[linuxjobs] Linux Sysadmin required in Theale, Berkshire

[Matt Judge]

Stephen,

Some of us here are happy to see jobs without caring whether it includes this and that.  If the role looks interesting, I will chase the poster for further information should further information be required, as I am sure other genuinely interested people would too.

As for the others, if they don't like it, why don't they f*ck off somewhere else, because at this rate, with all their constant whining, this list is becoming pointless.

Matt.

Equally, if there isn't already, a separate list for this kind of discussion might be appropriate so as to avoid putting off potential employers.
