Well, nevermind then..

I was able to run in those two conference rooms in between meetings this afternoon, only to discover that they both seem to work fine now. Figures! I’m still going to try and take advantage of the mystery network problem to put together a proposal on using a router with DHCP to give easy internet access to the conference rooms and the Chairman’s work room for folks to use when they’re in the building. Shouldn’t cost very much to add a 4 port router in the wiring closet and plug those network ports into it, making those rooms capable of getting an IP address and DNS settings automatically, while leaving the rest of the network with the same static IP’s that we’ve always had.

    Not only is it the end of the 4 day weekend, it’s also the first of the month. That leaves me with a ton of things to get caught up at work, all while trying to get back in the swing of things. I was most definitely not in the swing of things this morning….

    At least things that annoy me in the last two days….:) When you’re getting gas and the automatic turn-off of the pump turns off, and when you get back in the car you see that the gas tank isn’t even full! People working the drive through lane at Taco Bell who don’t listen very well…

  • Odds and Ends

    I was amused by the back and forth between Robert Scoble and Kevin Devin this weekend. If you follow through the comments there, and the original post at Scoble’s you’ll see that he didn’t really mean to call all IT workers f***ers, just the one’s who implemented policy, and the IT folks at Microsoft were…

  • Discussion topic – Note taking in job interview

    I’m seriously interested in hearing different views on this one. What do you think of a interviewee taking notes during a job interview? What does it say about him/her? Does it make you assume that they are very serious about investigating and remembering all the details of this job, or does it interfere with holding…
