So ends my first day at the office. I spent most of it learning the job tracking system, sitting in a nice A/C office for most of the time. Just as the day hit 39C a truck load of PC boxes and CRT monitors arrived, so I ended up out in the heat lumping heavy weights on a trolly. Some genius in Sydney thought it was okay to shrink-wrap a pallet of unboxed monitors, and packed them by wrapping them in bubble wrap (ooh! Poppy!) and standing them on their ends--50% face down, 50% face up.

The destination store room was on the 4th floor. Elevators are your friend, but it meant we coulfn't pack more than 3 monitors on the trolly or they wouldn't fit through the doors.

So I'm a bit tired.

Tomorrow they'll let me install a CPU.

That's the Real World Batty. The Penguinistas are living in a fantasyland really. MS has near 100% domination of the small to mid-sized business world. Only in .com and .edu land do you find much *ix.

Remember to populate the switches with a the helper IP of the DCs if you are running VLANs (which you really ought to be) so surfing the behind the PIX lan for shares and printers works reliably.
