Network Engineer

[Raymond P. Biondolino]

Ken,

My name is Ray and I have included a
link in this e-mail to my resume page on
my website.  But before you bother
yourself with that, I just want to
comment on something.

I've been in this business a long time
(translation:  I'm an old man) and while
I feel I have probably half or better of
the skills you are requiring for this
position, it just amazes me at the grand
total of skills presented here.  I
command what I think is a fair price for
my skills, but if I had the complete
skill set you've put down here I would
have to think I'd be worth twice what I
ask for now.  And it really would
surprise me if you pay that much.

My point is this... What would a
position like this pay provided you
actually found someone to meet ALL those
requirements?

I'm just curious!

Thanks,

Ray

P.S.  I excel at drinking Mountain Dew
and eating pizza!!!
