🎉 A New Job with UTAC.

The " vacation" is over! I accepted a role with UTAC as an IT System Administrator at their Northville, Michigan office.

1yr in Vegas

The date had almost slipped me by. I have now been living in Vegas for 1yr, 6 months longer than I really would have cared for. I moved to Vegas to get out of computers for a bit and attempt to work at one of the many clubs or casinos… And if you know where I stand now, and you know that didn’t happen. Instead, I ended up working for a company that provides support for all of the casinos and bars. ...
