Can you clarify why you're pursuing them? I find the certificates you should go for depends on whether you're looking to a) just learn or b) impress recruiters. Some certificates are mutually exclusive in that regard. It may also

Pretty standard in the world of VoIP these days, really, but at the time I was new to the technology and the feeling I got when 6 different call centers with a combined 120 agents called me within 5 minutes to complain will always make my s

I would say you need to incorporate a mix of honesty and ingenuity into your response to these situations. If you're asked to 'code a solution to this problem on the whiteboard', the honest answer would probably be that you n

The amount you apologised at the end of your post gave me some indication about where your head is at now. You may be stuck in to rigid a routine to be able to see it (everyday you go for a long walk and drink). Maybe change things up a bit

If I feel sleepy in the early/mid afternoon I'll head to the bathroom and have a slow quick wash of the face and neck with a damp cold flannel. Gets rid of the daily grime etc. and leaves you feeling refreshed. Followed by a coffe

If you're not a good a fit then, you're not a good fit! I will say, in my experience, a companies interpretation of what a Product Manager sometimes varies like British weather.. It can feel like a Product Manager is something new

Perhaps you could consider, as another poster suggested, that you're talking to two different audiences. One is technical.. a 'terminal expert'. And one probably isn't. Have you ever had a simple ping command running on

I've been in the VoIP industry for over a decade now, and in almost all cases of 'bad VoIP' I can trace the blame to a bad implementation of it. Let me give you an extreme examples... - It's fairly common practice in cou

You haven't mentioned this as an option - but food for thought. Have you considered some kind of partnership? Your competitor may have plans for Europe, in the future, and buying you out may save them hassle later on. Furthermore, if y

FWIW, you can take parties to a sort of court (I use that word lightly) that can assist you in obtaining a domain taken by a squatter. It's been a few years, but google ICANN and I'm sure you'll find something. If I remember

They've probably dialed a cheap route (UK landline) to be non-obtrusive. Whilst the others are more expensive. I suspect this fraudster would 'resell' the route to a wholesaler.
