Devconnections Orlando

Devconnections.com is having their latest conference in Orlando! I wanted to go to the fall conference in Vegas pretty bad and wasn't able to due to the cost, so I am glad this one is just a few miles away. I will definately be attending. These conferences look great and I am really looking forward to it!

Web Developer Position

My boss is submitting a requisition for a web developer today so I thought I would post it here before it ever gets to one of those public job listing sites. (And because I would really like the referral bonus!) Here are some quick details, this is unofficial but probably what the job description will look like:

Title: Web Developer II
Location: Maitland, FL (Basically Orlando - mapquest it)
Company: Sungard Higher Education
Requirements: ASP.NET 2.0, Classic ASP, SQL Server 2000/2005, Bachelor's degree in related field
Salary: 54K (I am 99% sure on this)

The company is in the fortune 500 so we are big. The Maitland office has about 150 people. My department only has 8 people which are all cool guys. All of the projects can be accomplished in the time projected. My boss doesn't look over your shoulder or any of that nonsense and is very nice. You'll get full health benefits and 401K and all that stuff. You get 3 weeks vacation, which is very uncommon. (After 4 years it increases to 4 weeks!, after 11 years it increases to 5 weeks!!) You also have 2 weeks sick leave and 8 corporate holidays. Personally I think this is one of the best company/jobs you can find on the east coast right now.

If you are interested or have any questions send me an email at rush@rushfrisby.com.

Blog Tagged

I've been blog tagged by Evan; so much for starting the year off with a good post. In honor of this tagging game I need to post 5 things that most people do not know about me. Thanks a lot Evan :-P

1. While taking the SAT I was tired of reading all of the English exam questions so I skipped every other section and guessed. I scored a 1200+? (it was a long time ago) which is pretty good.


2. I am a certified scuba diver. I do most of my diving in the Cayman islands.


3. The engine in my first car blew up, twice. My second car was totaled (not my fault). I am on my third car right now (pray that nothing bad happens, thanks!).


4. I spent new years eve writing code. Yes, my girlfriend was pissed.


5. I have been playing soccer for the last 16 years and I love it.


6. One more for good luck: I love to snowboard, too bad it doesn't snow in Florida :'(

I am not tagging anyone, you are safe... for now!
