I should mention outside of this ad that Nextrials is a great place to
work. It's a small company with lots of potential and is totally in love
with FreeBSD and open source software. The work load is high but the
environment is relaxed (no corporate dress code, etc). We'd really like
to hire a real FreeBSD admin, not just someone that knows linux and
threw FreeBSD on their resume just for us.
If the idea of working in an all FreeBSD/open source shop appeals to
you, please send us your resume (as detailed below).
Thanks!
-Bill
