Like Spider and T_W I have found there is more to life than the net, and rather than spend hours on here (believe it or not, I have read almost every single topic ever posted on the FOG... I just don't reaply to many)... I have stuff to do...

For the next 2 weeks I am doing work experience at a company called Quinton Hazell in their IT section. I had my first day today... just gave me a CD drive, a load of disc, and a really old PC and told me that they wanted this PC (with no OS or anything) to be on Windows NT, with a load of software and CD drive, and that it will be used as the head antivurus compauter at their northern HQ. Should be fun:)

(Actually, I'm serious... my boss is a pretty cool guy... and I don't have to work "all" the time ;) lol)

Then, after that, I'm off on holiday (THAILAND!!!!! woo hoo!!!), for 2 weeks! I come back on the day I get my AS results! :o

And then... I *could* be starting my dream job working part time in Gamestation:):):) great perks, good pay, all the latest imported consoles to play on ;)

incase u have actually read the original topic and I didn;t make it clear:

Quinton HAzell make car parts and are HUGE distributers... hence they have an international computer network... based in nunteaton. I am doing work experience there, and you will find from my previous posts what jobs I have done for them.

Anyway, if u were refering to the "dream job" I might be getting... part time in Gameststion (like EB, but better)... good pay, perks and discounts:)

Finished that virus server that I was doing yesterday... it's now running the whole network virus scanning routines in the Wales HQ!

Now I have been given a laptop... which I have just erased the hard drive from, and will now have to re-install a load of stuff (I was meant to do that incase it's not clear! lol). Having some driver problems though... ah well! At least I'm in my own office, with 3 computers totally at my disposal :) Oh, and I have my own fridge and microwave:)

wahahaha

I did Work Experience for 2 weeks at Julian Hodge Bank.

I was lucky enought to get into their IT department!!!

The good thing with that is I found it quite easy to do as I know a lot about computers already.

Although I did learn a few new things about how computers are used within businesses.

Any chance you'll be getting orders from SR so they can sell software?
