well,
Work has sucessfully held my attention for 8 months. Thats a new record for me. Normally I get ticked and throw a fit at something in the first few weeks. I used to be a certified workaholic, I would spend upwards of 18 - 20 hours at my old job (computer support for a college here in WI) because hey, when it's only two guys supporting 300 faculty and 20 labs ranging in scope from business to ag to computer science with 800+ computers, there's a lot of ground to cover. I loved my job. then I screwed up and got fired. That pretty well disolusioned me to ever working that hard again. Wandered around for a bit until I finished college then worked odd jobs doing consultant work for a few years. I then got approached by my recruiter from
teksystems to work on a contract to permanent position with
TDS Metrocom based in Madison, WI. I now fix phone service for Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Minnisota, and North Dakota.
