Why did they give me a live computer? 😅

Here is my work station at my job

Exploring the guts of our home. I’m hoping to add a lot more things to this and create a respectable network on my own. Next semester I will be taking networking 101, which is exciting.

My colleagues are awesome, my manager, district manager, and even the corporate guy are really great. I’m lucky to have another job with a cool team to work with.

The new  MacBook Pros are awesome. The emoji’s on the Touchbar was a nice idea

Next week I will proceed with my training videos. There is a staffer here from corporate so he is watching over us to assure everything goes correctly. My team at this job is cool and laid back. I think they are great to work with so if I have to remain here for a while I know there won’t be any stress or drama with this team.

Today we learned about RAID, how the hard drive physically works, and how to use a Virtual Machine. I’m a Mac user so I often have to gag my way through the Windows OS. Because we take out our external HDDs the software updates never push through. When we reconvene to class the computers always require an update. Today I didn’t get much experience due to the computer being slow, Windows being glitchy, and the amount of updates that was required. I enjoyed the power point and the opportunity to physically touch the HDD as we went along.
