Working in IT is a double edge sword

I came to the conclusion today that working in IT can be a double edge sword. The upper management at my job really does not have a full understanding of what all my job entails. This can be a blessing when everything is working well and I can do a little techno babble and buy some extra time on a project. The flip side of that is when other departments need some extra help with something they seem to think that my department has all the time in the world to help out. It can be quite the tight rope act some times to balance that fine edge and not get overwhelmed. Sometimes I wish I was in a dark little corner where they forgot about me as long as everything ran smooth.

Lets try this again

Cheers all,

Its been about 2 years since I last messed around with my site. There is a laundry list of  reasons why family, a new job, I’m lazy you know the usual .  The one thing I discovered during the last 2 years is that I enjoy working on this site and never really gave it the attention it deserved.  Well now I think I can. I have a new job that I have been at for a little over a year and my schedule is opening up to where I can dedicate more time to the site. I’m gonna do things a little different this time. I am not a Tech Journalist and I will not pretend to be. I will post many articles about tech and my adventures in IT , but I will also be sprinkling in a heavy dose of just cool geek stuff and a little bit of fun family stories to boot. So here we are on the raggity edge and I will jump off and prowl the depths to see what I can find to bring back thats worth talking about.
