My Pops taught me to be myself. Everybody puts their pants on the same way -- even if you have a butler to help you do it.

He also taught me to not be afraid to experiment from time to time, and that is how I wound up in IT, lol. Always something to learn and tinker with.

I learned from both of my folks the importance of family -- blood or not... and that has probably been the biggest career influence for me. I like being close to home, and I like being in a job where my bosses know (and understand) that family comes first.

Will they let me in this time? I'd like to come up, but the Makerspace is very unwelcoming. Remember they turned me away last time that I showed up there.

Why?

Probably effects of the inifiban he got from the mothership.

No, this was a year ago and unrelated to Spiceworks. This was purely about the MakerSpace. No one was allowed in when I was there. I was a few minutes late, so however the other people got in, was closed off when I arrived.

@NetworkNerd I enjoyed the whole subject of Hero Worship in the IT/Tech World.

Thanks for the feedback, and we're glad you enjoyed it. 🙂

@jaredbusch I wasn't suggesting me... Maybe he is close with someone in the community he would trust...
