Made a RJ-45 jack today! Both A and B!

 

You never did get back to me regarding a possible career opportunity Joe. I'm still willing to consider it, even though you are a Jets fan.

 

God, I wish I had a dollar for everyone I've made... or, to maximize my profits, for every foot of cable I've pulled...

It was a nice 'night' job back in college... I've built enough networks to last me a lifetime...

woah now... you MADE a RJ45 jack? you melted the plastic and poured it into a mold?

or you made a cable using RJ45 jacks?





(hates to work on networks)

 

kind of O/T but. a friend of mine just setup a new comp. he went out and bought some RJ-45 because he needed to hook up cable. i said to him "pop quiz, what is the tech name for the cable you just bought?" he looked at me like i was a f'in alien. Is it weired that we know this kind of stuff?

 

I know completely where your coming from, I've been doing it for 7 years during the summers, after school, nights, xmas breaks, spring breaks, fall breaks... some nasty pulls also. The masonary drill is a joy to use also to get through those cement walls.

 

made my first when I was 18

woohoo

 

I'm 17

 

I think I miss that.

 

I was 16 when I started my job and did the first one.

 

A Jets fan and a poor speller. Nice.

Shake off the chlorine fumes and pull yourself together son!!!

I said in a previous thread that I could possibly assist you in pursuing a career in IT/Telephony, and you said you would send me an e-mail.

 

Seems to be somewhat unmotivated huh flafonman?

 

AS A MATTER OF FACT, yes I did melt some plastic and poured them in to a RJ-45 jack mold....j/j

Hey, I only had a couple minutes of class time left, plus the teacher was coming by, and well we're not supposed to be on the internet

OH OH oh, yes. We'll your probably going to have to shoot me an email first since I have almost no time to check my email, besides after 9:30 ish. Umm I'm actually planning on going to ITT tech next year, and taking some computer repair classes and networking classes.

 

Joe, trust me from this standpoint...

It is VERY rare that someone opens a door for you in this world. Fonman has really bellied up to the bar for you here and you really need to establish, if nothing else, a relationship with someone that is in the business and can potentially help when times are hard or when you have a question. Jump on this. You don't have to sign a contract with the man... he's simply offering to help you out some with probably anything that comes up.

Build the bridge man... relationships are everything in the business world and if you don't take advanatage of them when they are in your face and obvious, you sure as hell will miss them when they're hard to come by...

Bridges are tough to build and even more tough to maintain... building it is the first step. Take him up on his offer.

BOY you had better get your *** through the door before it CLOSES!!!!

Never pass up an opportunity especially in these days and ages. I know many of engineers that are NOT working in their fields because there is no field to work in, at least no open spots so they are making much less money then they could IF they had good contacts/connections.

Don’t take this wrong my friend just as a friendly headsup, if someone offers you a possible chance then NOTHING is more important then taking time from your life to go after it, don’t wait for someone to come to you, RUN to them…
