End and beginning.

So i left my new job of 2 weeks today, to go back to my previous job. They wanted me back, and i wanted to go back.

The new job was not right, it was setup for a "Desktop Tech", when in reality, i'm a network Administrator. Also, this was a HUGE organization, so segmented it would make you PUKE. We had at least 5 meetings per week for various things, ranging from 1 hour to 2 hours. The real killer was this morning when i found out that their backups were outsourced, so if you needed to recover something, you had to pay and schedule it with the company that ran it. The Routers and firewalls were outsourced, apparently the Network Admin could not handle this in between his phone call sessions.

I guess that was the death of it right there, i knew everything the network admin did, but i could not tell him how to do it, or even help. My job was "Images" and desktops, plus supporting the local 75 users. Soo boring, and beneath what i CAN do.

Long story short, i'm back where i belong, with a more focused mission now. I'm glad about it. Although i would like some more $$$, we will work on that later.

Peace...
