Ok, so I'm crazy, but I like my job, the trick is to keep learning and
working on new things. There is always something new you could figure
out that would your network better, more efficient, or add useful
features. The only way I could get bored is if I got stuck doing help
desk full time. Right now I'm finishing the rollout of my new email
server, researching LTSP & AFS, working on an apache web server, looking
into snort and a group calendar server, etc. Lots to keep me busy.
