Corporate Zombie

This last week ive been finding myself under stress. Thanks to a number of issues in work and at home, my stress levels have simply gotten the better of me.

Yesterday as soon as i got into my van i could feel tightness in my chest, and as i was going from job to job, i found that the tightness was dissipating as things went right, but the second there was a sniff of a problem, man that tightness was right back

Why am i this stressed? Well last week i had some major issues with a site and the Conficker worm. Long story short, it dragged on, and i began to question my technical skills. What was really needed on site was the ability to stand back and look at the overall situation. I did find the solution, but made some small errors while pushing to get the issue resolved made me really question my choice of career, like leaving a small desktop switch turned off, then pulling out hair trying to figure out why the owners pc wouldnt connect to the network!

So last night i had a dream. In it i deployed from start to finish 4 Windows XP Pro PC’s, straight from creating an unattend file to adding service pack 3 after the install! I mean i dreamt the entire thing like a freakin MS best practice webcast! Thats just not right!

Now that just isnt right!
