I Have A New Job

As you know, My position here at ACS is being outsourced to Malaysia. Yes, the outsourcing company that I work for is outsourcing my position, I think that there is a joke in that… but it is escaping me at this point.

Yesterday, I was offered a position with Comcast Cable as a Senior Information Technology Analyst. (Fancy title for Systems Administrator) I will be one of a handful of guys dealing with server administration, patching, troubleshooting, diagnosing network issues, and troubleshooting/implementing various Microsoft Products.

Today, I had to sign some paperwork and pee in a cup. :P Comcast is the only company that has asked to do a background check, drug screen, or reference check performed on me. I don’t recall ever doing this for Corillian or even ACS. I certainly don’t remember peeing in a cup.

So, I am “officially” a Comcast Employee.

I'm sure that Corillian didn't have the pee cup test because the majority of senior management wouldn't pass. I mean, look at the choices they made and it's obvious that had to be on something.

WOW...

I can not say anything really bad about the choices that Corillian has made. I was not in that type of position, nor was it my call. Yes, in the time that I was there, they made some poor decisions, but that would be 20/20 hind-sight.

Corillian was good to me.. And that is all I am going to say on the subject.
