... and I need to rant and I know my fellow drivers will be cool with it.
The company I work for was acquired back in 2008 by a bigger company, but we essentially operate the way we always have. I manage all the IT infrastructure which is now located in Branson and Springfield MO. We have some new servers that I planned to install mid August. I sent a request to get access to the room I need to get into in Branson as my access card does not have the proper rights. I get an email back saying that all new installs have to be done by a different team and that I am not allow to do it anymore.
WTH?? This is OUR servers and the corp team has no clue how our stuff is all connected and taking the time to explain and document that is going to be a nightmare! Part of my job has always been to physically install stuff. I ENJOY it! I NEED to be able to do that. Now some new stupid policy aims to take that away! Those guys use all IBM. All our stuff is Dell. ALso, there is no way that they will be able to install stuff in a timely manner. I already know how backed up those guys are.
AARRGGHH!! I am so pissed off right now and for those of you that know me, I rarely get upset but this one takes the cake for me. I am prob going to step away for the rest of the day from work because I cannot concentrate on it right now.
Thanks for letting me rave and rant!
