Popular Post GrumbleDook Posted February 23, 2021 Popular Post Posted February 23, 2021 and your pigs eager and ready to fly????? RFC1925 - The Twelves Truths of Networking. 3 - With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly overhead. 5

PaulB4AV Posted March 4, 2021 Posted March 4, 2021 Afternoon all, Great to be here. I've been working with school ICT Tech & Network Managers for the last 8 years, working as the Prowise Partner Manager. Personally I'm based in Clitheroe in Lancashire but cover the whole North of England and North Midlands. I'm sure I'll have met with a few of you over the years, so if you've welcomed me into your school it would be great to say hi. I'll go easy on the sales talk as I'm sure that's not what you need, but if you have any questions I can help with about Prowise products or are looking for info on touchscreen solutions, I'll be more than happy to help. Thanks for adding me to such a great forum, I'm sure some of the topics will be a real eye opener about what's going on in School IT support right now. Cheers, Paul.

Aurorelia Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 Hi all, I'm an IT consultant that works in 12 primary schools across the country. Previously I worked as a network engineer, but unfortunately was caught in a wave of redundancies due to the pandemic. I hadn't done any support work since the 2010s, so I'm playing catch up with new technologies. Nice to meet you! 1

petarian Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 Just joined this forum. I am an IT consultant in NJ for the past 20 years. Like to work with email servers, file servers and networks.
Z-Weber Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 Warren "Z" Weber here DBA Z-Ware. I'm a 50 year veteran of IT and have done pretty much every job in that industry: Computer Technician, Computer Operator, Programmer/Analyst, Systems Programmer, Consultant, etc. I worked for a wholesale grocer, a health care company and a bank before going strictly consultant. I've worked as a consultant for several consulting firms and software companies, including as a Senior Principal Consultant at Oracle (BTW a great company to work for since they recognize talent and reward it accordingly.) I'm partial to C++ language-wise, but I also know Basic and Pascal syntax (Oracle's PL/SQL embedded language is Pascal syntax.) I'll try to check back often to see if anyone has questions for me, and I'll do my best to answer them. P.S. The "Howdy" is because I'm a native Montanan.
