are consistently wrong. Bertie You can see an amazing pattern in Mxsmanic's posts. "Living in Paris" is an abstract concept locked in his head. I doubt that a dumpster existence even equates as anything related to "Paris" in his mind so the elegance of the fantasy remains as an escape unassailed by the moronic reality of his life. as someone who has worked in computer systems for 26 years I can assure the readers that this kid has not got a clue about computer based systems. his knowledge, if it amounts to anything, is based on an obsession with the computer in front of him. networked systems, servers, any of the real basis for modern computing, is so far over his head that he will not ever be useful in IT. His rantings are so much like the religions of tibet, "we have all the world's knowledge". when the west explored the society of the region it turned out that all that they had was the chant "we have all the world's knowledge" and nothing else. technology had yet to be appreciated. the manic one is soooo tibettan. on aviation knowledge the kid does not have a clue. I often wonder whether he has ever actually put his hand on an aeroplane. he would bring an enormous amount of peace to his life if he ceased posting to R.A.Student and the rest of the aviation newsgroups. He should confine his posts to the simmers, but even there he'd get toasted for his assinine stupidity. intelligent???? maybe in the manner of an idiot savant but give us a break, there is more intelligence running around in 8 bit chips on the moon. this kid has the most amazing retinue of excuses of any person I've encountered. Failure with a capital F is locked into his psyche right beside the abstraction of "Living in Paris" the only good aspect to all this is the fact that he is too stupid to be able to ever actually fly an aircraft.

Why are we wasting time with Anthony?
His favorite topic is himself. He will never admit that he's mistaken. He will never take responsibility for his own actions. The only logic he uses is circular, to support his own twisted assertions. He can't find or hold a job on either of two continents. He does not fly, never has, and never will. Yes, it is fun to insult him and his faulty logic- it is kind of Usenet Wack-a-mole, but he will never, ever "get it". It simply isn't worth engaging him in any reasonable discourse. It gets old pretty quickly. |

It gets old pretty quickly. Oh, exchanges on these threads expose a character flaw of mine -- Anthony amuses me (and seemingly some others here). Textbook rationalizations. The only real disappointment is his are so predictable, and that does make it get older before its time. I keep hoping for more original content, but it's been a while since I had seen some, other than his careful parsing of "well it didn't come with windows" as he refuted someone's argument that one could make money with IT with minimal connections. I had wondered for a time if he might in fact be someone who flies heavy iron and had assumed a persona for the sport of it. It would be a great joke on us if the living in Paris and serving as a guide was a made up something from someone living in, say, Scranton PA. I am afraid, though, he really is the sorry clown that's been exposed here. Having said that, I will admit I do believe there should be a given amount of vice in everyone's life, and although I'm actively interviewing other vices, until I find one I'll continue to read, and post to, some of these threads. This is pretty far off topic even for this thread: -- it has been costing me as much to fly my own airplane on an hourly basis as it does to play Pinehust #2 -- but it's still cheaper than Pebble. |

Not that I really care- I do believe Anthony is a real person, and does live
in Paris. He obviously has some significant problems with social adjustment, and this is the reason why he can't find or hold a job, although he blames others for his own failures and shortcomings. |
