[olug] job opening

[Dave Burchell]

In the immortal words of Homer, "Doh!"

Since I've got the list's attention, I wonder if anyone here has experience
with project management as a field.  I understand that one can be certified
as a project manager.  Has anyone here gone thru the certification process,
or had any formal project management training?

BTW, I happened to listen to the radio show Sound Money Saturday morning.
They had a segment on home improvements and the contractors who do that
sort of construction work.  The homeowners they interviewed had complaints
about their contractors that sounded eerily similar to client complaints
about software development projects.
