I must say that your thread title "Amiga inc Hires Jamie Krueger" does not reflect the words carefully chosen for the announcement.
"announced today that it has added Jamie Krueger to its development team."

I don't see any mention of being hired for pay, which "hires" implies.

The title on Amiga.com for the announcement says "hires".

Yes, and I maintain that does not equate to "added Jamie Krueger to its development team"

Forgive me for being a bit cynical, since we've seen the ACK announcement on the same site also give impression to readers that they are "hiring".
If they were looking for help, they would have given some indication of that by now. I have no such indication.
Let's not forget those who wrote offering to help improve their internet presence.

Hmmm... I wonder if Jamie will bring over his AVD innovations over to AA2? Will he be creating developer tools for AA2 (aka OS5) perhaps??

Ah, you mean both a personal and a business mobile number. Can you have two (or more) accounts/numbers assigned to one mobile device? Don't see why not. Otherwise you're carrying two mobiles.

@Thread

The only reason I'd want "inside" Amiga these days it have a changc to ask them... "what the freak are you doing?" I wouldn't expect an answer though.

I can just imagine the conversation.....

Bill;
Yeeehaaaaw! We want to offer you a job!

Jamie;
Thanks Bill. What does the work involve?

Bill;
Yes! Pretending that you are working on OS4 for the benefit of the Judge!

Jamie;
Oh great! Does this mean that I get to sit in the next cubicle to Adam who is pretending to be manufacturing high end PPC/OS4 hardware for the benefit of the Judge?

Bill;
Sure, thing! Well actually, you'll be working from home. And, actually you won't be getting paid as such.
Also - we don't want you talking to those disloyal people at Amigaworld.net - we will be checking to make sure you don't log on there.......

Jamie;
Yes Sir! (What he should've said at this point was..... Yippie-kay-yay, motherf*^&er)

@Jamie

Third time lucky they say.
Good move. A lot of the IP Copyrights and TM belongs to AInc according to official US
registration dockets.

Hand in your time sheet promptly and honestly and you won't have any difficulties.
Money is only one component of the job, at least you have the other. Ability.

Bye Bye.. I await further news.

I know plenty of folks that have a land and mobile business line. One is for the desk, the other is because they move around a lot during the business day. Its left at work at the end of the day.

Quite seperate from their personal mobiles.

Strictly speaking paying old employees is Amino Inc.'s (formerly Amiga Inc. Washington) job, as they're the ones that never paid their debtors, and they still exist. Amiga Inc. Delaware is totally non-related; they're just a company with the same name, same owners and executives, and own everything that A.Inc. Washington used to.


Strictly speaking because their in a country were they are allowed to buy their own stock, they are in a country where IP can be changed without paying their debts first...

Totally non-related...

@all
as for work cell phone...
back when I had the full responsibility for all it-related stuff during the summer period at a company here, I made sure they supplied me with a cell phone, to which I forwarded all of my calls from my office landline phone.

I will not, give out my home cell number. not for work things. That way I can choose when I am at work by either having or not having it with me or on or not.

I don't know why but this latest PR from Amiga.inc reminds me of an anthem from Borat's show.
