Operation n

As someone keeps saying at work, it’s all about perceptions. Perceptions you are actually doing work… etc
This security columnist seems to think there’s a few egos about. I don’t about egos but there are definitely some characters about.

IMHO Hackers are perceived on the whole in a slightly negative light. A bit awkward, a bit unfriendly and bit lacking in the social skills department. For some people that may be the case. And what the columnist says in his article is for the most part fairly accurate. But hopefully that is changing, you can’t hide away from the social accept. And I am not referring to online social networks. If you want to get anywhere in life, business, work, you have to deal with people. It is noted that a lot of jobs have to deal with clients and customers (well the big jobs anyways). Unless you are absolute l33t in programming and hacking (which I don’t profess to be, coz i iz a n00b!), you are going to have to sellout a tad and try (as someone once called it…) pimping your brain. Some social skills are needed and plus eventually you can do social engineering too, haha!
