I saw the following ad in a Toronto newspaper, and I thought it might
interest anyone who is tired of shovelling snow.
 
Engineering Challenges in Papua New Guinea
 
The Post and Telecommunication Corporation of Papua New Guinea needs
qualified engineers to work on the National Five Year Plan to rebuild the
Analogue Network into a Modern Digital Network.
 
We need qualified engineers who can work on the following 

 * Digital Transmission Radio - (VHF, UHF, and BHF)
 * Digital Switching - Particularly with regard to Bell System 12.
 [Note from NDA: I think this really means Alcatel's (formerly ITT's) 
 System 12.]
 * Power Electronics - (UPS)
 * Data Transmission Customers Equipment and network design
 
The skills you need are: Project Management, Systems Design and
Specification, Advanced Maintenance Skills (Installation and
Commissioning). In particular, we are looking for engineers who
possess management experience and can demonstrate a proven rack record
in this area. Age is no barrier - we are looking for high achievers
with relevant experience.
 
For further information contact Mrs. Doreen Brew on + (675) 274 172 or
fax + (675) 274 628. Please send resume to: Mrs. D. Brew, C/Knightway
House, 20 Soho Square, London W1A 1DS, United Kingdom.
 
[Note from NDA: It's interesting that the PNG Post and
Telecommunication Corp.  is hiring people itself, rather than relying
on the international consulting arm of a telephone company, such as
Bell Canada International.]
