I got up at 7:15 today, all awake and refreshed. First time I've done that in years.

But someone more inclined on networking can clear this up :D
If you gain ftp access aka root access you're winner and you're getting all. Or almost all, good security infrastructure still can stays in your way.
Ok how about this: Shouldn't the bot change the pass if it cracked it, so that the admins won't be able to transfer files anymore (and 'fix' the problem)?
If the site is cracked to that level it certainly can do that. However "majority" of security flaws is not so big. These are just unexpected things how to get around.

As for me is looking like that HC provider is using software which they adapted for their own needs (very usual ) and someone find a critical hole in that customization. Question what and where is the other one.

I'm really nervous right now. I'm going to a follow-up on a job interview. We're gonna play a scene where I try to sell them a Global Cash card. I'm so nervous :nervous:
This is a bank for goodness sake...I really want this job... :S

Thumbs up! ;)
Although I wouldn't be able to work in bank. This would be forcing against a nature.

PS Such scene is easy! Just sold two. :-D

Good luck Milla. :)

The worst part is the waiting before the interview, when you're thinking at it the whole time ;)

Just forget about it, and let time pass. You will do fine, I'm confident of that. Good luck :)!

Yes, don't think about it that much, you'll be surprised how better it will be this way :)

Something else to think about before the interview? Well, a thought you could try and think about would be:

Skunks spraying punks who wear trunks that think they're hunks.

I was sh*****g bricks when I came in. OMG! But then I just told them that I was a bit nervous and they calmed me down really nicely. Also they told me that they liked me very much the first time I was in for an interview, and that really eased my mind. Except for some minor blushing, I did alright :)

Before I could leave I had to take a test though. Questions like: what's the name of this and that minister, what's 2% of 4000, and where are the Canarie Islands located. I hope I did alright :sweat:

Some of those questions are very easy (like the 2% of 4000 one) but it's quite annoying that at times when I'm nervous I answer even the easiest questions wrongly. :D

:) Thank you so much. I really do too. I'm just not sure of anything cause I know that there were many many applications for this job and I know they have more follow up interviews tomorrow so I don't wanna get my hopes up...

About the percentage thing, I'm pretty sure I messed up cause my mind was well...blocked as you guys say...

You just have to let it go for now, and stop making yourself mad. You did everything you could, now just wait for the result :)!

You're absolutely right. I just hate being disappointed but it's really out of my hands now. Think I'm gonna go get some sleep now. Been a long day :tired:
