It got better

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

The migraine I worked up to all day at work kept me from running out to get the wireless card for the laptop, so I haven’t gotten that setup at all yet. I tried to just add the access point to the existing network but I’m having a problem with that. I didn’t think it would require a crossover cable, because it has a WAN port, but maybe it does?

On the other hand, my Life of a One-Mad IT Department T-shirt came in! Seems like a pretty good quality T-shirt, the logo is going to crack, we’re pretty convinced of that, but I’m hoping it will give it that sort of homey/worn look without getting unreadable. I think that’s a good possibility. I imagine it looks pretty good on the other products as well. I’m happy with it!

    Jenn Steele, who writes a blog dedicated to discussing how to manage the IT department called Leading Geeks, has an interesting post today, On Attitude. I find that geeks easily fall into sub-optimal attitudes, which usually fall into two categories. The first is what I call the “stupid user” category, where they develop the attitude…

    More reading on using networking as part of your job search. I’ve been reading a book about networking and going through all the self-awareness practices myself lately, so this is timely stuff. (BTW, another great use for OneNote, keeping all my notes and exercises on networking and self-awareness together in one section of the program..)…

    I have some more “notes” on Outlook 2003, but before I post them I’m considering the possibility of giving those Office Beta Notes a blog of their own. What, another blog? Isn’t 2 enough? Well yes, but this one would only be temporary, until Nov. 30 when the beta period ends, and it would then…
