Good luck. Don't really have much experience with it as I've worked for the same company for 35 years but my brother is in IT, as was my dad so I've seen them have to deal with some real bull before.

I am, slower than long ago, but still here, running a quiet little net275.

Took a job transition 3 mnths ago and having all sorts of fun with learning curve (grin). Now working at NAVIFOR because my NETC job moved to Millington TN and after 26 years of Navy moves, I'm over that. Was a bit touch and go on finding one for a bit but got one. GS13 roles are fairly thin on the ground....

Still catching up on new one.

About the same here, net 396 is down to just my node and the fido<>internet gate. Two of the other nodes have literally died and the third and fourth went MIA. Bummer.

Hmmm. NAVIFOR. Now that's really interesting. You're lucky; like you said, the way things are now, GS13 roles are probably more scarce than hen's teeth. I'm glad for you.

Still catching up on new one.

I'm sure you'll be up to speed in no time!

As far as my situation goes, I'm still awaiting that meeting with the owner. In the meantime, he's instructed HR to keep me on full time and instructed my direct boss to start making preparations to get my department up on the web in various places. Makes sense; you can't sell from a full wagon if nobody can see the wagon. So now, I'm just sort of biding my time until my boss gets up off his duff and does as instructed. Only time will tell. I made my position clear and my offer - someone has to follow-through as I can't possibly do everything, particularly advertising.

Best regards,
Marc

Good luck on it! I can't recall what you do for a living?
Obviously some sort of production of a sellable product.

Carol, I'm a Certified Electronics Technician, Audio and Industrial Controls, Journeyman level.

My boss has indeed made one small step towards the advertising of the Service Centre - a Facebook page... not much, but at least a start. I think he'll need a LOT of "prodding" to follow-through with other media... Time will tell.

Mine's normally called 'Data Analyst', 'Program Analyst', or
'Program Manager'. Can't complain on the pay but finding the jobs
can be very difficult. My age is actually somewhat of an
advantage.... (grin). Hours are long and lots of off the clock
study (can't charge for it very often unless on travel).

Can't remember if you're Civilian or a Naval Officer?

Military would have been my first choice of careers. (Hell, I'd be a retired Commander or higher by now) had it not been for f*****g type 1 diabetes; nobody would touch me with a ten-foot pole. Life tends to suck in many but not all respects.

Made a new friend this week. Duncan McCloud. Name gives us a
little giggle but he's good hearted about it.

At least it wasn't spelled MacLeod and he doesn't look like Adrian Paul <grin>.

Marc

Grin, Civilian now. Was Enlisted (26 years) then 10 years SQL programmer and now 4 years Civilian GS.

LCDR equal but it's a bit blurry at those levels where can be CDR job easily. (O5 for the rest). Military is equally blurry at LCDR/CDR.

You expect anyone outside the US military (which is 99,9% of Fidonet) to understand any of this?

A few of us do. OTOH, maybe it's a side-effect of being exposed to too much
US TV. ;)
