Crash course

So today’s been just as busy as yesterday, had to swap and re-image a hard drive, yet again, put out some fires with the network printer, put together a preliminary expense report for Gnomedex and now I get to spend some time on my latest project. We’re looking into some different options for our T1 line carrier. The line will still connect to the same ISP, but we’re now in a month-to-month situation with the phone company for the line and looking at entering another contract. There’s a sales guy who claims he can get us a Full T1 cheaper than what we’re paying now for a Fractional because of some phone company special discount plan that he has access to. I think my boss is suspicious about that, so I get to check all of the technical specs behind the contracts and see what exactly we’d be agreeing to. Yeah, I need a crash course in T1 line technology and all of the various terms that are in the contracts. Hopefully it won’t take me too long to decipher the telephone company double-talk. 🙂

Wish me luck!

(Later..) Always keep a steady supply of caffeine available for reading telephone company contracts. Good thing there’s Dr. Pepper in the pop machine!

I’m taking the laptop though, taking lots of photos, and I…

    A new gallery added to the photo section, this one a handful of my favorite pictures of my home Columbus, Ohio. Yeah it’s about time, I know. I’m sure this gallery will be growing over time, but for now, this is a good start. Follow these topics: Uncategorized

    I had turned off my webalizer stats on this site a long time ago because of the number of spam referrers I was getting, in hopes that they would go away if there were no actual on-line links that they could get a benefit from by spamming my referrer logs, and after that I pretty…
