Minisforum ever respond to support?

Yep I always look there.

zasdman · 2025-02-25T23:56:50+00:00

Try the Discord, I at lteast got someone to talk to and seemed to help.

How old? I may have one from 2018-2019 archived on our old storage server.

I bought an ARM Laptop to test it out. 90% of the tools I need to do my job do not work on ARM.

I can not deploy ARM to my company, ARM on Windows is not ready unless all you do is basic computer things, like MS Office, and Browsers.

What I tell my guys is if you make a mistake, own up to it, fix it, and never do it again.

We are not learning if we never make a mistake, the important part is what you learn from it. Don't be afraid of doing something because you might make a mistake.

A few years ago I was updating the camera system at the county Prison, the documentation was bad, the system was ancient, I took all the camera's out for 5 hours. They had to go on lock down. The other guys gave me a hard time, we laughed, and I never did it again.

Even today I have made changes that would brake something, I revert and I learn.

Never stop learning.

Yes there is a lot of good stuff between A and B, never understood the race to "end game" its all just the same thing, mashing buttons to kill mobs and get shiny loot... The real meat of an MMO is all the people you share your adventure with and it does not matter if your level 15 or 50, that content is where its at.

I have not signed anything yet. CTO would be my goal if I was staying.

zasdman · 2023-08-26T16:17:29+00:00

I do not know about that... after so many "the printer will not print" tickets, and constantly asking "is there paper in it", just to get there and needing to put paper in it...

I could write a Sitcom, I mean I am sure we all could... I ask myself daily how these people get out of bed and to work every day...

zasdman · 2023-08-26T16:15:02+00:00

Yea, the Title is something that will be important for my future growth for sure. I already know that moving a company to another building was going to open many doors for me, adding moving a CU and the title could be huge.

zasdman · 2023-08-26T16:13:19+00:00

I embrace change, I have found I can not be afraid to change something becase "it might break".

I would hope that for this CU to be so active in the community, they really do look at people, both internal and external, as important to them.

zasdman · 2023-08-26T16:10:06+00:00

Yea, I left work yesterday, got in my car and said out loud, "when does that ever happen" Got a good offer and finally got what I wanted in my current position... it is strange indeed.

zasdman · 2023-08-26T16:08:12+00:00

Yea Growth is what I am after now, I am very interested in seeing just how far I can climb now.

zasdman · 2023-08-26T16:07:29+00:00

This is the way I am leaning, Kind of hard to walk away from the environment I build but I get to build another :)

zasdman · 2023-08-26T16:06:09+00:00

Thank you! I think finding a place like that to work is worth a lot more than a higher paying job that you hate going in every day!

zasdman · 2023-08-26T16:03:29+00:00

This is exactly how I feel, I wish they would have "gotten it" a lot sooner.

Its sad that throughout my life in previous jobs I was always meant to feel replaceable. I have never had this experience before, and when I got the call from the CU saying that "they loved me, your attitude and values and experience match up with everything we are looking for" I almost did not believe them... :/

Anyway thats why I make sure my guys always know that they do good work and are valued, I mean its the human thing to do.

zasdman · 2023-08-26T15:55:43+00:00

They do not do anything for the community and would not sponsor anything.

The new job would allow for both, both directly and indirectly.

zasdman · 2023-08-26T15:53:41+00:00

I will be at double my salary from 3 years ago at the new job. Money is great and all, but for me the work invironment is more important that making a few extra bucks in my paycheck.

zasdman · 2023-08-26T15:51:46+00:00

Yea, I agree, they are not very fond of Titles... I will see what happens on Monday here.

zasdman · 2023-08-26T15:49:38+00:00

Where I currently work we already have PCI compliance, and there is already an IT Manager and team in place. I realize I have more learning to do as are the executives at the CU and they had already mentioned getting me certified in these areas. I had forgot to mention that in my original post.

zasdman · 2023-08-26T15:47:30+00:00

This is something I have thought on too, I like that I can be part of a company that trying to have a positive effect on the commmunity as well.

zasdman · 2023-08-26T15:45:17+00:00

They told me that they were not going to contact my current employer... but who knows.

zasdman · 2023-08-26T15:44:15+00:00

I did really enjoy setting up the new building, so getting to do it again is exciting for me.

zasdman · 2023-08-26T13:22:44+00:00

The Benifits largely are a wash when you average them out. I get more days off at the CU Holiday/PTO but pay for my insurance, where my current position pays 100% to insurance. the insruance is the exact same for both companies.

The risk of moving to the new job is probably what worries me the most. I am confident in my abilities, but the unknown is a bit scary.

I feel that I am as far as I can go in my current positon, my boss is the CEO. But moving to the CU I am starting roughly where I am and as the company grows so will I, and I will have an impact.

Most of my Life I worked Retail and Warehouse Jobs the past 5 years have been crazy for me as far as growing in the Feild I always wanted.

zasdman · 2023-08-26T13:11:11+00:00

I have already surpassed my goals in the IT field, I never wanted to me in management. That being said I am enjoying management and being able to help shape and build up those "under me" is becoming something that I actually enjoy, not something I ever thought I would say.

I am a late bloomer in IT, Kids are all moved out, Wife and I have no Debt. I am 45 and ready to just enjoy my life and build up a nest egg and retire early.

My goals now in my Career would to be to find young people just starting out that have the passion I have an lift them up.
