My life is not over, and I want to be useful, thus I want to find a remote job.

I have spent the past 4 years rehabilitating from my accident, that has left me with some mobility issues. And wile for some of that time I felt relegated to retiring into obscurity. Well you know what, NO, I'm not dead, yet, and while my body may not be perfect my mind, where the real me lives, is just as good and strong, if not more so, as it has ever been. More to that point, I think I'm in a better head space than I was even when mobility wasn't a challenge.

I have skills, I have knowledge, I have experiences that are valuable, and I'm not ready to go quietly into the night, to that end I'm going to copy the contents of a cover letter that wrote up this morning, it might be a work in progress but isn't life a work in progress, so give it read and let me know what you think.

Dear Sirs or Madam,

I am offering my skills and tool-sets to companies, organizations, and teams that require modern, reliable and rock solid computer deployment for development, hosting, or storage system anywhere in the world that has an in place network connectivity. These skills, I bring, I have developed because I have in the past few years been faced with personal mobility challenges brought on by unfortunate circumstances. Turning these limitations into positive productive benefits to everyone has allowed me to take all the experience I acquired over my 45+ years working in the IT sector and make it work for today's business needs. From the project management of ensuing the bare metal hardware and connectivity requirements are met, to the actual remote deployment and even on going administration, I bring the skills and tool-sets to the table.

My background experience as a Senior Systems Administrator in the UNIX/Linux servers and network connectivity, I have worked in large data centre’s and smaller VFX Studios and everything in-between, the one constant is my commitment to keeping the systems and associated infrastructure running reliably and up to date.

While most of my experience is in UNIX/Linux servers and the associated Networks, I have had massive amounts of experience with all technical operations, project planning, and user/client support. Additionally I have experience in VPN connectivity and System Security, ensuring reliable and secure connectivity of systems connected at distance. I have become an expert in making these systems work in the way the organization and users needs to be successful.

Currently offering my skills and an independent freelance IT administrator and security consultant, I am open to full-time, part-time, or as needed engagements. I have experience in every aspect of administration, and worked onsite and remotely. I have a very technical background in servers and networks, their configuration and troubleshooting. As I have some mobility issues am seeking remote positions.
