Subject: RE: [eqbards] Follow up (OT)


Not as scary as you think. I saw a gaming book on the desk of my then boss
at my current job at my interview and struck up a conversation on it. When
he found out I was a role player he said he was sure I'd fit in real well.
Since I got the interview thru another gaming friend whose wife worked here,
there's no doubt gaming played a huge role in my getting this gig. We have
about 15 EQ players in Development alone out of about 45 employees in the
dept.

Ha! You assume that because I work here, I get good prices on drives.. BAH!
Welcome to Dilbert Land :)
Our Employee "Discount" enables us to buy drives at prices comparable to
CompUSA sales - hehe.

Besides.. are you sure you want to switch to Maxtor? Didn't I tell you that
I work in Reliability?
Taking your chances............

So I know this is "only a game," but I was wondering... do you suppose there
are enough EQ geeks around that putting on my resume under Accomplishments
"Level 50 Shaman and level 20 Bard on EQ" would like get me a job?

Hehehe ok, yes I've lost it :)

What are the chances of getting us all a discount on Maxtor
Part# 54098U8.

40GB (7200rpm/2MB cache) hard drives ;-)

I think I'm gonna buy one in a few weeks. I'm usually a Western
Digital or Seagate guy myself. But those drive specs on that HD
aren't too shabby. I'm willing to convert =o)

Harmonic.
