So, I’m on the market.

I found out on Wednesday that the position I’m in at LW (Quality Control) is being dissolved, so I was given a few choices: Support Supervisor, Monitoring Tech, and Support Tech. After lots of debate and hemming and hawing, it looks like I’m gonna do some support for a while. I’m actually kind of excited, which will probably make many of you think I’m crazy. A month or so ago I came in on a Saturday night, and spent a good 6 hours just doing tickets. It was the most fun I’d had at my job in quite a while. I miss the daily challenge and the weird stuff. I still have a lot of technical knowledge, but it’s slipped quite a bit from where I was when I stopped doing Monitoring full time (you know, three years ago).

I’ll have another week to tie up my loose ends in this spot, and then it’s back to the phones and helpdesk. I’m sure I’ll tire of it shortly, but I welcome the challenges.

Ani suggested we set up a cage match for the department heads, and let them fight over who gets me. Think we could make some money on that one?

    Jeebus, lady, I’m sorry. I know what you mean about support being fun for awhile, though – it’s just when it’s Your Real Day Forever that it becomes monotonous and awful (at least for me – some folks love it forever, goodness bless them.)

    Craziness. Madness in every direction.

    Who needs quality control when you’ve vindictive-yet-charming fratboys making decisions that are so far outside their area of “expertise” that it’s not even funny?

    if there was a “like” button or “thumbs up” here, I would have clicked it on dwalters post until my mouse begged for mercy.

      I feel like you like to make things beg for mercy. It’s kind of what you’re like.
