Week 1 Appalachee Ridge Project

Have been busy during the last week or so, on Thursday I got the information needed to do my part of the Project Plan; which is the proposed solution. Knocked that out by Friday to give everyone enough time to read it and propose suggestions on how to make it better. Oddly, no one did, so I guess that the ideas I had were the right ones. On Sunday we all met at the project site at 1 pm to begin the work. Well, actually I got there at 1:15, as the directions I had been given had the wrong address. But, no worries, I got there and began to help. Over the next 3 hours or so, we cataloged and inventoried every computer in the place, getting info on hardware as well as software. I think we did a pretty good job, we even started cannibalizing computers that don't work to make a few that do. One of the benefits we found is that there were a couple fairly sweet machines there, and we will be turning one into a server, which will speed up their system since the server they have now is quite a bit older than the one we are going to build them.

In The Beginning

The reason for this blog is not to publish a rambling discourse of my life, rather, it is intended to show future employers my skills in Information Technology. I also believe that it will polish my documentation abilities as well as my writing style.
