Indication of cluelessness
Can’t blame her, she doesn’t have the background or experience. But still… just thought this was a bit extraordinary for someone to be in (pushed into) the career field and not have a grasp of some basic concepts. It’s a read, but…
ACUCW2 Course this week
Part 2 of CUCM administrator training has begun, and working from home this week. Let’s hope my internet connection doesn’t start acting up again!! I thought we would have the same instructor as ACUCW1, but nope. And this time it’s a 6-student all remote login class, which is good. That … Continue Reading “ACUCW2 Course this week”
TARP training every year
I have to admit though, since I posted that one TARP training I had to do years ago where ALMS was so shitty doing the video, it’s gotten better. That’s the one consolation to having to do this training every year I guess. And what, 6 years later it’s still the same person hosting the CBT. Is that… Continue Reading “TARP training every year”

Can’t get any truer than that. Washington continues to play games with peoples lives (although I see few non-federal… Continue Reading “The Fucking games they play inside the beltway”
Dinosaurs in the career field
A couple of current and former co-workers and I were shooting the breeze about work related stuff, crypto issues in particular, and we former tech controllers from the telecommunications side started comparing how crypto, key updates, etc., have changed over the years (decades!!!) since we were brand new… Continue Reading “Dinosaurs in the career field”
Putting in CBT time
Lately I’ve been finding myself spending so much time on the computer doing computer based training (CBT)… I’m spending more and more time with this guy, listening to him talk and lecture, sometimes drifting off as he just continues to babble. As it goes, I’m spending almost more… Continue Reading “Putting in CBT time”
