welcome :) and enjoy your stay!
btw, how did you find out about us?
TSOG
Actually, I searched in google for it. I wanted to see if there were any helpful forums at all for the Lebanese IT fanatics. I guess this is good enough. Not too many members though. Not too many posts either.Why is that?
mahdoum
Well it's a fairly new website, anyway welcome here =). If you like the site maybe you'll contribute hehe.
Anyway what kind of stuff are you into?
TSOG
I'm into everything cyber. I like to mess up with emulators and encryptions mostly. I love hardware, mod chips especially. I'm a real IT fanatic. Never get bored of it. Peace out!

Dude you're like some character from the movie hackers.
What's TSOG for by the way?
If you know some fanatics, bring them over. Maybe the moderator can provide you with your own forum category.
TSOG
Well, I could get dozens of IT freaks just like that. One problem though, I'm afraid these forums are not cool enough for them. Don't get me wrong or anything, but I wouldn't want to get kicked out of THE CIRCLE, eh? Peace out!
rolf
Yeah, precisely, that's what I meant when I talked about having your own forum category. You dont want your freaks to mingle with newbies.

By the way, do you have any tips to give about finding an interesting job in Networking and telecommunications in Lebanon? I really like this stuff.
TSOG
Well, I'm no expert, but here's how I'd do things. Just go somewhere related to networking and communications, and ask for a trainee job. That would be unpaid of course. The next thing you need to do is get the clients to like you. I'm talking really REALLY like you. Make them feel that you're their friend. Be honest. When they ask questions, simply answer. Don't try to be a smart-ass dude. In a couple of months, after heavy duty work (the old technicians will make you do all the work while they watch), just quit. Now comes the fun part. On your resume, you can now claim that you have experience, which you do. Connections, which you do. And a reference, which you also do. A job is guaranteed that way. Not only that, you can hand out your number to all the clients you met in the line of the job. Trust me, the phone will never stop ringing. There was this family once, I kept providing them with technical support for 3 months, every single day. I have clients by the dozens now. Remember, if anyone asks anything, explain, and make it look good. Don't imply to them that it's complicated and that they wouldn't understand it. You'd be throwing away the entire client-technician relationship down the crapway. Peace out!
rolf
Thanks!
That's good, because I've been told that I'm good at explaining things, and I actually enjoy it and take pride in it.
I can understand that trust and respect are crucial, having been myself too many times on the bad end of the phone support of various ISPs.
The bad end being the client who is expected to be nice, to pay, and not to ask too many questions or complain about the crappy service.
Peace y'all and thanks again :)
