Well, after a little bit over a month, I was offered a new job!!! I'll be working in disaster recovery for a pretty large company, and I get to work in team environment. I'm absolutely exited, and unfortunately words/emoticons cant describe my joy. Its been a rough 18 months or so personally and career-wise, and I'm just glad I'm finally getting out. AND, I'm moving up the career ladder at the same time :D Thanks to all for your help (you know who you are).

    I think that would make, "Stop sucking at Halo" the next item on your list. No more excuses! ;)

    Congratulations!

    Now for that trip to Mn...

    See what can happen when you stop wearing big cowboy hats and hot dogs on your head? :P

    Seriously though, it was probably the added confidence that new S&W gave you that nailed the interview. icon_cool.gif

    Great news, big congrats to you! icon_thumright.gif

    had to log in and give a report of my first 1.5 days:

    so first couple days have been crazy. Im starting to get the hang of how things work around here. Its definitely a fast paces environment. Im looking forward to expanding my job responsibilities in the coming weeks. I just hope im meeting their expectations.

    thats all for now, I have to get back to the grind icon_cool.gif

    That's what you call a report? Oh well, I guess that would seem like a lot of work after playing video games 10 hours a day for a month ;)

    yea well since its only day 2 (or 3 now), I'm weary to start messing around on the internet, as im sure they have something for me to do every second of the day. :)

    PS: Thanks for the comments mark. The S&W Helped a little icon_wink.gif

    I always limit my internet usage to sites by a large amount until I've gotten a feel for their management style. Pressing "view posts since last visit" 500 times looks bad on an internet filter report.

    My excuse for techexams if they ever asked was always that it was a great resource to look up ideas for problems.

    okay so its been a month, and I still like it; and they still like me. So this is a good thing :)

    Ive been pulling night shift covering the regular night guy who is on vacation for two weeks. It wasnt as bad as I thought, but now I have to get back to working mornings. Shouldn't be too bad. Its unfortunate that im not using the MCSA/MCSE material as I would like to, but it also has opened Cisco opportunities that Im seriously considering. I hate not being able to work more on the network portion of my job. Once I get my core responsibilities down, I will start to branch out so I can be more of a 'jack of all trades' kinda guy.

    happy thanksgiving everyone!
