I can’t find my notes!
I think I may have a week to sit back and recover from all of the stuff we’ve been doing at work. Consider this the calm before the rest of the storm. We’re cutting over our corporate campus (including new gear AND IP addressing) the first weekend of June. There is [...]

I feel like a horrible blogger. I haven’t updated in a few weeks. We’ve gotten into the full swing of this transition at work, and I’ve been working like a dog. I haven’t had a day off in two weeks, and there’s no stopping in sight.
I currently work in a Foundry shop, but with our [...]

We [...]

Our company was given the go ahead to be purchased today. The next few months are going to be an interesting transition. I’m anxious about it.
Otherwise, I’m continuing with studies every day/night this week. I’m going to sit BSCI on Friday morning. Even if I don’t feel like I’m 100% ready [...]

Alex Skinger from Trainsignal contacted me last week, and asked if I would be interested in checking out the BSCI/BCMSN/CCNA training materials from them. Until this point, I’ve been relying solely on Cisco Press books and reading things on the internet. I figured I’d give the VBT a try and see how I [...]

I hate it when I cut cables wrong and don’t check them before I need to use them. I cut a T1 x-over cable for the T1 WICs I have sitting around and didn’t bother to check it. I went to use it tonight and I have the wrong 4/5 pin pair. [...]
