My turn for the week....

Well.. guess I'm entitled.

So I'm on project, waiting to move ahead, but relying on other people to uphold their end of the deal purely sucks.

Told them over 6 months ago Virus software licences would expire. Reminded them at 3 months. 1 month. Now its all past due. Its been passed to three other leads so far, on a "plan of attack". They said I don't need to, or shouldn't have to, since its a software procurement, and as the network guy, it should be one of them doing it.

Bloodyhell, I can go online and get the software and the 30 some licences, and either download it, or have it overnighted.

So all that; to keep security off my ass, is on hold due to someone being too lazy to do their job.

Same said people; have known since I came on board we need to decommission some older servers. Now its crunch time, no one wants to put their balls in the fire and say Cut it. I've had the damn things powered off, and off line for over a month, and not one person has bitched. Can I get them to sign off on the decom... NNNNNOOOOOOoooooo.... its the old fabled "We might need something" bull!!!!.... But I've already moved the 'identified' items off to the new servers.

And what about the "Takers" ??? Its all fine and good to go helping others, but when you turn around and say, help me with this, they're always too fooking busy! WTF is up with that. Sure, I help folks out as best I can, but don't just make lame excuses. If folks don't want to help out, then they sure as hell should keep their mouths' shut, and not offer.

And why the hell are people so afraid to "cold call" others? Got a job lined up, to make a few more bucks, and the people just aren't communicating. They're trying to milk the info/data out of me without paying up. Shyte like that makes me wanna just drop the idea.

Suppose I'm just cranky since I got "things" that need or can be done, and stuck waiting for the politics. Suppose next week or so, I'll just do it, and then tell them tuff !!!!. Just makes me so fooking loony.

Awe well, at least I got "friends" who can still !!!! on me and make it look & smell nice, and try to tell me its not what I think it is. Whatever!
