tech Back to Work

Posted at 10:26 pm MST to Technology

After a few weeks of mostly paying attention to snow and mice (the kind with fur), I'm back to working for my living. The nice thing about this current contract is that it mostly doesn't matter if I get snowbound: through the wonders of the modern network, I can work from home across a VPN and wiith conference calls. Once we get everything talking to everything else, that is.

I think we are most of the way there... finally. I can access the databases I need to script schema changes for, I just can't access the one with the spec for the changes I'm supposed to make. Tomorrow I should have the specs, one way or another and I should be able to start making the changes.

The week after next I go to Silicon Valley for some face-to-face work at the client site, but I'm only suppposed to need to go out of town one week out of three or four.

Ah the wonders of the web. This should be much better than flying out every week, or being stuck away from home for months at a time.
