D&D just wrapped up.

Looking for some interesting training / certification. CEH -> ECSA maybe?
-
Hard to describe how professional it is when I get a spam email from the owner of a decent sized software company. Looks like either his email was hacked or he clicked on a link and it's a spam bot.

Watching Temple Grandin with Mrs nadnerB

Waiting for the person to get here and fix our phone system.
Run away from any Samsung iDCS-100 you see! We lost power for long enough to cause everything to shut down over the weekend, the phone system of course doesn't deal well with sudden power loss. The UPS will keep it running for ~3 hours, but it looks like it was out for ~6 hours over the weekend

@travisdh1 No email alerts setup on your UPS's??!

Oh how I wish. Last time we tested SIP/VOIP it was absolutely horrible
Edit: Yes, our internet connection is that bad, at both physical locations.

Taking the day off to do as little as possible.

You don't have to use SIP trunks to the CO, you can use TDM with convertors.

If your PBX is dead, you might as well convert now.
FreePBX to a Grandstream GXW4108 or Sangoma Vega50 will let you connect 8 POTS lines to it.

You don't avoid VoIP internally just because VoIP externally is bad.

We've been over it (me and the owners), maybe this surprise bill will convince them? Not holding my breath.

They actually looked into it and decided to retain the risk and cost of the old system without benefits? What logic did they present for that decision?

Convoluted of course.

In my case, they looked at the risk/cost and decided that end user training and lack of a feature they used to keep them from moving away from Mitel.

Mitel is at least already VoIP though.
