But.... I don't like that idea.

I would prefer a new blu-ray disc with an awesome game on it.

How old are you Greg, and what sector you work in?

21 and an IT admin mate.
I'm meant to be doing heaps and working hard but I don't like helping people anymore lol so basically when I drift off and do whatever like now I put this time down to "server issues" and other stuff they don't understand...really stretches the imagination sometimes

I have to be careful, If I get caught I'll be in heaps of trouble...good thing I'm very stealthy and can do just enough to not arouse suspicion...I need a new job

LMAO thats awesome. Yeah I'm 19 and a trainee tech in an IT shop.

Helping people is over rated. Its fair enough helping them, but then they want an explanation of what you did even though they dont understand it.
I think those people should go get... robbed.

Yeah I did some time in a PC shop, they're cool cause its not too stressful and yeah you get idiots but you're not stuck with them lol.
Seriously people just don't think...they come in a panic omg I can't print. I'll say did you restart? Oh ah No, do that and come back...oh that fixed it thanks Greg.
Hmm just like it did last time and the time before that...

Being a system admin is pretty stressful and when you're the only one dealing with over 60 people and 6 servers it's a lot at times...stay in the PC shop trust me!

One of the top 10 Office frustrations is the smart mouth IT guy and I gotta tell ya, after 3 years I can see why, you get burnt out and then start snapping at people lol.

Yeah, I can understand all of that. I cant even imagine managing 6 servers. Ugh, hell.
I dont understand some stuff about servers and networking. Haven't done all that much with them. I can network a house and all that, but some things like DNS and how they all relate to each other and wat not just confuse me.

But being 21 and managing all that is a fair effort! How'd you manage to get to that position?

I killed the previous IT guy and usurped his position.

Haha I'm related to one of the owners so I came in for work experience in school, they loved me and eventually made me permanent. I learnt most of it on the job with our external backup guy and went to TAFE for a while as well.
Honestly mate servers are easy to understand once you play with them for a while. Also once they're working well you don't need to do much

TAFE is great like that if you ever swap areas, 18 months and you can get an entry level position.

Cool tutorial cheers for the link Vin.
I'll be checking that out (hopefully tonight) and get the basics down better.
I fall for a lot of the common issues he mentioned so a tune up is needed!

i really really really need to work on hammer ons and pull offs (he says "lift offs" in the guide

)

anyways, is ANYONE having any problems with guitar hero 3 at all?

i've had no problems whatsoever and think that it's PURRRRR-FECTOMUNDO!

Yeah I suck at hammer on and pull offs, my brain is to slow to comprehend to do that instead of hit all 3 really quick...

Also gotta work on timing, once I get into a fast or slow rhythm and have the average time between notes worked out if it changes I'm in trouble!
...Stupid muscle memory get smarter lol.

Only issue I had was missing notes now and again but pushing the neck in after or during a song fixed that.
