IT Insurrection
So, doing some “IT stuff” and
finding my background in RPGs, Video gaming and tabletop gaming is coming in
REALLY handy. Turns out, I am good at
the whole “politics” thing… I just
strongly dislike doing it. Kind of the
whole thing about figuring out what the rules are, who is in charge of what and
how to get around all of that part… Actually,
I think it is the fact that this sort of thing is NECESSARY annoys me more than
anything else does. Wasting a few years
of work doing what was necessary only to have it all evaporate for lack of
funding/direction/whatever. What we were
TRYING to do was add in automation in order to actually do our jobs, the whole “do
more with less” thing that happens when say, the State has no budget for 3
years and we still have to make things work in spite of that. In any case, it appears that things are
falling into place and it might even work out.
I guess we will see. Hoping that
this time it does not get me into trouble for “exceeding my authority”, but honestly,
I am somewhat OK with that… Something I
know we need, so I will help make it happen.
Moreover, since I have actually gotten other job offers outside of the
University system now I am not feeling quite so locked into the system. ALMOST to the point where I CAN actually “retire”
and keep my medical benefits… NOT really
wanting to leave the University, but since there are not opportunities to
advance here it might be the next step for my career. In a few years probably. Ideally, after the girls make it through
College of course, but that is 8 more years…
X-Wing, I have my first Store
Championship of the year this weekend.
Going to Titan Games in Peoria…
The event starts at 9:30, so it will be an EARLY morning for me and LONG day I guess, but should be a lot of fun
I hope. I’m flying my Firesprays:

Not 100% sure about the Missiles still, but looking like
this is how I will play it out. Kath
NEEDS to be flown a lot more conservatively going slow and keeping the range
for the fully modified HLC shots until she does the burst forward and goes for
the Rear Arc shots… You know, if it all
goes according to plan. Fett is just a
brawler. Roll in, hit hard and fast,
hope to take down more points before he dies.
A fair number of things that are hard counters to this list like Tyler’s
Worlds list, but even that… I am hoping
that he will at least know he was in a fight J… Working
out the basic opening moves then getting into the scrum… X-Wing being a dice game after all, it does
eventually come down to actual dice rolling…
