Well I'm finally going to have a mission again. I have been selected to be the Section Chief for Site Support in the FEMA IT Services Division. Basically I'm responsible for providing all the IT support (network, computers, telecom) for FEMA Hqs. Man am I looking forward to getting on the job.
You might wonder why I would take a pay cut and take a job where most of the time you get hollered at? Because I need a mission - I need to do something that counts for something. Keeping the comms running at FEMA fits that bill for me.
I picked up a phrase years ago - don't know who I got it from but it had to be a fellow comm-weenie: "Doing a good job in comm is like wetting your pants in a dark suit. It gives you a nice, warm feeling and nobody notices." Someone recently added a second part: "After the nice, warm feeling goes away you're simply left cold and wet."
