I'd actually consider it, but that pay rate isn't that much more take-home than what I'm making now.

Tho I wonder, if I arranged to still live in Ohio but work in New York state, how that tax situation works out?

If you set foot in NY, NY says that your taxes go to NY. Even if you only touch it while commuting to work and not actually doing the work there.

So, according to how NY does things, if I drive to Main in order to do some consulting work. I'd owe taxes on that to Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine..... that would be over 100% of net. wtf!

Yes, but only NY does that. It's a major issues for truckers who pass through the state and owe taxes for every day that they were on the soil even just for a minute.

I'm guessing they only bother people without the money to fight back? Because that is the exact scenario that caused The Articles of Confederation to utterly fail.

Same policy, basically, that the fed uses. So good luck fighting it.

Good old Merica. I need to find a fiddle and a roof.

@Minion-Queen said in Looking for SharePoint Developer:

@coliver Yes they are on Office365

Not surprising. SharePoint on Office365 is slightly different then the one locally hosted (from my limited experience) It can be a powerful tool if they are building an app to facilitate or replace file sharing. But if they just want to use it for a glorified WebDav repository then there are other tools that would work better.

Any reason OneDrive for Business wouldn't work for them? Or will there be ownership issues if they go through that process?

Owner Ship issues is what they seem to think. Like I said they just really need someone that really knows SharePoint well to help them get it setup. A Developer is what they asked for but....

Yes, and it is what YOU asked for in turn, knowing that if you deliver that, it will be a big failure. That's my point. If you know that they asked for the wrong thing, you have to manage that. Repeating bad information will just lead to getting the wrong resource.

Thanks a lot @NetworkNerd

What does does HR do if not put out accurate and reasonable job postings? 😛

I did my stint in IT/Engineering Recruiting many moons ago... I'm now blissfullly ignorant when it comes to the inner workings of human resources.

This comes to mind:

the volume of my voice

that's totally a StrongBad problem 😉

Unfortunately I don't have any info to date. I was just advised the team is out if the country for the next 2 weeks. So hopefully I will have an update then.

Good luck man, this market is so saturated... VMware if you wanna work for a corporation.

@craig.theriac said in Job Posting: Operations Coordinator at Scale Computing:

@travisdh1 Not really a management position today, but perhaps in the future. It is definitely a lot for 1 person to do, but such is life in a startup 🙂

Hope you guys get a "challenge accepted" soon!

I'm probably going to be looking starting the beginning of the year, and @scale will be on my watch-list when the time comes.

Yeah, if it is static content, I would just dump it into a hosted CMS like wordpress.com

@thwr said in Linux Junior Needed in Bucharest:

@scottalanmiller So I should better not tell anyone about my 30 paid days per year? 😉

I've officially had as much as 36 in the US, but don't know anyone else who has ever gotten as much. It took a lot of seniority to get numbers like that.

Unofficially I've had a job tell me to just "stop working" for 2+ months and keep booking hours. That's how we did our huge backpacking tour around Europe in 2012, partially.

@JaredBusch said in Lotus Notes to Microsoft Access:

@Dashrender the problem with using an actual database like MySQL/MariaDB/SQL Express is that you then have to write an interface to even look at the data. For simple data, it is much easier to simply use the GUI that Access/Base provides to look at records.

That's mostly true. If the data is flat or flat-ish, though, standard free tools like myPhpAdmin will give you a GUI without any extra effort. It's not technically included in the base package, but is so standard that many people think of it that way. But definitely would not require writing your own interface if the data did not need to be reassembled in a relational way.
