Hey for a school activity we need to research a company and find out what it would take to get a job there. So the first company that came to my mind was the best company in the world ;P TGC. so here are my questions.

1) What languages do you have to have proficiencies in?

2) Do you have a actual office building or is it all done over the web?

3) How large of a staff do you have?

4) any other information that might be helpful for this assignment.

thanks,

Well some are rather large, but how large, it wouldn't be fair to say, but most of the staff are sort of the medium size, very few small...

Sorry, couldn't resist misinterpreting that question.

- they have dedicated rooms in their houses to do their work, since mike and lee live close, they sometimes code together.

3) How large of a staff do you have?
- maybe 10 or more

rich or rick will probably be the best ones to answer your questions.

another suggestion, browse the newsletter archives, there's tgc history in there somewhere.

eheheh... that kind of bad pun reminds me of the time when I first heard (shortly after moving to the UK, in 1995) of people going "clubbing".

I then asked the person talking to me if that involved going out and beating up baby seals. At the time I thought it was a very witty remark on my part (if I did say so myself) but people around me were not moved by this kind Portuguese humour - I'm sure to this day some of them will still not talk to me. Talk about tough crowd.

To be honest I didn't get it either, but I did guess that it would be more of a private joke, even if the private part applies to a nation The only type of clubbing we have is what the police do to innocent bystanders (Meaning Criminals trying to get away) or the party people do every friday night, usually chavsvy people where I live.

Mind you, we don't get many seals in Portugal either, what with the warm climate and all. It really was meant as a universally bad joke.

Just like my entire collection, but I get the most funny looks from random acts, but people take advantage of that, people tried to get me to hug a sleeping Chinese guy who has few friends, I do dares, but I'm not a bully.
