I'm a Systems Administrator - i do all the "behind the scenes" stuff on servers for large networks. We're in a "freeze" right now, meaning no real changes can be done, due to year-end processing. I work at a financial corp right now. The politics here are sickening; not my words, but those of several Full-time employees. I'm a contractor here so I'm fairly insulated from it.
I actually have training in computer networking. I was going to go full tilt into doing that, then I realized, I hate sitting around. Id rather be shoveling crap, then sitting doing that!
I have to hand it to ya though man, it takes a good guy to do that kinda work!
That sounds like great news! I'm sure you'd rather be out working....Glad your doing well. I'm good, getting ready to turn 30 this week...ugh...lol Getting the usual end of the year business crap done..so boring....but needs to be done. Might be looking to pick up a new gun this week, I was thinking about a .17 HMR. They are really cheap and fun to shoot. The AR about breaks the bank nowadays at nearly .50 a shot. and you've seen the way I shoot!!! Then again, I really need a good shotgun....
I got a 17HMR and them things are extremely accurate for a factory rifle shooting factory rounds. I have tried different rounds from Remington and CCI and they all fluctuate at different distances. The best round I have found are the Hornady's. They shoot flat as all get out.
So how did your interview go? Or is that this week?
It went well. So well in fact, I got the job and started work today. I have another interview later this week, so that should be interesting. I am still confused and still unsure of what I will ultimately be doing.
I worked a full day at the day school today, in the 2-year-old classroom. Wow, am I worn out. Cute kids, but you spend more time cleaning and keeping them from getting in trouble than you do teaching anything (as if I didn't already know that would be the case), and I'm not so sure I'll help my progress towards becoming a teacher in that environment. Things are progressing with enrolling in the Masters program, apparently I qualify to teach world history.
One thing is for sure. If I am meant to be a teacher, its with the older kids.
