Last Day Before Vacation
On my last work day before a week off I had to tie up all loose ends at work. It was tough but i think i handed everything off ok. After work M and I meet up with Luke and some other people for a few drinks at Windfall.
Almost All Mac, Well Sometimes…
For over a year I have opted into a “bring your own equipment” pilot with my company. It basically allows me to use a Mac at work. There has been a great community helping with how too’s, what apps to use to replicate Windows apps, etc. For the bulk of that time I have generally [...]
The Not So Big Hurricane
Saturday M and I were planning on visiting a judge we are interested in being the officiant for our wedding. I was very concerned about the weather based off of what I was reading about the hurricane and the travel advisories. M was less concerned but I was worried that if we woke up Saturday [...]
Day Off
After working every night from Friday to Tuesday and parts of the day over last weekend I decided mid week to take a day off. Little did I know at the time that a major hurricane was supposed to be coming to the east coast. Honest, it wasn’t a master plan of mine or anything. [...]
Naming Schemes
I am in the technology field. I think about stuff that not many other people might. Take for example naming schemes for your computers. Until recently most people only had one or two at home and probably had generic names for their stuff. I have worked in environments with hundreds of servers and other devices. [...]
Trying Outlook 2011
Busy day at work today. I took a call at 8AM at home and then ran to the office after that. Full day of calls later I am pretty tired. I did eak out some time to try using Apple Mail with exchange. I couldn’t really do it well before getting migrated to Exchange 2007. [...]
Monday 8-8-2011
I worked from home today. It was hot out and I was glad not to have to go outside very much. I had calls almost all day and then I worked till after 7PM catching up on mail. M brought home swordfish to grill. We ended up eating some really good cheese and some bread [...]
RIP Partsearch
Today seems like the last day of Partsearch Technologies. It looks like the staff has been let go and the company is going out of business. It is still kind of odd that I found myself wanting to write about it. After all I haven't worked there since February 2007. In any event I have [...]
A Long Wednesday
Today was a very long day for me. It isn't that I don't do 11 hour work days. I get my fair share every once in a while. It was the fact that I had to get up and have a conference call at 7AM that was killing me. I was surprised that after my [...]
Sick Week
This week I was sick for most of the week. I took Tuesday off just to have a longer weekend, but it ended up being just a day I was sick inside! I wasn’t too happy about that. I worked from home Wednesday but felt like crap most of the day. I even napped in [...]
