		<description>In order of brevity:

@Chris: 

I will make sure I cast as wide a net as possible for the aforementioned party :)

@Dave B

The company did try - twice in fact, with SVP &amp; EVP approval - but the US government would not budge on the requirements (see below).

@Dave W:

For every year of a degree you do not have you need 3 years of professional experience to make up for it.  Since I only had 9 years of that, all I needed was something equivalent to a years worth of college credit.  Unfortunately Trinity does not grant partial credit for passed courses, so that was no use and an RHCE qualification with a bunch of other training didn&#039;t make up the difference. So home I go :(  The irony of dropping out of college and taking the job that now requires the college part is not lost on me.

As for Jen, she is also keeping her job and will work as a contractor from Dublin, so we&#039;ll both be back next year :)</description>

		<description>Shit man, sorry to hear that you gotta go. That really sucks, I&#039;d have thought the company would have been enough to get you a pass on that one.</description>

		<description>That&#039;s a damn shame that they&#039;re not letting you stay. Surely the fact that your company is willing to hold on to you after you&#039;ve moved would be enough proof that you&#039;re &quot;qualified&quot; enough to stay. Ah well, the good news is that things are gradually starting to get cheaper again here in recessionland so you might be able to afford rent come March.

And what&#039;s Jenny doing?</description>
