Hello,

I'm no STC member, but quite active in our German society (tekom). I would be
 very glad to get offers like these from time to time.

KD> There is a great

I've done jobs for much more than $100,000 I got through channels like these.

KD> Lots of our members find jobs through our
KD> membership chairperson.

Our market isn't so big. So placing an ad is simply out of question for many:
 Their employer could easily find out that they wish to change the job (that
 might be more of a problem over here).

KD> Best of all we got to talk a lot and
KD> share our experiences and ideas.

That's why I am nearly always among the last to leave a tekom meeting :-)

KD> I like meeting and talking with people, building relationships,
KD> and enjoying people just like God intended us to do.

You can do that much more freely if you need not see that face every day.

A friend of mine tried to send a message to this thread througgh my BBS, but
 he could not come through from the newsgroup side (I hope I have managed to
 come around that problem): He lives in Germany (i.e. has no regional STC
 chapter), is active in tekom and thinks his STC membership is well worth its
 money.


Greetings from Germany,
Alexander
