[TriLUG] DOH!

[John Turner]

After looking at the original post again I only see 4+ years total 
experience required. That doesn't see like a lot to me. I do see many 
different skills "required" and to some that might seem like an issue. 
But to me I often say if I have half of the stuff they are asking for 
and the ability to learn then my opinion is that I can do the job. Next 
you have to convince the person hiring that this is true. In most cases 
unless they find that one special person that matches perfect you are 
going to be in good shape.

So my advice apply for the job even if you DON"T have all the 
requirements. The worst that will happen is they will laugh at your 
resume, but you will never know that so it shouldn't be a big deal.
