Re: mapics 6

Good luck on your new job Dave.  Did they hire you because of your MAPICS skills
or because of your other skills?  I really wonder what is the driving force in
hiring technical people today.....the applications, iSeries or programming.
What is your opinion....is MAPICS skills in high demand?

Carol,

Will do!

BTW, for those of you keeping track, I just accepted a permanent job with
another MAPICS customer today.  They (or should that be we now?) are running
release 6 already, but there's big pieces of MAPICS which have never been
implemented.  Should be interesting.
