        • I think you are talking about Oakville, not burlington, I've been there for 1 month, (business trip) I don't it's the richest city. but it's very quite.

    • 祝贺, Enjoy some quiet life there.
    • Congratulations! Could you share your expirences about the offer?
      • Well, because my position is techinical leader, a sort of management position, my experience won't help u guys too much. Because all they want from me is people and project management skill sets, and some techinical background.
      • 不过用news group找工作很好哦,是个非常好的途径.
        • 请问tor.jobs和news group是什么意思?
          • newsgroup就是新闻组啦, 需要对internet补一补课了. Ask ur ISP to see if they provide u news server
            • 我还是不明白,从哪得到tor.jobs,见笑,见笑
              • some answer
                check http://groups.google.com/groups?q=tor.jobs&meta=site%3Dgroups, if u want to use ur outlook express to access news server, u have to find a news server first. i am using rogers@home's news server, which is only available to its customers. btw, check outlook express help for more information about newsgroup.
      • btw, i found the job posting from tor.jobs, thanks jacky for sharing that information to me. after the 2nd day surfing that newsgroups, i received the interview, and settled down 2 days after.
        however, i think the most challenging part for new landed immigrant is communication issue. my CTO told me that he talked with several Chinese for another position, he doesn't feel that he could communicate with them at all. if u r new immigrant, try to improve ur spoken english ASAP, staying at home won't help u at all. good luck for those friends who r still looking for position, once ur communication is not an issue for u, u will find job easily if u r not too picky..:)
        • I know that is the big issue, but how to improve it is a bigger issue too. English is a big rock on the road. :)
          • It takes a lot of practice and time. btw, the biggest problem for most chinese spoken english is the rhythm, not the word pronounication. Try to watch some popular TV episode again and again, and learn how they speak.
        • You are welcome very much, I thougt it should be the common sense, every IT guy should have known news group stuff. hehe..
          • I sure know the newsgroup stuff, but always used it to find some technical solution, never tried to find a job there..:P
    • Congratulations!!! Will we meet you at our FB parties? My daughter likes your car.
    • Congratulations, but too far for us to FB
    • Great! You made it!!!!
      • 谢谢inthesky, 是他说穿红衣服有好运气的:) 所以我这两天一直在穿哦:))
        • 很小心的问一句,樱桃和如风,有关系吗?(不会又惹麻烦吧?)
          • 应该是最最亲密的革命同志关系
            • 你多长时间刷新一次?又抢到我前面去了,我分特!
              • 刚写完一段code,上来正好遇着,嘿嘿
          • 是合法夫妻。
            • 不是非法同居……hoho
        • 啊?!没想到原来可以传递的哦……hoho……
    • 是不是I2?祝贺!
      • not i2...:) a very small company...but the best thing is i don't have to worry about being laid off..:P actually, the company is worrying that i may quit after several months..
        • Happy for you! You can get promotion very quickly in a not big company.They told me it takes 8-10 years from junior to senior position in big company, while in small one you may only need one year.
          • that's absolutely true, and after u accumlated 3-4 years management experience, u could go to the states and receive a very decent job or still work in some start-up.
            • It is good for you not work in our team.Our team is really mature and the senior person is aggressive, and...
              • Big company usually has more political issues..:)
    • 好好好!我要下楼和你握手祝贺,沾点运气,西西..
    • congratulations!!! Very glad to hear that!!
    • 恭喜恭喜
      • 最近 恭喜(map)跑到哪里去了?
        • 你问他干嘛?你觉得他是?
    • 恭喜恭喜,那儿可是富人区啊,靠湖边有几家人的房子就像电影里面那些进了大门还要骑马的那种。
      • 什么样啊?没见过,给讲讲
        • 等如风见了再详细描述吧,我也是路过
          • 行,好的。
          • 我来说吧,虽然我没有看见你说的那几个房子,不过....
            他们公司旁边的房子就非常的高级. 从绿化来讲,每棵树度有10几年的历史,所以到处都是绿荫. 再说房子, 都是非常大的, 而且每栋和每栋都不一样. 在加拿大我第一次见到这样的房子呐.反正那里环境非常好, 就是太静, 我不喜欢.还是喜欢scarborough的热闹.
            • 呵呵,热闹的地方,你的望远镜有用武之地。:P
            • 上面有网友说那是加拿大最富的城市,我真想去瞧瞧
              • 我也第一次听说亚. 不过喜欢静的人真适合在那里居住.
              • Stat Canada's ranking, Burlington has the highest income per capita in Canada
                • 那的人都是干啥的?那么富?
                  • u know it is just toronto's outskirt, professional whitecollar/yuppies happen to live there
                  • my friends (a couple of euro phd), earn ~180k cad$ as a household, they dont necessarily work in burlington, they just reside there.
    • 恭喜恭喜!!又有理由腐败了!你会搬家吗?
      • 暂时不会, 即使搬也会去密市.
        • 去密市买一栋2k sq ft big big house吧
          • 来密市把,LIKEPLAY 也在BURLINGTON工作,樱桃,可以转移FB阵地来密市了,十万个欢迎,我们不用再从密市开车到史家保了。哈哈。
            • 那我们大家可不高兴拉
            • 他不会是在skyview rd吧?
        • 密室是什么地方?
          • 密西沙加.
