In response to the question you left me; considering I don't make near what most people in my position do, I've never really had dollar signs in my eyes. I'm fine with that so long as I can afford the necessities. I live in a one bedroom apartment not a lavish three story house. If I'm not using one of the company vehicles I drive a soccer-mom van that's sole purpose is to get me from point a to point b and isn't anything pretty to look at. During the day I run the corporate networks for banks, law firms, mortgauge companies, auto dealerships, churches, fire departments, police departments, ambulance services, a small handful of government agencies, schools, and several non-profit organizations. I help people for a living. My spare time? That too is spent helping people, from solving computer issues for users of the few video-games I've played a development role in, to creating useful tools and utilities. Not to mention the fact I provide free support to a user base exceeding 800,000 individuals and provide free server support to a number of companies. Friends and those in my user-base across various games (including several I don't have an administrative role in) frequently contact me for assistance. My entire waking life is spent having fun and helping others. Aside from posting troll-worthy viral marketing attempts for a company that I seriously doubt the integrity of, what have you done?"
If I didn't know better I would say that you're reading my resume, no succor mom van though. I would tip my cap to you if it wouldn't be perceived as being self serving. Anyway, best wishes.
Allow me to ask, since you were so generous in placing a counter-comment on my blog; what have you done as a system engineer, or human being, to better somebody's condition without having dollar signs in your eyes? The interest is sincere and without rancor.

So you joined just to promote you're hiring? Honestly, as a Systems Engineer I can't say that I would ever work for someone with such hiring practices. Working for trolls and virial adwhores es no beuno mi amigo."
FYI: It’s a nonprofit organization, operations are overlooked by volunteers and paid members, where and when needed, and all revenues go to cover operational costs and not one red centavo goes into these pockets, amigo. We have a certification group, a think tank, and an open source and fair hiring advocacy theme. We provide services to the underprivileged; senior citizens, veterans, and people with disabilities, free of charge. We also provide services to educational institutions where funding is scarce bringing computers and computer skills where otherwise it would be nonexistent, did I mention; not one red cent goes into my pockets? Take time to qualify before commenting, meanwhile crawl back to your administrator’s corner and ponder the ills of being presumptuous, amigo.
