Starting pay at ShoreGroup is $10/hour for my position but assuming I get brought on after six months, I go up to $15/hour.

50%, that is quite an increase!

Yup. They also pay for your testing. I've been told they give you vouchers the first couple times you take a Cisco cert, like the CCNA or CCNP, and then after that you have to pay for it but they reimburse you, pass or fail. That was something I've never heard of another company doing. A lot will cover the cost two, or maybe three times, but after that you have to pay for it yourself.
Also, I've been told each cert you get is an ~5K/year pay increase.

Just another ordinary day, today at work.
Not fun lols -
Watching Easter Parade (1948) with my wife, sister in law and niece. Fred Astaire and Judy Garland.

Catching up on my various cough downloads...

Awake already, got about an hour or two of sleep and then could not fall back asleep, so I am awake and on my laptop now.
-
Sorting out a laptop for a family member. I thought it was a personal one but it turns out it's a business one.
I should have charged for my time.

Still awake.

Spent most of yesterday, and will spend most of today, watching classic movies with my sister in law. She's on a classic cinema binge because she's never seen much of it. She and @dominica started off trying to watch ones that no one has ever seen, but there is a reason why no one has ever seen them and they kept giving up because they were awful.
Finally convinced my SIL to watch tried and true ones and now it is much more fun. Managed to get through all of Monkey Business and Pillow Talk yesterday. They turned off three or four other movies that were unwatched.... Carousel, Something About Eve, "Valley of the Dolls"....
Today I am pushing for more good Rodgers and Hammerstein like State Faire, Oklahoma, South Pacific and Doris Day classics like Glass Bottom Boat or Rock Hudson like Man's Favorite Sport.

Watching Pluralsight series on system center orchestrator fundamentals as part of building 2 new servers for our Sharepoint team. Need to provision instances in a faster way and need to automate loads of things. Interesting..

South Pacific there's one I haven't seen in a long while.Watching Milo (kitten) watch the birds after having set out more seed.
Worked remotely to do my mileage sheet, and order toner for the office. Is that a squirrel? Oh shiney...
About to think about lunch,... Also spec'ing out details to build a replacement device for the Black and Decker StormStation which was discontinued some years back.
I have three of them,.. but the radio isn't the greatest. They have served well over the years even for the limited ability they have. I modified these to allow to be direct connected to a solar panel so that they can operate and be charged at the same time.
I think maybe the Raspberry Pi is going in the design....
