I am the IT department for my company of, oh, 400-500 people? Definitely somewhere around 275 computers though, and phones, and video stuff, cameras, wireless, internet, emails, printers, copiers, etc, ad nausem. Heck, I even do the code locks for doors, safes, and have been known to even do a bathroom partition or two, in the day...

Yes, me=the entire department. Funtimes, funtimes...

/I don't know how I do it either.
//Gettin' harder and harder to justify having the internet there, I tell ya. People have no common sense or self-control...
///"zOMG this looks fishy... I'm gonna open it to be sure." Really? That makes sense to ya does it?
////"Yeah, um, houtex? Yeah, see... I clicked this thing because it said I should..."
/////I actually LIKED doing the bathroom partitions... nobody wanted to, so it paid pretty good, and nobody bothered you, you just did them.
//////Freakin' managers couldn't MEASURE worth a crap though, so... that ended. And seriously, hanging partions are Da DEBIL!!

It's a pretty big area, we average more runs then some departments...and not just AFA's, nice trucks and smart guys(for the most part)

We just took delivery on a 2012 tandem pierce walk in and have 2 09 seagraves

Just something I never wanted to do for a carrer, I can go to fires and just come and go as I please lol

That sounds like a pretty cool idea. Don't know how it will work in Texas but a Hawaiian restaurant sounds great. Good luck.
