[chiPHPug-discuss] Part time position {off-topic}

[<an...@gm...>]

I've actually got a part-time position open as a Junior Backup Technician.  Main job is to do tape manipulation for offsite but there would also be the need to do chargeback accounting (open to doing this in PHP) across backups and storage as well as data center tasks.  Its a 10 hour a week gig but may be good augmentation for a freelancer.  The job is over Union Station in Downtown Chicago, requirement is for afternoon on Wednesday other time during week is flexible.

Backup environment is an enterprise class backup system with EMC NetWorker, 100TB VTL, 1.5PB of backup tapes, and over 600 clients.

Please e-mail back if interested.
