      Yeah, it is really weird to think about how long we have mostly all been here.

        And to think about how much has changed. It is also really weird to think about things in terms of COVID. The pandemic has been a major factor now for two whole years, or a full quarter of the time that we've had the community!

              Latest discussion is on equipment we apparently don't own,... and is leased.

              And the lease expires in a month. And we had a support agreement when issues arose - that we didn't know about.

              Previous IT management dumped a load on the future IT management...

              I feel a storm brewing...

                    @wrcombs That's why I have a couple power supplies for laptop. Keep one at desk at home, and the other stays in bag. If by chance I accidentally leave the charger at a client's or something, I'm not screwed.

                      That is very easily way lighter than toting this thing around:

                          oooh. i had a lovely problem yesterday.

                          I'm removing 2012 servers from everywhere ATM.

                          Site had 3 DCs which had been in place for at least 12 months. 2 x 2016 and 1 x 2012. The 2012 was the oldest DC.

                          All DCs listed as GC servers, FSMO roles on a 2016 DC.

                          I removed the 2012 DC only to find after it had been demolished, that the GC hadn't ever successfully replicated to either 2016 server.

                          Fortunately the event logs had enough info in them for me to realise the only change that hadn't replicated was no longer needed.

                          I was able to make a reg change and everything bounced back to life.

                          nightmare averted.

                            Terraform is pretty cool.

                                    I kept it a simple affair for me. Coffee & Bagel... now on to other things like showing a coworker the ropes for installing a new VMswear server.

                                      Had my interview this morning - it was an interesting interview.
                                      I was interviewed by the Sys admin and a Level 1 tech.
                                      they asked some troubleshooting questions, asked about why I got into IT and what made me choose them. Things seem pretty relaxed there, a its a lot like what I currently do but with the ability to move up. Though I feel like it's another entry level position - I wouldn't be starting at entry level , more intermediate help desk/ Jr Sys Admin.

                                      Considering taking this one - if the stuff aligns.

                                        What kind of pay raise or cut are you looking at? Being relaxed at a job you spend most of your waking hours at counts for a lot, too.

                                          pay raise - close to 10k more a year + benefits are much better.
