What Are You Doing Right Now

Busy morning. Did an ISP switch at a client this morning. Then took the wife out to breakfast. Then we went shopping for baked goods and got a Guatemalan cake for Epiphany.

Now @pchiodo is out rebuilding the back fence because the dog tore through it today.

the company "PCI Expert" is here. and I over heard him telling my Manager and the Grocery department Manager that " You need to have a managed firewall heres a few companies who offer that..."
After their meeting I talked to the grocery manager and told him "you know, there's no such thing as a managed Firewall right? a firewall is a firewall. The only thing that makes it a managed firewall is that it gets annual firmware updates. There's 2 different firewalls, John (not his real name.) , there's Abandoned, and there's not abandoned.. "
He then told me they already hired a company to support a managed firewall :man_facepalming:
Told him I would do it if he wanted and he told me he doesn't trust that I could that... Thats when I told him that I do it for my home network.. and showed him my set up (Modem>EdgeRouter Lite, Switch, UAP)..
This is my year to move forward with my career, and I'm listening to your guys advice - This Place wont be allow me to grow.

I know you keep saying "reasons", some of which are perfectly important and valid, but I do believe most of us told you to GTFO a long time ago.
Edit: I would still hire you if you were able to be in St Louis.

Gee, what a horrible thing to say to someone. I'd be leaving ASAP. They sound like horrible people.

Right?
He's also one of those "I know better than you do. so dont have this conversation with me because you're wrong"
types of people; he self a pointed himself as the guy in charge of the network and servers here, with no experience. -

They usually describe a role that appears much more difficult than the job actually is. So don't be put off by something that sounds like it may be above you.
