Documentation

I promised to keep you all updated on the great documentation project of 2005. I’ve decided to break the documentation of job duties into time periods. There’s a separate list of everything that needs to be done on a daily basis, weekly or bi-weekly basis, monthly basis yearly basis and, finally, a list of on-going duties that aren’t tied to a specific time frame. Examples of those would be stuff like help-desk, user training, random monitoring, etc.

The sad thing, from a time-management point of view, is that the longest list of duties is the on-going list, meaning that most of my job can’t really be scheduled. My gut is telling me I’m not going to like seeing how much time I spend just “putting out fires”.

  • Eldred vs Ashcroft

    I’ve been reading some of the eyewitness reports on the oral arguments in this case that took place yesterday at the Supreme Court, and I have a question. Maybe not a legal question, but certainly a common sense one. If the Constitutional limits on Congress, in terms of copyright, are “copyrights must be limited in…

    OK, so Brian commented that I’d probably get much more use out of a full-blown Pocket PC like the iPaq than I would a PDA. I tend to agree with him on that, and that’s really what I’ve been leaning toward if I decide to get something like this. In fact, I can think of…

  • Windows NT 4

    As someone who still works with NT 4.0 servers in my professional life, I wasn’t thrilled when MS didn’t come up with a patch for an RPC vulnerability. On the other hand, I already have our NT 4.0 server behind a firewall with port 135 blocked, so it’s really not that big a deal. I…

  • It never ends

    Like I said yesterday, there’s been no signs of blaster on the loose on our work network, or our home network, but that hasn’t stopped me from having to email a few people at work the link to Symantec’s removal tool because they got it at home! Sometimes we forget just how many people out…

  • Hanging by a thread

    I’ve been trying this morning to install the Symantec Corporate AV Server to our file server but I’m running into a problem that’s obviously going to require some reasearch, ugh! I initiate the server deploy and it starts ok, it gets to 100% of “copying files” and then just hangs. It does nothing from there…
