Is Tom retired? I thought he was just out of work. He's complained many times
about people refusing to hire him.

My experience, and my last position was as Operations Manager for a
construction company in Indonesia, is that when a company refuses to
hire someone there is usually very valid reasons. I might add that
education, per se, was not usually a major factor, quite the opposite
in fact as we were looking for people that could "do the job".

cheers,

Yes indeedy - your "experience" in Asia is really indicative of the high tech industry here. You are so knowing when we know that you came by your position because you were a white American.


Yes, the "High Tech" industry in Asia. China (Huawei) is the world's
largest supplier of telecommunications network equipment and
second-biggest maker of smartphones. Korea (Samsung) is the largest
maker of smartphones in the world. China (yet again) (Lenovo) is the
largest maker of personal computers in the world.

I could go on, but you get the idea.

As for white American, again you fall flat on your face. Certainly I
got my first job in Asia with an American Company that had contracted
to the U.S.A.F. to provide base maintenance and the contract specified
that they must hire "X" percent USians but after one year I resigned
and went to Indonesia to work in the oil industry where they didn't
care what color you were or where you came from if you could get the
job done.

cheers,

John B.


Really John, that is your idea of high tech?

But Tom, your knowledge of "high tech" is so extensive that no one
will hire you....

Perhaps you should share your idea of "high tech" or are you afraid of
more BTDT replies?

While you certainly were in high tech, it was at absolutely NOWHERE the
level I was at. I still have a couple of intercomputer communications
boards on the space station. Should I come to you to explain how to not
make typos?


So your "high" tech is measured in height above sea level. Comms has been
what computers have done since the first two chips shook hands. Perhaps
you might tell us what makes these boards so marvellous.

I've been resourcing and supplying intercomputer communications boards
for decades and "special" needs boards sell at a nice premium.

I really do think that morons shouldn't really be posting here. There is NOTHING special about communications boards except they were perfectly reliable of course since they were installed in the initial 3 unit space station.

What have you designed and what exactly gives you the idea that two chips wired together are the same thing as an international standard communications board?

There really is something wrong with you people who will do absolutely anything to pretend that you can tell your ass from a hole in the ground.

Sorry but can't resist asking why you're still posting then.

I protest and cry 'discrimination!' on behalf of morons.

Who decides which of us are morons?

Thats my point.

Yer, some of mine are now pounding the oceans in navy ships.

I never said I designed any. The word was "sourced" them for customers
and AFAIK they were all "standard communication boards". There is one
"mega-factory(tv doco description)" that saved $US millions(their words)
from my sourcing.

There really is something wrong with you people who will do absolutely
anything to pretend that you can tell your ass from a hole in the
ground.


I'm just taking great delight inpointing out your claims are largely
hollow and nothing special and any bicycle touring knows what "your ass'
does with a hole in the ground.
