Upgrade update

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

My original prediction, of course, was a month and 4 meetings. The President got the memo yesterday, had a short meeting with my boss, and sent me 4 different emails with questions and suggestions for possible changes. My boss is now trying to schedule a meeting for us to discuss options with 3-4 other people, from which we are to make more suggestions and meet again with the President. (Neither of these meetings is likely to happen until after next week’s “event”) So we’re still on target for that prediction.

I told you this wouldn’t be simple. 🙂

It, obviously, focuses on working the security/consulting side of things, but I think it’s an important part of any good IT professional’s career. To most people within our organization, our word is all they get to hear about technical…

  • Blogging as public speaking

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 3 minutes

    Aaron has posted a few thoughts, comparing his efforts to improve on public speaking to the efforts on improving his writing via his weblog. It’s an interesting comparison because in some ways they are similar. When you speak publicly you are using words to communicate thoughts and ideas to people, trying to educate, persuade, and…

  • Trip to the Wilds

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    We got to take a safari tour of The Wilds yesterday. We had been a few years back, but armed with some better camera equipment and a free pass to the extended safari, we were really excited to get out there and shoot some wildlife photos. It was quite fun. The highlight of the extended…
