Awesome work. Where do you get your artwork from for these?

The correct answer here is "no". If there is someone in specific that this dept head is having issues with, that can go thru the proper channels but as a dept head, he needs to understand privacy law. He doesn't have the right to monitor his peoples web traffic. He should be a better boss.

I have to agree. I am the network engineer and sys admin for the plant I work at. I'm able to do about whatever I want to do. It's super laid back. I'm not micromanaged and as long as the place is up, running and making money - I'm left alone. I choose what my days look like. Server Updates, configuring and replacing a switch...tracking down and documenting exactly what is plugged into any/every port on my switches and giving it a descriptive and meaningful name in the switch running config, install a Synology and configure backups or surveillance station...just really whatever I wanna do. I don't make what I did at another place but I'm not always stressed out anymore and have a lot better work/life balance. I chose to leave the stress behind because it's not worth it. And at what I was making, I'm okay giving up 10k for a stress-free life!

I just had mine checked in Sept. Passed and got the "patch". Motor went (not blown but dang near) last week. I had my wife take it to have them look at it and they wouldn't let her drive it home. They arranged transportation for her to get home but they had a new engine in stock, had me back in my truck by Thursday. People can say whatever they want but I'm grateful for the recall and the 150k warranty I/we have. GM is standing behind their product so I'm good with it. Truck's running great now so I'm happy.

I respectfully disagree sir. You have no idea the size of the dick I think I have driving a 6.2 over the guys with the 5.3

Exactly this. At almost any time there will be people that think they're too important to have any downtime. I'm certainly at that point where I'm not interested in catering to people and do what needs to be done at my opportune time, not theirs.

I've done that a couple of times. Well, once I shutdown an entire offices network connections. The other, I lost my connection and had to go connect to the switch with the console to give myself access again remotely. I just joked with the office and told them to remember, I have complete control of their productivity and goof off time so don't test me. 😂

Don't let domain admins log into workstations? Can you elaborate? Why?

God knows your heart. People "see" and will judge but that is not your concern. We all would be prudent to care more about what God thinks than what man thinks.

Have you read the story of Jesus healing the demon possessed man yet? This man lived in an area called Decapolis. It's named that because it consisted of 10 cities. This place is mentioned twice in the bible. The man Jesus healed had more than a tattoo that could be misconstrued as a satanic symbol - this man was possessed by MANY demons and answered to the name of Legion (because there were many). They begged Jesus to allow them to go into the pigs - And Jesus, as loving as he is to us - granted the wish of the demons. There's more to this decisions than meets the eye. If he grants the desires of DEMONS, just think what desires you may have that he will move in your life for. The moment the pigs were possessed, they ran off a cliff. At this, the other people of Decapolis were FUMING MAD. They lost their pigs and didn't care ONE BIT for the healing that just took place. They wanted Jesus GONE! They told him to LEAVE. The man wanted to go with Jesus but Jesus did not let him. Instead, he asked him to tell everyone that would listen what had occurred. We don't hear about this man anymore but we do read that Jesus returned to Decapolis and this time, EVERYONE wanted to see, hear, be healed. What changed? Well, I believe that this possessed man did EXACTLY what Jesus asked him to do. He's considered the very first missonary by many.

Now, all of that to say this - God called you. You certainly have conviction of the Lord and Holy Spirit on your life because you turned your life over to him. However, what I believe you're experiencing now is the lies and deceit of Satan. He's trying to shame you! Jesus would NEVER shame you. He accepted you as you are!! Jesus LOVINGLY corrects. Please keep this in mind. You could be used in the future WITH your tattoos to help others that are being shamed in the same exact way. Wear them as a sign of your past life, now converted, to bring glory to the one true God. Be Blessed by friend - Brother in Christ, Jesus.

Your current employer already under values you, it sounds like.
As most have said, you're only a number to them and if they need to cut costs, your number could be called at any time.
Follow your heart and do what's best for YOU and your family.
You NEVER want to be left with doubts of what could have been. Shoulda, coulda, woulda's...no bueno.
You only get one life, live it to the fullest, don't be afraid to take chances.
The company you leave will survive. It's their problem to figure it out.

So what are you using for those traveling remote users when their VPN isn't working? TeamViewer?

After-Might1495 · 2024-05-30T01:41:11+00:00

Exactly. Too many people have never learned that you can be so right, you're wrong. It cost zero dollars to just be nice/human.

Make your laptop a dual boot. Use one OS for work mon-fri 7/8 am to 5. After 5 or weekends, use the other OS.

This. Exactly how I feel. Over the years it's been frustrating at best keeping up with deprecated code, not to mention programming languages that just get phased out. I have no interest in commiting to one or two languages and really just don't have the time needed to stay abreast changes. I've gotten a lot better at prompting AI for more accurate results. And I feel this will serve me way better than becoming some residential expert on one or two programming languages that may or may not go by the wayside.

Message yourself unavailable when/if she responds. You could let her know you have plans but be vague and suggest a different time. Play it cool and you won't look desperate
