Must focus..

I know what I liked most about having the office across the hall from me empty. When you’re focusing on details, say in trying to run accounting reports which are very detail intensive, and the person across the hall is having a meeting in their office, it’s very hard to tune them out. I’ll be shutting the door and turning on some music now. 🙂

Still have a lot of work to get through this week, before I can even begin to look forward to our trip to Baltimore this weekend. It’ll be nice to spend three days just being with Angela and exploring a new place. Then I’ll come back to more heavy workload, with new employees starting, more of the job search, and I’ll probably be starting work on a side-job building an Access database for one of Jim’s clients as soon as we get back.

Yeah, the more I think about it, the more I really am looking forward to the break! OK, back to reports for me!

    Looks like I’ll be doing some research on the latest batch of MS patches rolled out yesterday. Whee fun! OK so it’s not the most exciting part of my job, by far, but I’d rather read the technical details of these to see where we might be vulnerable than deal with the mess after someone…

    So towards the end of last week, I wrote out and fully explained, in great detail, how MyDoom worked and what it meant when you got “bounce” messages claiming that you sent out a virus. (Or, in fact, what it didn’t mean, since they have no point.) This is at least the third time I…

    Not that I was the one looking, but if you’re going to be surfing for a new job while at your current job, don’t go to the Bank One Careers page! On top of adding nothing to the page, the Flash animation comes complete with a soundtrack. Your co-workers, or even your boss, might stop…

    I added a yahoo group address that you can subscribe to in order to get the latest postings. I apologize about the ads, but if you’re set to receive in text only it shouldn’t be too bad. Besides they’re at the bottom, you can always ignore them. Like the RSS folks though, please be sure…
