Recently on national job board you indicated your interest in jobs with the following skillset:

Java, J2EE, Linux, JBoss, and Tomcat

No I damned well did not, you lying sack of shit.  I have experience with precisely one of those, and it shouldn't be a hard guess which one.  (Hint:  It's orthogonal to the other four.)  Do you really think you're going to get my interest or get me to work through you when you start out by trying to feed me an obvious bald-faced lie?

It might be doable if it were only a constant pain. But it spikes sharply upwards so that it can't be masked at all times. If he could find a telecommuting job then it would be much easier. Especially if he was using text to communicate instead of audio. But with audio you can hit the mute button.

I think he could do any job that he set his mind to, if he could do it as a telecommuter. But right now he can't set his mind to anything because he's clouded by depression.
