I’m not paranoid!

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Things like this are why I am so freaking rigid about the spare laptop at work. Whenever someone has it out to be used I always demand that it gets back to me by the end of the day so I can lock it in my office. Yes my office gets locked every night when I leave. That keeps anyone from getting physical access to the network server and the spare laptop unless I am there. It also means my office doesn’t get cleaned, which is sort of a pain. 🙂

    It seems at some point in the late afternoon yesterday, Roadrunner got our home internet connection working properly again.

They probably cut off some kid “sharing” the new Springsteen CD on Kazaa or something to free up the bandwidth. *L*…

    Instead of prepping for those meetings this afternoon, I’ve spent most of it dealing with telephone technicians. Granted, the dude they sent out to take a look at this random problem we’ve been having was cool enough, and knowledgeable enough, but it was still a lot of time taken out of my day to try…

  • 2003 Server Launch

    Was interesting. Mostly just marketing hype BS, but some interesting demo’s of stuff that you can do with Server 2003 and Visual Studio .Net. The most exciting thing for me, and I’m sure all other people who do help desk work is the “Shadow Copy” feature that lets you revert back to a previous version…

    We’re in Chattanooga tonight, had stops today at the Lost Sea and the Tennessee Aquarium. We took lots of pictures, but there’s no wi-fi available from our hotel, only dial-up so uploading pics will probably wait until we get home. After all of the events of last week, it feels good to be away. Now…
