Total beginning was outsourced to do some pc rollouts at Honeywell Evere..
massive cube farm..

The rest of the team kept loading each pc by hand... installing drivers the works.
I was a noobie.. but hated the repetitive work.. I had come out of a pc clone shop and I was lazy.

So obviously on day one I fabbed up a file server OEM windows build, slapped all the drivers on that sucker and basically walked around with boxes and my flipping multiboot disk.

Got told off by my own company to slow down a bit cause they had specced out 5 months work and i had done about half of it in my first 2 weeks.

To which i say.. Why the hell would you specc out the time.. should have just specced out the work and you could have made 5 months money in 1 and a half with some room to spare.

Sales guy looked at me like I had just invented a lead to gold conversion chemistry.
Next quarter I was sent out to Compaq storage works seminar in Nice France.. with the sales rep for both of us having yielded the best result.

We didn't see much of the Seminar.. we did see a lot of the nice pebble beach in Nice. :P
