Sounds like a nice job, shame is not in North Yorkshrie

[webman]

Yes, damn. Shame I don't live in Kent. Where are all the jobs in the North!?

[john]

I wish there was more up near North Yorkshire / Lancashire as I am always on the look out for better prospects

[webman]

I just want to get away from working in the middle of a classroom and scanning documents

[ChrisH]

Thats why I dont have a scanner in my room. Also why are you in the middle of a classroom!!!

[john]

As his office is built in the middle of the IT suite??? I am next to one hidden away, and the copier is my scanner, but I have had scanners in my room before as we find the ye olde textbridge runs best as an administrator rather than domain user so I tend to do it as a favour for selected staff who we know will provide us a favour back, and it works! I a getting my office painted, a new window and new carpet!!!

There often is. Just look at the jobs vacancy section of the Lancashire COunty Councils' web site http://www.lancashire.gov.uk/corporate/vacancies/index.asp as we always advertise our school vacancies there. Sometimes it is quite full of educational IT jobs. And you get to meet me

[john]

OOH, I can hardly wait! It needs to be near the Lancs / Yorks border for me though, CBA to travel to Preston every day

[webman]

John, ChrisH: Long story. Office? Nah.. more like a cage. What more could I ask for? The loud noise of the class room is not a problem either And scanning? All in aid of our forth-coming VLE apparently.

[john]

@webman, poor you! At least you use an isp that is decent (or was until Pipex )

[webman]

Thanks John.. yeah, now I got my driving license I can find somewhere that understands the requirement for IT Support

 

Yep.. they were great.. now they also change the TOS without informing people (traffic shaping). Once I move I'll probably migrate back to Zen

[john]

My service is still ok (touching lots of wooden things around me), I am not a torrent user really, so does not bother me, and my mailserver, and webserver work well still so i am sticking for now. I wish i could justify the cost of Zen as its rather expensive for a 2MB connection, but when I get a pay rise or change school who knows!

[webman]

Ah well.. you may not notice it so much then

 

Fingers crossed

[MkII]

Thats amazing Webman! Looks pretty plush otherwise.

[webman]

It'd be alright if it weren't for the noise level

[mac_shinobi]

lol @ cage

 

They trying to keep you there or something, maybe they forgot the steel door with the lock and chain lol

[webman]

Lol yeah.. its actually possible to get locked in as the lock and handle only exist on the outside I bet most of you lot have a nice quiet office/server room away from classrooms 8O

 

Sorry to divert off-topic :oops:

[ChrisH]

Mines between two classrooms so not exactly quiet. Its also pretty much open plan with me having one half and two teachers sharing the other half. My side is is sectioned off with a couple of cupboards with a gap inbetween. I keep asking for that partion wall every year since its quiete easy to wonder in and take something. Maybe this will be my lucky year

The size isnt too bad though as its the size of a small classroom.
