I want to shake the hand of the person that bought you the title because I got beat to the punch. Working in IT, thinking making slightly over 100k is a lot when living on the east coast! Come on CF/DAF, keep on drunk posting for us so we can all learn the mighty art of IT

Judge Schnoopy posted:I don't see a "win" coming out of this for anybody. If you're the one they keep, you're inheriting the workload of 2 people on top of what you already do, and since you were "saved" by management you'll be indebted to do all the work without complaint or additional compensation. I agree with this, you should just job hunt and even if you win that position leave the company asap. Thats a sinking ship and you need to bail out

SSH IT ZOMBIE posted:Is VSAN different than VPLEX? I've sorta been poking the storage engineers, VPLEX seems nice for data migration projects between data centers. Very much so vSan is your Software defined storage from Vmware VPLEX is your HA to another datacenter so you can failover the backend without the hosts realizing it. Lots of other details for it but a VPLEX still requires other storage behind it to help facilitate DR.

Just an aside from PDF resume chat. My wife had a recruiter modify a resume of hers a few years back. She had a copy of her original when she interviewed and the guys interviewing pulled out a copy of the doctored one. That recruiter lost that client for the future after they all compared and went wtf? Never give anyone a modifiable resume if you can avoid it. You never know what they'll do with it

MC Fruit Stripe posted:I'll be honest I'm not like the discussion decider guy but I'd prefer that not be the topic. Buddies doing his right now. They give you an adviser and they keep you on track with goals. Really fair to work with and a number of the classes are actually relevant for Sysadmin/IT folk if you do an IT based masters. Once I finish the last few items on my undergrad I'm thinking of applying to WGU for a Masters

Sprechensiesexy posted:We have been interviewing people for various network/security engineering positions and it has been dreadful. Dude came in, went from CCNA security to CCIE security in 8 months, couldn't tell the difference between a stateful and stateless firewall. I helped interview one of those for our Shanghai group! After the interview we had our HR group ask them for their CCIE # as well as links to validate their CCNP/CCNA. I'll give you one guess if we ever heard back from them again! Had a 2nd "CCIE" apply as well that gave us a 5 digit CCIE number in the 40,000s. Every permutation of their name on their resume as well as names from their linkedin came back blank. Asked them to send proof+proper links. Nope not legit! Gotta love people lying on their resume.

Sprechensiesexy posted:I'm not personally involved yet with the interviewing, but after hearing those horror stories I decided to volunteer to do some in the future. It seems like a good thing to have on your CV under soft skills. And always ask for a sheet with the links to the certification validation pages. Most vendors give you that link/number for your resume/cv to reference when needed. If a candidate can't produce that info, they most likely are lying. Especially when you ask them about simple things like vlans and broadcast domains and they sound like they are googling answers (they were)

Kashuno posted:I’ve heard “cut the poo poo” used multiple times when talking to vendors about things like that. Calling someone out for lying, especially if it’s blatant, is totally within scope and may definitely even be in your job responsibilities depending on your position I'm going to have to majorly agree with this one. All dependent on your position but sometimes you gotta tell vendors to cut it out and get things done. I generally either go to a different VAR or Vendor if they are bullshitting me too much. I lay it out there though "be 100% straightforward with me and you have my business. You bullshit me, we cut you out and go to a competitor"

devmd01 posted:We are finally down to two access databases in use and there is active development in progress to get off of at least one of them. gently caress access and marketing with a rusty bottle opener Marketing has been my #1 nemesis in the IT world. Example 1: Payroll printer offline (gently caress you printers). One of marketing's Macs had bonjour service spamming 40k frames a second looking for AppleTvs on the network. Payroll's Check printer had a 10mbps NIC and got steamrolled by broadcast traffic. Example 2: Mark: Help! My external HD isn't working! We have critical footage we shot a month ago on it for a TV commercial campaign! IT: A month ago? Why wasnt that data put onto your NAS share? Mark: It took too long to copy! IT: *Checks access logs* You didn't even try to access the share or use it. $6000 later for data recovery services they got their files back. That marketing guy was fired a month later thank goodness Example 3: Devs and C Levels: "We're locking everything down as someone leaked internal IP docs to the press! IT! Implement draconian security measures to treat the employees like children!" Marketing guy thought it would generate good buzz to give some breadcrumbs to some tech press on new products. Leaked documents had sensitive R+D items from proprietary intellectual property. Thank goodness the patents were already filed and approved years before the leak.
