Way to go, Byte! I'm guessing this was the interview you had yesterday up north?

[cfortune]

How is it? What'd you say you were doing? Tier3 help desk type stuff? I can't imagine what type of help desk issues get escalated up that far.... Or is it systems administration?

[Zundfolge]

Well your post count here may suffer ... but I bet you'll find yourself filling out more 4473s :D

And eating regularly.

Congrats!

With any luck of course... good stress relief, my buddy had to quit at Regis' IT dept. because apparently the new tech savvy youth is really not so hot on windows XP...

Congrats Byte! Your post count may suffer here, at least we know what's going on with you from time to time- unlike the ban where we asked several times "How is Byte doing these days?"

[rondog]

Congrats on the new gig!

[KevDen2005]

Congrats and good luck.

Eating is good.

I cant think of anything nice to say? But it reminds me of the smart phone app comercial [ROFL1]

[Byte Stryke]

well it would seem one of our own also works there.

considering the paranoia and liberalism in the world today I DO NOT Discuss Politics, religion, gender, orientation or GUNS at work.
This person seemed a bit upset I didn't want to chummy at work with gun forum people.


I do not want people at work Knowing I have guns, what I Do at home is in no way shape or form to be brought to work.
EVERYTHING stays at home.

what's your opinion on this?

[Ridge]

You didn't have to blow me off like that! [Rant1]

[theGinsue]

Congrats on the job Byte.

Does this mean that when you do get onto the site you won't be as snarky as you've been? Just askin.


Hopefully a vendor is buying haha... Our NetApp rep always offers to buy rounds of shots when he takes us to lunch.

Geesh. We've spent a LOT of money on NetApp equipment and our rep hasn't even offered us cheap advertising trinkets.

I know the feeling. Just to get to take my phone to the door of the building I work in (it can't go further than that) I can't have one with a camera in it. Do any of you know how hard it is to find a non-Jitterbug style phone without a camera? Practically impossible.

Oh damn man. That struck close to home - I'm an IT (Sys Admin) too. Either that or I'm a fetish porn actor with an upcoming audition for a movie including a dwarf, a chimpanzee, and a trapeze. You decide which seems more probable.

This has only happened twice. I get the impression the dude likes to drink and just doesn't want to do one alone. I always decline though, I don't need to ever drink around the people I work with.

We have a lot of contact with vendors due to being allowed to go to events like VMUGs (VMWare Users Group, IT roadshow, etc). So people are usually calling our desk phones and not upper management to get POCs in the door and what not.

NetSource is taking me to the UFC fight on Saturday since we allowed them to come in for a Veeam demo on Friday. I got to go to Del Frisco's to listen to Soft Choice talk about ESXi 5 last week (been there a few times, can't say I'd ever go on my own $ haha). Its a pretty sweet gig other than all the phone calls you start getting. Some reps will call you almost daily even after you've told them you're not interested in their product.
