Virginia huh...... I am still looking for a good perm job, but being in Houston Texas... that is one hell of a commute!! [Big Grin]

Seems the only jobs I can find here in the Houston area are PC monkey for the big corperations. While these jobs are ok, none have been perm, and all tend to be boring. Most of these big corporations have well defined groups, the pc monkeys are low man on the totem pole [Razz] and are not worthy to talk to the network gods!

ohh... phones rings.... "tech support, this is Bryce how may i help you...... what sir, you cant access lotus notes.... Do you have a x drive.... yes?....hold on sir, i am connecting to your computer .... (thank god for VNC)......(ohh look at that another computer that did not get migrated to the new server!!), ok sir that should fix your problem. If you have another problem please give us a call....... AGGHHH!!

sorry.... I am better now [Smile]

Speaking of monkeys...

Life is like a tree full of monkeys
some are moving up the tree [Smile]
Some are moving down [Frown]
The monkeys at the top look down and see only smiling faces [Big Grin]
The monkeys at the bottom look up and see nothing but assholes [Roll Eyes]

I think it's wise to be looking to 'kix' one's career all the time. One should always have an answer to the question 'What would I do if I didn't have a job tommorrow?'. [Wink]
Mayhaps we could try to justify a new KiXtart BB Forum for job postings e.g. 'Need a Gig - Find a Gig'

Hmm, do you have an opening?
I'm looking for something along those lines:
  • 6 hours of slack time for various kiXtart projects that might not even be beneficial for the company
  • Personal lab environment with at least five computers/laptops/switch/...
  • Six weeks of paid vation in order to keep up with MCA
  • At least one all-expenses-paid trip to another continent of choice for a computer-related conference incl. second ticket for spouse/fiance/secretary/girl-boy-friend/dog/?

Les,

Well, to be honest, I have several computers and a KVM switch. My desktop is 1600x1024 but my laptop doesn't support it. [Frown]

My NMS box is also using the KVM but has dual video and monitors so I can keep my status screen up whilst switching the 'big' screen. [Roll Eyes]

Hey! Caught someone lurking in the server room on my spycam. Where's my pointy stick... [Big Grin]

Im at 1024x768 ... most people that use this board are at this resolution ... korg is plugged into nedstat and all the stats are viewable by anyone ... to be fair to Les - I think I started this long-line police thingy, in jest more than anything but those long-lines can be damn annoying, make the thread very unreadble ... just thank gawd Les show me how to get the printer friendly view ... use that ALL the time.

Rad,
You don't know just how close you are to the truth! I have two pairs of glasses in my shirt pocket and must constantly switch between them. [Frown] [Frown] [Eek!]
