It’s strange to ‘grow up’ in my IT skills at one location for 9 years and then end up in a place where things are pretty different. There’s much less reliance on Windows servers, little to no Outlook use (yes!), and I actually get to work on web development projects. It’s bizarre to walk through the hallways and see so many Macs amongst the Windows machines. It’ll be interesting to get my feet wet supporting the Mac side of the force.

There’s a lot of *nix server management that’s being done w/ vi. I need to get much more comfortable w/ this editor. It’s pretty awkward to use right now. Though, I do admire it’s power. I need to make myself a command ref. I can stick to the side of my monitor…

ssuajobIt sounds like many of the IT responsibilities I had in the past – w/ the added focus of web development. I’ve been wanting to get into the development side of things for a long time now. It’s exciting to think that this could be my ‘in’.

If you’re the praying type. Please pray for 1) an interview opportunity, and 2) that I’d accurately represent what I bring to the table in that interview.

Laptop Pajamas?

Wow… how sad is it that even before I was able to blog this, my laptop was bagged twice more during my absence.

Something must be done to the prankster’s laptop. I can’t figure out how to one-up her…

Suggestions?
