Re: Roll CALL!
I work for a large IT/Mgmt training company running the instructor help desk, the new student help desk, and the ops computer lab. I get to do everything from answer the phone to figuring out why a cisco router doesn't work. First time I have ever really liked my job.

As of now, My direct roll is to develop intranet reports in SQL reporting Services and do DBA work for several SQL Server 2005 Databases.. Those are my main two roles for now, but I also do many other tasks with our engineers on the side such as Exchange 2007 Admin, AD administration and some other sysadmin work.
I started out at this company 2 years ago as a Desktop Support specialist, and can relate with alot of these funny help desk tickets i'm reading on this forum..
I'm Currently Comptia A+ Certified, and have 2 terms left until I graduate with my Bachelor of Science degree in Information Technology. Specifically Networking.. I learned alot about Cisco, and have been flirting with the idea of becoming cisco certified..
I'm torn, however, If I want to keep more in the development/progamming world.. (Flexible but can get boring)...
Or go to my grass roots and utilize what i've learned at school and become a network engineer or some kind of network specialist...
I like both aspects of networking and programming (Specifically SQL programming cause that's pretty much all I know for now).. But as far as my career aspirations, i think that computer network technologies are my aspirations. |

1 edit | Time for me to finally check in. I started today as a part of my work study in NYU FAS Computing. I deal with faculty and staff who have NYU-owned computers. We fix computers, do a lot of reimaging/ghosting/etc, and order lots of stuff.
Our university has an enterprise contract with Dell, so almost all of the equipment we see, setup, and fix are Dells. We do get the occasional Mac though.
I also watch a lot of stuff on hulu, eat food, and do nothing for a few hours at a time.

I work in a Network Operation Center for an LD and prepaid wireless company. My primary job is on the LD side. We do have some local in Maine as we are reselling Faircrap, also local in a few other states but not really actively trying to sell. Primary work is with our local, LD, TFN and efax services, reinstating/canceling accounts to working tickets from customers with stuff not working. Also do some orders/provisioning when the needs arise, jack of all trades really. |

Hey all, I used to troll these forums but I decided to sign up and be legit...
I'm a Systems Manager for a major international hotelier, I cover a handful of large properties and handle desktop support, servers, networking etc, pretty much all things IT on the property level. Although I am part of a team for my local area, when I'm on prop as far as my users know I am the one man IT show (!) The nice thing about my job is prob that there is a large corp IT apparatus behind me that seems to have my back.
I recently graduated with a BS in Information Studies and Poli Sci and so far am loving my first down and dirty bite at real enterprise IT.
I look forward to contributing! |
