Thomas, I'm aware I'm not in the best of standing, but I do have extensive IT knowledge from which I've gained through personal venture, and would like to contribute my skills to the organizations cause to improve infrastructure and reliability, while also improving my skills through learning and experience. Not to mention I have a fair amount of infrastructure myself in which can be used to test ideas and even potentially securely host services itself. In terms of finding a new job, I've discovered an opportunity for an paid apprenticeship within IT which I will be attending this upcoming December 22nd, and includes on the spot interviews.
