Last day

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Yup, today’s the last day of work. I start my new job on Monday morning.

I’m currently working in an office with all my belongings packed up, with bare walls and bare desk space. The whole “moving out” look, definitely. There’s nothing like the feeling of killing off your own voice mailbox, your own email accounts, etc. It’s a bit surreal.

So the big question now is, if I’m not a one-man IT Department, what the heck am I gonna call this tech blog? Perhaps we’ll have a re-naming contest, and then a logo design contest once we have a new name. The possibilities are endless!

Just give me some time to settle into a new routine and then I’ll put some thought into it.

(BTW, when I typed the title of this entry, I was tempted to make it “Last Day, Capricorn 19, prepare to renew.” Major geek points to anyone who gets the reference, in-exact as it is.)

Update: Leave it to my readers to not only know the reference, but one of them, Gary, even found a WAV file of it. Which of course only goes to show how completely I mangled the actual reference!

    Just wanted to thank Kevin, Jevon, Lloyd and Andy for their thoughts concerning mail servers and what not. Lots of different options that are going to have to be explained to the powers that be. Of course that’s assuming I ever get a handle on all of the different options! Of course the more confusing…

    Going to be in full investigation mode today. One of the PC’s here at work, when visiting some website, got 3 different Symantec warnings about Trojan.Trunlow: The virus warnings said “Access Denied” But at the same time stamp, Symantec was shutdown, and some of the password stealer .exe’s listed on that page showed up in…
