I once blagged my way into a Java server-side contract with no Java at all except a 2 day foundation course. I lasted 18 months until the project finished. Where the welfare of my family is concerned I have no scruples as long as it's legal.

I graduated in the early-2k tech slump. First couple of jobs were in call centres.
It was doing helpdesk support for French speaking countries. The staff were all low paid 15-20k young people.
The language skills were the most important thing so there were lots of French nationals living here or language students. Only a couple of people with IT degrees because it just wasn't necessary.
One of the exciting jobs we had to do was run a repair (literally just go to ARP and hit repair) on a MSI package with installed the tnsname.ora file when users couldn't access some Oracle dbs.
One of my colleagues, a gorgeous girl with a great rack, was looking for other jobs.
She confidently told me that she was applying for oracle jobs because the pay looked good and the experience she had from the above procedure. Unbelievably she didn't even know it was a database and genuinely thought she had some experience in it.
With delusion you don't need to lie.
Wonder what would have happened if she'd got to interview.Comment
