Barry, of course you stay and wait for the second guy. Then leave and blame it on the first guy!
Dave,
More relevant now then before. My ideal work environment has more to do with the company then the work. I really enjoy the support side of IT and not so much the sales side. Doing designs and then not getting to implement them was frustrating to me. I really enjoy running a help desk but the company I work for does not value IT and it makes it really hard to get satisfaction from ones work when it isn’t valued.
IT is not treated as a business partner and brought into the solution process where I work from the start. Instead some sales guy sells something and then we have to break the system or band aid it to make it fit what they sold. Normally after the fact and needed yesterday. I could go on and on Bro…

Colin,
Two more ?s -
- Can you share the metropolitan area that you live in? Pit, Philly?
- What certs do you currently have?
Dave.
Well that is kinda of the reason for the post in the first place. Over the last 7 years at this place with running the Help desk I have let my certs expire. So thinking about wanting a change back to the technical I was going to either re certify my Cisco certs or go after something else, like VM-Ware or Cloud architect, security. I have been thinking about this to death and really doing nothing but complaining about it. I been complacent for way to long. I am going to just kick myself in the ass, form a plan, and start moving in a direction, any direction.
My background is in routing and switching, but I started in the 80’s with network support in the USAF. Worked as a contractor doing Banyan to NT Migrations. Went to work for Nortel doing WAN/MAN sales SE design and hated it. Got laid off and took my recent job as the IT operations manager running the help desk at my current company. Somewhere along the line I got derailed and I just want to get back on track again.
I live south of Pittsburgh, thanks for listing to me vent…lol
Ok, switching up the work out. Really enjoyed the 5/3/1 but I am getting really bored with it. I will test out my maxes this weekend and see if it worked.

This seems like a tough fucking session…awesome stuff
That ramping rep scheme looked pretty sucky. I’d have needed a nap.
There was definitely allot more work being done in a smaller amount of time, that damn Roman puts it on you. When I do his work outs I feel like I worked everything in my damn system and not just a body part.
Matty your Profile picture, looking completely jacked Bro, Shoulders look awesome, Good work!
