    asking for prayer and support

    my big interview for Server Analyst is today, asking that people pray for Jeff at 4 EST today.


    Also, how would you answer the question - what is your biggest weakness? I hate that question.

    that was good, I like it, thanks.

    Did not mean to ask so much, lol, but if I asked people to threaten the interviewer for me would that cross the line ?

    I'll be asleep at 4 but I wish you the best of luck.

    My greatest weakness is that I'm so beautiful. It's a curse really. Why god!?! Why do you mock me so!?!

    Good luck on the interview.

    I like to go with something along the lines of being too self critical. Don't spin it so that you give the impression you have trouble making decisions or that you are mired in self doubt though.

    You want to subtly imply your weakness is a strength. Don't be obvious about it.

    Whatever you come up with practice it in your mind, or better yet in a mirror a couple times.

    I'm sure there's lots of advice on that question if you drop it into a yahoo or google search.
    If it's true that wherever you go, there you are: how come so many people look lost?

    Starting to pray now.

    Hey, if you didn't get it you still free to run for the California recall after this one is over....

    Thanks everyone, Interview went well I think, would be Server Analyst for a 550+ server datacenter, with little admin work, datacenter was cool as hell.
