    Getting a job off of Craigslist

    I found a few reputable positions on the charlotte, NC site. One was for a support position for the fixed income trading group working directly with traders. The recruiter was out of manhattan. Usually there isn't much though... typical IT stuff, maybe a prop position or two.

    wow spyder, that exit on COGO was one day too early... too bad our methodology doesn't predict partnerships with Microsoft :) I hope some of you guys got in on this.

    Hey guys, it has been a while since I posted, trying to get back in the saddle... :) In a general engineering sense the first derivative of a moving object represents velocity and the second derivative is the acceleration of the object. Acceleration would be the rate of change of velocity...
