Finally...

So yesterday I gave my notice.

As of Sunday I will no longer be a tech support agent. I will once again hang up my headset, for good this time I hope. Not that I do not value my years as a Tech Support rep. It has taught me so much. Nothing more important that... NEVER, EVER under ANY circumstances, believe the customers. EVER!

Well I am not straying too far from "Tech Support" as I am moving into a duel role job, Sys. Administrator and Jr. Programmer. 70% of my time will still be dealing with people who should not be allowed outside without supervision. I just get to do it in person. This means no Mute button :(

...my precious...

oh sorry... where was I? oh yeah. So I will have to deal with them in person, but now 30% of my time will be devoted to programming and I will not be chained to my desk and the clock as much. These I will not miss.

Well I better get busy deleting all my personal files off this PC...

Good luck in your new job.. What are you going to do to fuck with them before you leave?

Congratulations on escaping the world of The Customer. Internal can be just as bad, but you have the right to beat them around the head. ;)

Congrats on the new job! And face it, if you know about computers that guarantees you a life of servitude to those of the luser category. It just takes on different forms.

Nifty. Pretty soon you'll be a BOFH. (Hell desk does not really count in this, as you have the phone between the two of you.) I can almost guarentee it.

I have this cute little script that runs if someone logs in as Administrator on my work laptop. it nukes my profile under the guise of being a "system update". I call it exit strategy.

Punk. You better email me a 1337 log note so I can post it here kind of like the Alabama lyrics you put in that other ticket.
