:: Well, if you know from this, that is for Project Manager, then you :: must apply :-) I cheated, I looked at the full advert. I wonder how long the writer took to work out his/her abbreviations? Perhaps I should ring up and say "I WNT 2 APP 4 THE PM VCNY", see if they can understand me!

This is a little scary, I understand most of that. It is probably due to my efforts to read what I copied on CW with Amateur Radio...

I'd have started with "Project management role in professional services division of leading Australian enterprise software company." (But only after reading your translation :) "MGG" for "management" is a bit odd... where is the 2nd G in management? :) No clue either about LD. Gerhard

:: No clue either about LD. Sorry Gerhard and Vitaliy, you are obviously not cut out for such high flying and intelligent jobs such as this, everyone, I mean everyone knows that LD means LEAD! :) Mind you I had to read the actual job description twice before I picked that up. If you think the lead in was bad, the non truncated version of the advert is - well I got bored reading it after the first paragraph, it's not an advert it's a short story. Colin Full advert. This new role in our client's Brisbane professional services division has been created due to growth of business and considerable new work in the pipeline in the Queensland region. The role is on offer to an experienced Snr Project Manager who is on the up and up and is looking for the next stage in their career.

So, putting everything together, we get: "Brisbane. Project management role in professional services division of a leading Australian enterprise software company. Background in project managing software implementations working for vendor or consulting firm a must! Practice Lead potential!" Gerhard -- so MGG stands for "ManaGinG". :) Vitaliy

You guys are crypto-analysts? Now maybe you would not pass that interview as you were too good at the decryption - meaning you are not manager but mathematician :-) On Tue, Mar 10, 2009 at 8:15 PM, Vitaliy <@spam@spamKILLspammaksimov.org> wrote: {Quote hidden}> cdb wrote: > >>>> BRISBANE PM ROLE IN PROF SVS DIV OF LDG AUST, E'PRISE S/W CO.B/G IN P > >>>> MGG S/W IMPLEMENT'NS WKG FOR VENDOR OR CONS FIRM A MUST!

I barely got a C in my Advanced Calculus course. Probably because I spent too much time programming the TI-89, hoping that it will do my homework for me. Ironically, my job duties include being a manager. Decryption in this case was simply a way to continue procrastinating (I have a daunting programming project that is screaming for my attention).

Taking a different twist on "lead", we recently had a situation where we wanted a rework done on several PCBs by a contract manufacturer. The rework instructions specified that a "leaded resistor" be used for one of the steps. The contract manufacturer actually came back and asked "can we use an un-leaded resistor since all of the parts we have are RoHS compliant?" :-) Sean On Tue, Mar 10, 2009 at 4:03 PM, Tamas Rudnai <KILLspamtamas.rudnaiKILLspamgmail.com> wrote: {Quote hidden}> On Tue, Mar 10, 2009 at 7:40 PM, Gerhard Fiedler <RemoveMElistsTakeThisOuTconnectionbrazil.com >> wrote: > >> No clue either about LD. >> > > Could be Lead Developer ?
