Excellent write-up. I love your attitude about the whole thing.

One part I found interesting and note I have not interviewed for anything in probable 10 years is the fact that they would not attempt to place you into another position being that you passed the majority of the questions with flying colors. Actually my only criticism is you used a ton of ;)'s :-0

So you are an excellent coder, scripter, and network admin. You also know all the OSI layer stuff but aren't good at "large scale" sysadmin functions? If this were my company I would try to have you placed in some other department and postiion.

Either way, thank you so much for sharing your experience!

Sometimes that does happen - interviewers can always provide feedback that they think someone should be jumped over to a different track and re-interviewed.
