    How can I block my identity

    On my home machine, my wife spends a lot of time at Healthboards.com. A month or so ago some hostility arose between the older board members and the new. Essentially, the new didn't like the old. The hostility escalated to the point where the moderator began refusing to allow the older members...

    What to do about pesstimistic boss(CEO)

    Ghost, I can't argue with you. Your points are valid and, really, should be stressed. I think I differ with you about one point. Looking (researching the market) does not hurt. In fact, looking will reveal much about your current status. Are you qualified to move on to more responsibility? Are...

    What to do about pesstimistic boss(CEO)

    Of course, the apartment, utilities and other benefits are nice perks. I my opinion, medical insurance is probably the most important benefit you can get. Your position does not sound bad. The hours are normal. <br><br>Can you find another position where you can earn enough money to pay for the...

    What to do about pesstimistic boss(CEO)

    I think 30k a year for people with experience is under market value. I don't have stats to back it up, but I have an inkling. There are many variables, including region, number of jobs available, number of qualified candiates, etc. Have you checked the I/T job market lately? <p>Gary...

    What to do about pesstimistic boss(CEO)

    Ageism in IT

    In an industry that can not find enough qualified candidates, I would suspect that staffing needs would outweigh age discrimination.<br><br>There are plenty of trade-offs. The smart job searcher is aware of the trade-offs and tailors his/her job search accordingly. <p>Gary (akbryer)<br><a...

    I was hired at my present employers place of employment as a programme

    If you're looking to track changes/revisions to Word documents, how about Word's version control, and revisions tracking. I don't anything about autocad. <br><br>I've seen shareware and/or freeware, that tracks document changes. It might be worth the effort to look at that type of...

Some of which I had thought of, which you have reinforced (which, to me, is as important as a new idea), a few points that I hadn't thought about, such as the creating a discussion db (although, I think I'd like to make a combo, mail-in, discussion and...
