Nice To Be Back Home

July 31st, 2008
Tags: ,

My trip over the weekend and up through Wednesday was a busy one.  I thought that we were going to be traveling ~1100 miles, but I think it ended up being 1200-1300.  It went very well though.  I was technically on the clock for 65hrs throughout the 5 days, so I was feeling pretty tired [...]

Out For 5 Days

Tags: , ,

I’m just about all packed up and ready to get out of here in the morning.  I’ve taken Monday-Wednesday off from work next week; not for a vacation (that would be nice btw), but to give my brother a hand again in catching up his work.  We’re going to be spread from Atlanta to Chapel [...]

Tags: , , ,

After we get off work at 5pm, me and Chase are heading down to Temple, GA, about 1.5 hrs away, to get started on a job for our oldest brother.  We’ve got these security installs down pretty good.  It used to take 10-12 hours for us to completely do the wire runs and mount all of [...]

Work Parking

April 3rd, 2008
Tags: , ,

Maybe it’s just me, but I’ve always viewed parking and parking spots as a first come first serve type deal, excluding Handicap parking of course.  We have an upper lot and lower lot here at work, which is seriously no more than 100ft max difference between parking in the lower as opposed to the upper.

If you’ve caught something on your computer that constantly gives you annoying popups, advertisements, and anything else that is extremely annoying, and can’t seem to remove it with your regular software, I’d recommend giving the guys at Cyber Tech Help forum a shout.
At work we had a computer that had a trojan that Norton just [...]
