Work the next couple days

[BLUEVOODU]

Work is going to be killer the next few days due to projects.  I'm asking all of you to help keep the reins for a few days and keep up the conversations and help create topics.  Thank you in advance for all that help.


@Helskyth I'm almost done checking your review :-)

Projects......

I went to work Tuesday morning at 7 am and got home at 3:00 PM Wednesday afternoon. I went back this morning as soon as I got up (around 8:00am) and finally finished around 6pm. The representative from HP left me a note that most of my interfaces didn't work because I had incorrect IP addresses programmed. I argued with HP and Oracle for hours over this and finally went to the MDF after realizing that every machine was visible on the network but what I had programmed as the default gateway wasn't reachable. HP moved a switch and the gateway to another set of racks but didn't bother to reconnect the switch to the gateway.

Between two on site HP technicians and a team of programmers from Oracle, none thought to check if they had all the cables plugged in. One cable, wrecked my four day weekend.

I'm calling your bluff. I'm positive that you've been working on the same work projects for 10 years now. My guess is that you are repeatedly installing Windows 10 on the same machine over and over and then reverting back to XP.

@mastermario lol. You're cute. You said that before lol. I don't work on those platforms anymore. Totally different job function.   That one about killed me with stress and environment.

I'm 3 positions away from that one. Ive been running our Ibm server platform the last 6 years. Was over 32  North American, Brazil, France, and other plant locations.  Those plants are migrating off my platform right now so I'm. Currently learning an entire new platform while leading the old platform. I'm currently grouping up with the administrators of that system - have been the last year.  The new platform covers China, India, Korea, Germany,  Poland, Czech Republic,  and tons more countries.

It's a lot right now.  I never have a lack of stuff to do In life or work lol.

@Kinikko  hahaha    thanks for that.  I understand the busy...  ridiculous lately.

@targetrasp that's what one of my old positions was like. At least twice 26 hours straight. Ew .... One cable.  You know media converters (ethernet to fiber)..  In the old position I worked, I found one above the ceiling.  I couldn't figure out why communications to one of the labs were dropping randomly. One of those failed and it was above the ceiling!!
Lol. I'd love to hear some of your other stories.

My city is so low tech when I was in college here for Computer Science my advisor said staying in town was insane. Tech jobs here were 6 week certificate course type of jobs.

It's changed a little but not much. There's a huge demand for digital marketing / social media managers but analysis, design, architecture, is all farmed out from bigger cities. There's no shortage of "web designers" (Wix designers) though, and somehow they're getting tons of work!?

I honestly can't tell you how much I've learned just watching others screw up. I don't have a tech job, I work for a management company that owns hotels and invests in hospitality based properties. I've turned into their tech department, but it's not my full time gig! There's still not enough money in technology.
