Welcome to IWETHEY!

New I have to do something first
#1 Install Linux and OpenSSH

#2 Generate SSH key.

#3 Send it in.

#4 Find the time out of my busy schedule to take the test. Right now I am getting ready for vacation for a week.



"Lady I only speak two languages, English and Bad English!" - Corbin Dallas "The Fifth Element"

New Let's just say this
I don't think that you're qualified for the job. (In fact I strongly suspect that I'm probably better qualified than you are, and I know that I'm not qualified.) If you care to prove me wrong, you know how to do it. If you don't care, then don't.

But if you don't try and in the future ever dare claim that you were qualified, my opinion of you will drop even farther than it has already.

Regards,
Ben

New You may be right
but I find it odd that your opinion of me can drop any lower.

I admit that I am not qualified, I need a refresher course anyway.



"Lady I only speak two languages, English and Bad English!" - Corbin Dallas "The Fifth Element"

New Not odd at all
You haven't yet struck me as someone who would push an unfounded claim to skills that evidence suggests you lack. Therefore it is clearly possible for you to worsten the opinion that I have of you. And I described above one way you could do it.

If you did that, you still wouldn't have hit bottom. For instance I don't have the impression that you are an abusive person, prone to inflicting violence on people around you. And so my opinion can go lower.

There really isn't a worst possible opinion that I can hold of someone. There are even ways that I'm supportive of George Bush. (eg I believe that he has a good memory for people. I may not like how he uses that ability, but I think that he has it.)

Cheers,
Ben

New I may have had them at one time or thought I did
Like my C Language skills, I got rusty in them. I got A+ in both my C and Advanced C classes over 15 years ago, but now have a hard time writing simple C programs. Could be due to my mental illness and medical conditions, could be due to not using them in the past 6 or 7 years. Even my Visual BASIC skills have suffered a bit since 2001.

I thought, hey maybe I could apply for a job and see what happens. Guess I am not qualified for any job then. Recent postings from others to me have knocked my confidence level down really low and I am not sure if I can do anything anymore.



"Lady I only speak two languages, English and Bad English!" - Corbin Dallas "The Fifth Element"

New Your confidence level is your problem.
I'm not going to coddle your past behaviour or current problems.

I'm just pointing out that very few around here have much patience with people who claim to have a lot of skills that they don't. We're pretty good at noticing BS. We've all been burned by it. And we see no reason to accept it.

Regards,
Ben

New Not my only problem
dealing with negative people is another problem of mine. So is dealing with stress. So is having everything I do questioned, probed, examined, overanalyzed, misdiagnosed, and having conclusions jumped to.

I just am unable to do any job, or describe or communicate what I know to anyone's satisfaction.

                                             I was wondering about that... - (ben_tilly) - (1)
                                                 I should have been more specific. - (pwhysall)
                                             PAM does that too, IIRC - (admin)
                                         That is the way I do things - (orion)
                                         There are ways to actually have both. - (folkert)
                                     Norm there was enough misinformation in yer post - (boxley) - (5)
