From autarch at urth.org Tue Oct 10 13:51:36 2006 From: autarch at urth.org (Dave Rolsky) Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2006 15:51:36 -0500 (CDT) Subject: [Mpls-pm] Will work for money ... Message-ID: I sent this to a few lists a week or two back but forgot this one ... That time has come in my life where I'm in the market for a new job. I'm mostly interested in a full time position, though a suitably fascinating, well-paying, and long-term contract is something I'd consider as well. I live in Minneapolis and I'm not looking to move, but I do like telecommuting. I'm fine with occasional travel (once per quarter). My resume is online at http://www.houseabsolute.com/resume.html What I want is a position where I'm working on something interesting and meaningful to our users. I want to work with people who have both technical and social skills. My ideal company will value both technical and business excellence, and know how to balance those two when necessary. Please send responses off-list. Thanks, -dave /*=================================================== VegGuide.Org www.BookIRead.com Your guide to all that's veg.

DAMN YOU GOOGLE CALENDAR! Er, sorry. Google Calendar failed to remind me about the upcoming meeting day (actually, it had an issue with the whole of September, and who was I to disagree?). Clearly I'm unable to remember unaided. Consider this a very early call for talks for next month's meeting.... I promise there'll be one, even if it's just me talking.

Ah, no, I'm running it in that thar Google Sidebar thingy. I'm sure the calendar itself is lovely, but it's just not really waving at me when I'd like it to. Ho hum.

Don't know if this will help at all, but . Eventually (er, next month, I promise) there'll be an oop2 there coving more stuff. What books are you using? Object Oriented Perl, by Damian Conway (referenced at the end of the talk above) was my book of choice for learning OOP, but I don't know how good it is if you know nothing about OO at all (I had the advantage of a handy guru at the desk behind me when I started). Are you having trouble with OO concepts in general, or OO Perl specifically? Ian
