Fingers Crossed

I had an interview today with a Dallas-based server farm. I have no proper training or experience working with servers. I watched my roommate play with the server we have here in the commune, but that's about the bulk of my experience. I went into the interview with them knowing full well that I have no experience. I was open and honest about what I do and do not know regarding computers and hardware. My entire hire-ability is based strictly on me being trainable and very very willing to learn. I should know by the end of the week if they are interested.

In the meantime, I'm still putting out resumes all over town for bookkeeping/assistant type jobs.

A lot of what you need for that kind of gig, besides the fundamentals, ends up being stuff specific to the company that you can only learn there any way.

So there's hope.

Thanks for the encouragement. I'm a nervous wreck playing the waiting game.
