Today was one of those “hit the ground running” days. What with two of the stations’ sales teams preparing to swap cubicles on Friday, the excitement level is rising steadily this week. Some of today’s highlights include:
- Production One’s Orban Audicy work station broke down. Turns out to have been a failed power supply, almost exactly like what happened to Production Three’s Audicy a couple of weeks ago. The power supply has been replaced and the Audicy is back in service.
- The Linux server that the Audicy workstations log into is running a Netware emulator which seems to have needed a swift boot to the rear. So I rebooted that box and waited ten minutes while the storage drive was “scanned.”
- One of our new AE’s needed to be gently informed that yes, you actually must click “OK” to log into the network when you boot your computer in the morning; otherwise you can’t print, run the specialized sales software or get at any of your files on the network. Whoops.
- I changed out the lame-assed D-Link print server in the KNRK studio for an Intel we had sitting around doing nothing. Hopefully the NRK airstaff will be much happier with their printer now.
And that’s about it… so far. After all, it’s only 1:30.
