    Hi all,

    I was just passin' thru and want your opions on this!

    I'm currently on the job hunt and was wondering what you guys think is the best IT company in Dublin to work for?

    On a side note, a good m8 of mine is going for an interview for tech support in Creative LABS, he wants to know what it is like to work there - any feedback would be appreciated!

    Cheers 'n' beers

    'ere, aren't you the same guy who's into ripping off IT companies?

    Remember kids - warezing might be one of those crimes that everybody does, but try not to make a lifestyle statement out of it smile.gif

    The sort of IT company you are looking for doesn't exist...

    What company needs needs someone with winzip, unace, unrar and ripping ISO skills? Answer : None

    Besides, wouldn't you just be wasting their bandwidth with that shít?

    Did you just take 2 random computer words and add support to the end?

    wtf is Multimedia tech support?



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,859 ✭✭✭logic1


    I believe multimedia tech support comes into play you just can't figure out why the sound won't work with your newly warezed copy of shogun. You phone "Multimedia tech support" and are clearly instructed that you, being the ninny you are, probably forgot to warez the sound add on for shogun....
    oops I've said too much....

    I don't think so, I'll be too busy HAVING A LIFE............ROFL!

    No, we work for an IT company in Dublin (well, one of us is Managing Director, but I work for it). We can type with all ten fingers, so this doesn't take much time out of lives.
    C.f. spending all your time on warez boards downloading Lithuanian Builds of cr4x0red Quake II and trying to appear l33t.
    Of course those who value l33tness (I don't really) would rank people a bit like this:

    Hackers.
    Sys Admins.
    Programmers.
    Script Kiddies who understand how scripts work.
    Green stuff growing on yoghurt in fridge.
    Users.
    Script Kiddies who don't understand how scripts work.
    Toilet-bowl limescale.
    Warez d00dz who know the Irish warez scene.
    Warez d00dz who ask people for some of whom warez costs money for disto links.
    Warez d00dz who ask people for some of whom warez costs money for distro links, and then tries to score job as same.

    It's one thing do use the odd warezed product now and again, but the warez "scene" is self-defeating. Warez d00dz all want to seem l33t, but nothing's less l33t than warez.

    I'd just like to make it clear - this POST has NOTHING to do with warez and has nothing to do with it - I was simply asking a question about work and everyone seems to have gone off in tangent talking about warez!?!

    Anywho, looks like I'm not gonna get the question answered.........It was worth a try though!

    heh

    Microsoft ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,859 ✭✭✭logic1


    Dang.. I rate pretty low on that "l33t" list. Anyway I hear Eircom are always looking for people in Dublin. I don't know if they'd meet your high criteria (let you leech warez all day then burn it on thier pcs) but they are faily good as far as Tech Supp goes, or so I'm led to believe.

    Well one of us spotted it, and we all laughed and couldn't resist replying.

    <font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Sys Admins.
    Programmers.</font>
