A wonderful opportunity! If only I was not paid 2.5 million...

Joomla!, WordPress and Drupal (yeah, move it over for even more control) merely acts as the presentation platform - it is the rest of the back-end development skills-development opportunities that makes me drool!

I'm currently in a back-end Web Development career and I'm only a Junior but I love what I'm doing and I definitely want to go further with it.. Thanks for the opportunity..!!
