Diary of a Network Geek

Career Magic?

Went to a second interview with J. at WIZARD. He still didn't have anything, and the person he was going to have me talk to told him that she'd had "no movement" on the position that he was going to present to me. *Sigh* Oh, well, maybe next time.

Start of a Long Trail

Well, one of the several places I sent my resume to has called back. We'll call them GeoTech Global for now, but I'll reveal their name should I go to work for them. For now, I'll refer to the manager I interviewed with as H., again with the same caveat.

Why a blog?

Well, now that I've finally set up my news and updates page, namely Diary of a Network Geek, I'm going to start adding to it. My dear, sweet girlfriend, Anne, suggested that I chronicle my quest for a new job. I've decided that I like that suggestion, so I'm going to start with a little background.

Career Update

After a power outage yesterday, the network is coming up slowly, but surely. Nothing like a bout with HL&P to liven up a "quiet" job! Incidentally, I'm typing this news bulletin on my new folding Palm keyboard. It takes a little getting used to, since it's so small, but it really kicks butt for data entry. The whole contraption folds down to be about the size of my Palm IIIx and unfolds to roughly the size of an older laptop keyboard. The "feel" is more modern, but it sure does remind me of all the time I spent on the road typing up e-mail.
