Looks like they have moved your post to the jobs section, Henry.
That's the trouble when people have OCD and want to keep sweeping up their forum smile

I do think it's better placed in CG & S but can see why you might move it to somewhere entitled Jobs !

Not my area (geographically or professionally) but if it were, that is exactly the type of advert I would want to respond to. Nice work.
Thanks for that, very kind of you to say.

(btw - Henry can you assist me in getting a master reset code for a QVIS DVR - I'm led to believe there is a 24 hour master reset code available based upon the date shown on screen, we've pulled the DVR out and installed a new one - it would be good to get the old working again.It was originally bought from a crowd in Scarborough that don't answer the phone)
Unfortunately we don't deal with QVIS. You would need to speak to someone who does. I suspect they may require you to send the DVR back to them to re-set passwords. Having a master code somewhat negates the point of it being password protected in the first place !

From a quick Google search it looks like there is a reset code which is available.

I'm looking for something with an intimidate start to fill in an employment gap. I'm waiting on enhanced vetting for my new job. Potential start date is 12th October; could be earlier, could be later, but is flexible.

I have most of the skills you're looking for, for example I've built several of my own computers over the years. You'd have to accommodate for the month, as I live in Scotland.

If you're interested, drop me a PM

Dear Mr Methylated Spirit.

Thank you for your recent response to our vacancy.

Unfortunately we were trying to avoid angry or intimidating candidates.

The post is full time, it could even see the successful candidate running the joint in a few years time. It's a good opportunity for someone.

Whilst I consider myself a generous employer I hadn't considered opening up my house and allowing someone to live with us. Having had a quick ring around other employers appear to share the same view although Richard Branson said he does occasionally open his holiday home up to senior staff as a reward. Our beach hut in Frinton-on-Sea would be too far to commute from. As you have pointed out Scotland to essentially London is also out of the question.

Finally in the vacancy announcement we were quite specific about the method of contact. Nothing sinister, it just allows us to evaluate you and your telephone manner from a customer's perspective. We appreciate you might be nervous and will of course take that into account but it's a starting point.

Thank you very much for taking the time to contact us but unfortunately on this occasion we wouldn't be able to offer you an interview.

Kind regards and good luck in your new job starting October.

Henry

Have you tried the master code 888888 ? I was told there was no reset codes and that 888888 is programmed into every unit and can't be changed. However they seem to change their DVR's every week so who knows, every time I order one I get something different.

I run an eCommerce business and an electrical contractors that do CCTV! I'd be ideal for this role but too far away and I don't want a job frown

Good luck finding someone, sounds like a great opportunity.
Thanks for that. I hope it is a good opportunity for someone. Certainly a bit different. We aren't your typical employer !

yes: we tried all of those 111111,888888,admin,blank,the owners birthday,the code he uses for the alarm system - we tried everything anyone could think of!

If you are ordering these you might inquire from your supplier your supplier - I can't get anyone who stocks these to give me an answer unless it was bought from them - they all seem to know that there is a master code that can be generated based upon the date showing on the CCTV footage - whether they also requires the serial number of the box as well I don't know - as soon as I have to say - 'no it wasn't bought from you', they all say 'sorry sir I can't help you'.
I'm surprised someone hasn't offered to do it for a fee if you send it to them.
