This is my desk currently. Out of space and still have 4 more laptops to work on. At least give me some faking proper I.T. space for all the physical hardware.

I could not work like that.

You now know how i feel....

I am having a mini heart attack from the cables being strewn everywhere. Best i can do though since I have limited range with my extension cords and even less space to properly have stuff situated in an organized area. I mean, at least give me another damn switch so I can plug directly into our network with a temp I.P. instead of having to run 50ft patch cables to different open cubicles to plug into the outlets....

I should take a picture of our imaging bench. I swear every month I am not going to untangle the ******* spaghetti monster of wires, but I end up doing it cause it drives me nuts.

My coworkers are jerks.

Don't be, it's a lot of $. Had to buy kiddo some ear protection and pay for overnight shipping so that's $70+ just with that. Tickets are $59+ tax each, parking will probably be $20 and there's still food costs.

BUT we are determined to get out to more events with the kiddo. We'll be going to ACL on Friday the 30th with him.

Projects currently;

Monitor "psu" on desktop
Set up 2 kiosks with total control over browser (kioware software)
Update 17 laptops to work with new AP
Configure AP to route properly with SAP program
Track 2 RF guns sent out for repairs
Create mapped drive credentials for 3 users

It's noon on a Friday... My morale for the weekend is already shot. May be stuck here late tonight fixing stuff. Doesn't help that the I.T. Director is still here and sees my cluster mess of a desk and the issues we are facing currently.

Since the IT director is there and I am sure he would love to hear a cheap, solid way of boosting productivity in the I.T. dept.... ask him to tell the cfo to piss off and buy the software and use it.

Added another laptop to my desk. At least it's just a Dell PS unit so it's tinier....

It took us about 2 years working with them, but our system works really, really well. We have a few small hiccups now and then but over all the feedback has been positive.
