Sweet… I am liking the rich text editor. So, today was a nice day. Hope and I went out at like 11:00 PM last night and got my car window pushed up so I don’t have to get wet when I drive. So this morning on the way to work was better than the day before. I worked at my cube today. Stole my desktop from the war room and set it up so I’d have a machine while I re-imaged the laptop. I could handle it, until Word wouldn’t even open. I figured at this point the laptop had “given up the ghost” and needed to be ghosted (pun intended for geeks only). I worked tickets all day and got several closed. I am finally getting into the swing of things with this new position. I think tomorrow I will try and up how many tickets I assign to myself and just dive hard into research on problems. Stretch myself, I guess you’d say.

Well, that’s about it folks. Another day at work tomorrow… Wednesday, work week is half over!

Later,
John Boy

Well, I started a new job today. Now, all you loyal fans who read don’t freak out… I didn’t leave Ashland. God once again provided something great and awesome. I was moved from the “War Room” to Ashland Tier 3 Support. For those who are not techie oriented on the job titles… You know when you call a help desk and you escalate your issue as high as it can go? Well, I am one of those people you’d talk to. We handle a lot of different issues and many of the tough ones that require some research and thought to get it resolved. Pretty cool if you ask me, I am really excited and feel really blessed to be there.

So today was my first day, I got moved all over the place… Then once I got settled in at my temporary desk I worked like a mad man till lunch. Ate lunch, then worked like a mad man some more until the end of the day. All in all I got a good bit accomplished.

Well, off to do some stuff around the house.

Thank you,
Management.
