Day in Review -- Geek Speak

We had a vendor claiming that we were blocking their mail. Asked for the bounce message. There was none. Figure spam filter hit hard and just hung up on the connection. Do research and show no blocks. Talk to the vendor..."Oh, its working, no one has responded yet. I guess people are busy". Or my guess is users recognize spam even when an email filter doesn't say it is for them. Just a guess.

SQL class is going down the suck terrible path. Material is good. The labs blow. Either you cheat and use the scripts provided or have no chance. Then the organization is terrible. For authors and trainers, scattering shooting topics is no way to learn. BUILD on topics damn it! If you are going to jump around at least show me why and what we are gaining doing it this. Doing back-up/restore followed by security and auditing and then indexing followed by maintenance plans? huh? How about we put the pieces together? Security and auditing today? seriously, wtf?

I'm sure there was more, but what a frustrating waste of a day. Time to practice a bit.
