SilvrT Posted June 10, 2010 Share #1 Posted June 10, 2010 For the most part, my job is pretty slack-a$$'d .... I have the luxury of sitting around monitoring the network environment, swapping backup tapes, posting daily transactions, assisting users occasionally .... I basically can go days..sometimes weeks without even coming close to putting in a full day's work. Life is tough!! LOL That will all change in 2 weeks. I've just ordered 3 new servers running Win 2008 to replace 3 old servers, 6 new printers, and a new 1 Terrabyte backup device (actually 5 of them for swapping off-site). Looks like my slack-off time has come to an end... at least for a while ... Actually, it's a good thing coz a guy can get real bored and that seems to wear me out more than anything. The down side is, I won't have as much time to post so many snyde remarks on here LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The down side is, I won't have as much time to post so many snyde remarks on here LOL Would you like a slightly broken IT professional that's trained and educated in network engineering, programming and system administration? If so I can send you one out of work husband (out on head injuries ie slightly broken) who would be ever grateful to feel useful again and be ready to actually do that work setting up the servers and such. If so let me know, the poor guy needs work Tricia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's not a chance in h#LL I'd miss coming to Nelson ... equipment won't arrive here for a couple weeks and there's no panic to get them rolled out.

If so let me know, the poor guy needs work Tricia That's a good idea... then I could maintain my daily standard of Hardly Working! LOL Seriously tho, I hope your hubby finds some work as a guy needs his work to have a feeling of self-worth. Nothing worse than sitting around feeling helpless ... been there, done that.

LOL Seriously tho, I hope your hubby finds some work as a guy needs his work to have a feeling of self-worth. Nothing worse than sitting around feeling helpless ... been there, done that. We are looking at another year of him being out of work on medical while he STARTS the neuropsych tests needed in the coming weeks to determine the amount and kind of brain damage (semi decided to attempt to run over his work van) The lawyers said he may be out of work for 5+ yrs while the case moves along at the speed of Corporate America. He's been out of work almost 9 mons now. He's decided puttering around on a bike won't be a bad thing and he'll have something fun to do...

Seriously, its too bad youre not closer we have a real shortage of IT people around here we are always running short of people as the oil companies and such are snapping them up. Tell hubby I wish you both a quick and painless recovery!! Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAWildKat Posted June 10, 2010 Share #10 Posted June 10, 2010 We need it, what's happening to him should have never happened, He never got the proper testing under comp to diagnose the brain damage, the adjuster went so far as to try to force him back to work though his employer can't take him back til his double vision and severe headaches resolve. It's going to be a long painful battle getting him the care he needs while trying to survive :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
