tachman Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 Yep, doing it now, on a break though.Haven't been around for awhile, since my previous job didn't allow this, but now I got a new job a few weeks ago, and to be quite honest, I'm busy pretty much all day with pretty challenging work, can't complain about that at all.What have you all been up to? What did I miss here in rants and raves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 where'd you finally find a new job? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tachman Posted August 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 At a small(ish) managed services firm in Avon, no more driving to brooklyn everyday, and I get to twaddle servers!! Feels good to actually do a job with stuff I've learned in college.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 sounds more like what you were looking forI on the other hand am glad to be working at a place where I don't use 98% of what I learned in college. But lets be honest, I wasn't a good student and only went to party and get a degree so I could get a job to make bank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jblosser Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 Ah, imaging servers. Such fun.- log into VCenter- find template you want (Linux, Windows, what version, etc...)- right click, "deploy from template"10 minutes later, new server up and running.Not exactly "fun", but pretty damn easy. Just don't tell anyone or they'll stop paying us the big bucks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyler524 Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 Highly detailed model, well over 5,000 parts and some are very detailed. Something like close to 8,000 bodies in the model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

that dude Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 On a Saturday? Anything over 8 is time and a half. So if i were to work 9 hours all week in one day, that ninth hr is ot. Says time and a half. Sundays and holidays double time. Shift pay is an extra 2.00 an hr. Foremans scale is an extra 2.00 for the first 7 guys, then a 1.50 on top if that for every extra 5.

Sounds like a good deal.yea its not bad..reason why they did the shift pay cause no one wants to work 2nd or 3rd shift. just a little incentive. the contractors cannot make you work those shifts as well. we can refuse. still have never gotten double time!

Foremans scale is an extra 2.00 for the first 7 guys, then a 1.50 on top if that for every extra 5.I liked when I was on call with my old job. If I got called in, it was an automatic 4 hours, the time I was there was time and a half, and sunday or holidays double time. I often dreaded going in when called in, but loved it when I'd get the paycheck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
