He comes across as a barely talented whiny ginger tosspot who has exploited the works of others (under the guise of crowd sourcing) for personal gain.
I'd be intrigued to know how much he's netted from all of the bollocks from here that he's compiled and sold.

how's the job hunt going?
Got a few leads?
Talking to some head hunters?
Policing the old, the old CV?
Bought a new tie?
Practicing in front of the mirror?
Training in your free time?
Making a list of company's you'd like to work for?
Writing a selection of covering letters?
No, no...oh ok, I'm sure it'll happen

No admin can manage another admin, so when one admins account fucks up there's just one person who can sort it. Except for the 38 days a year he's on holiday.

I had that with Citrix.
The UK part of the global team all got binned one day. They managed our admin accounts. I had to lobby to get promoted to a domain admin to admin the admins after one of our guys fucked his token up.
After the frustrated conversation I've had with global, I'm now apparently a webmaster. Whatever that is. I got a plea to not break anything, so it sounds like fun!

Well for me it was:
click on AdBlock Edge icon, select "open blockable items"
in the new pane at the bottom of the screen, find "static.usvsth3m..." and double click on the line.
click "add filter" at the bottom, it defaults to the block pattern that I mentioned.

Fun fact.
Windows has an inbuilt system to allow remote access from anywhere. You enable it, give me your machine deets, I can log in.
At least, it was there in XP. Haven't bothered looking in later versions.
