^^^ Definitely not my style. Drink time is when my car is safely in the garage and car keys are not on me. Something I forgot to mention. My friend with 7 years experience within the company and many promotions etc. didn't get to this stage. This is the friend who's dad was on the panel.... Pissing me off now: 4G Data costs in Australia. gently caress Telstra. $50 for 3GB. Yes, three GB.

Why the hell did Cisco decide to gently caress with the IOS syntax on ASAs? I keep trying to use "do" or typing "sh ip in br" like you do on EVERY OTHER CISCO DEVICE and the ASA just smugly informs me it has no idea what I am asking.

Humphreys posted:Well dammit, the backup plan if I don't get this new job is move to Canada where my partner is originally from. I was at least hoping the internet was better there. Internet is probably better than Australia, but worse than much of the world, including third-world. There are at least options nowadays for resellers with effectively unlimited bandwidth, but the "big 3" (Rogers/Bell/Telus) have been loving with them every chance they get. The problem is that the big companies control the "last-mile" of infrastructure -- lines to homes -- which are supposed to be opened to third parties by federal regulation. Also one of the more popular resellers, TekSavvy, basically grew too big. They became popular through word-of-mouth at how great their service was, but even getting someone to answer your call now is an exercise in frustration. (No out-of-country call centres at least?) I seriously lucked out recently. I live in a downtown Toronto condo and the building got fibre hooked up. Completely independent of those horrible companies, amazing speeds, unlimited bandwidth, reasonable cost. Also just an ethernet jack in the wall.

Farking Bastage posted:They want you to use the awful ASDM ASDM isn't that bad, it's about on par with CCP. Well, I guess it depends what you think about CCP - I'm not a fan. ASA syntax is even better because you can run enable-level commands from anywhere! Configuring an ACL or interface? Boom, "sh int ip brief" that junk. I will admit that the reverse "int ip"/"ip int" thing is kind of dumb.

Inspector_71 posted:Oh. It's not an "arbitrary change". It's a platform/company Cisco purchased in the mid 90s, and have slowly upgraded and brought into line with IOS command syntax along the way. It was created as it's own product with nothing to do with Cisco or IOS by people who as far as I know never even worked for Cisco. I get that it's odd to use now because it smells a bit like IOS but doesn't quite work like IOS......but if you know where it came from you should be surprised it works like IOS at all, especially if you were deploying those things in the 90s.

Picked up a new client this past month. They are running their website in-house, on an Ubuntu VM running in VirtualBox on a Server 2003 box, on a fiber connection that is often slower than a T1. To make it even more awesome the VM randomly slows down to a crawl multiple times per week, bringing the host machine with it. Kill the VM and restart it and it's happy for a few days. Did I mention they have no backups in place? Now to get them to approve moving that to a real web host.

(or seals  )(I grew up in Houston, so "cold" to me is anything south of 50F. Then again, "hot" for me isn't until north of like 95F, whereas there's loads of people around here that start acting like they're dying at like 80F.)

Canadian here, and the same thing. Not quite as warm, but definitely colder, so the same variation. poo poo that pisses me off? It snowed this morning. Two accidents on my quiet street, and lost power for about 30 minutes after one of them. Ah well, first day back from vacation, who wants to work anyways.

About to move somewhere that will be my first residence ever without central air, I'm not yet sure how I'm going to cope next summer...  Back on topic, poo poo that's pissing me off today is after being off on Monday I come back to find a whole bunch of poo poo my coworker had to do in my absence that he half-assed and now I'm having to deal with. One of the things he did (poorly) is something I have very extensively documented. I'm getting really tired of having to remind the guy to do some of this poo poo over and over and over again.

I hope it's a typo, because it looks like it's a 22hour shift, 4 days in a row for the grave shift position? I like working crazy hours, but that is not physically possible.

It gives you a day or two to actually function at normal daylight hours before you have to go back to your 3rd shift sleep schedule.
