[XJLI]

I did IT for 2 years, then switched the AV. been doing AV for almost a year.

 

[DaveS98]

What do you do?

 

[XJLI]

High end commercial and residential AV systems automation. I do installs and service calls, so everything from pulling cable to trying to figure out why some tv isn't working. Starting to delve into Crestron programming too. Basically, we build stuff for custom touch panels so you can press a button on the touch panel that says "watch tv" and all at once the tv powers up and chooses the correct input, home theatre turns on, lights turn low and shades to down.

Here's a pic of a touch panel programmed for a house

And the view from the house it was in

Good thing this isn't in a Jeep subforum.



I stare at a computer all day. When something doesn't work right I call one of you guys, sit back and take a break. While secretly hoping that the computer is down for the count.

 

[DaveS98]

Haha.

I get that shit all the time.

What really irritates me is when an old ladies pc fugs up and they ask 1000 questions about it and you have to explain everything.

 

[FlyNNN]

Well then go talk jeeps...

Will do. What kinda' Jeep you got?

[DaveS98]

Sarcasm is in the air.

I drive a 2000 xj 4.5" lift Custom built 3 link, 35" Mickey Thompson MTZs.

This is an IT thread though, so my jeep is irrelevant

Captain IT,

Your use of large bold font is FAR more annoying than his choice of thread subject.

 

[GSequoia]

IT sucks.

I oversee all systems for a small but nation-wide commercial real estate firm. I'm responsible for about 125 people spread out. I have offices in Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, Salt Lake City, Austin, Chicago, Minneapolis, Boston (Wellesley actually), and Washington, D.C.

As I said, IT sucks.

Captain IT, Your use of large bold font is FAR more annoying than his choice of thread subject.

WTF?? Maybe someone needs to get their bifocals adjusted. Here's what everyone else sees;

 

[DaveS98]

Dude..

Durr...

 

[DaveS98]

And again (Not bold this time, but equally as dumb):

 

[Talyn]

I did IT in New Orleans for 5 years full time, prior I did side work. Now I'm back to just side work.
