[TriLUG] Junior Sysadmin Position

[Andrew Blum]

Trilug,

When I was recently looking for a job (6 months ago), there only seemed
to be senior system admin jobs being posted.  I got a call from a
recruiter about this one today, and although I am no longer looking, I
thought I'd send this out for those who may be interested (I know how it
can be).  Please contact Tyler directly.
