W-O-W!!!
It's been awhile! Fortunately I do have an excuse! I'm buried up to my EYEBALLS at work! But let me catch you up first -
See all those posts below? Well, forget about em. Those posts dealt with a period in my life that I'd rather forget. Let's just say it involved getting laid off, getting hired in a call center (barf) with a 50% pay cut and treating grown adults like they were 5.
Times are different now. The company that laid me off called me one day back in April of 2004 asking if I would consider coming back! Before jumping for joy, and acting like an idiot, I calmly told the HR team that I would consider it under two conditions. 1) A raise in pay from my previous salary and 2) All of my sceniority including my vestedness reinstated.
Guess what - They did it!! I started back at the office on May 1st, 2004. Okay, let the jumping around and acting like an idiot commence. And I've never looked back!
I'm now back at my beloved company and yes I LOVE IT HERE! Granted I'm completely buried with no hope of ever seeing the light of day.
Take yesterday- Saturday, March 12th, 2005: I got up at 4:00am and got ready. We had a cut to perform this weekend. Task at hand, migrate 300 server connections to your new 10 gig backbone. Well, without going into a ton of boring detail, I ended up walking out of the office at 1:30am on SUNDAY!
Grueling work but for some sick reason, I LOVE IT!
Well, gonna get my day going.
Peace-
