Because they would actually need to install this font/software. They can easily switch fonts and assume that everybody has Century Gothic as it's already widely installed. The additional IT overhead probably don't justify the impact on savings.
Holy over-engineering Batman! How about simplifying that solution with image-based backup software. Macrium Free or if you have some bucks to spend Acronis is easier and a bit more polished.
Didn't the users notice the significant performance hit when wrapping their whole desktop in a VM?
I hired a technician recently BECAUSE of his many years of customer service/phone support experience. It shows that he's been able to put up with a lot, work hard on his communication and that he wants to move up. He's worked circles around my now ex-business partner and has been an awesome employee.
If you can prove solid work ethic, tangible knowledge and you interview well you should be a desirable candidate. So either these companies are underestimating the value of your previous experience, or they're not telling you the real reasons they're not hiring you.
That doesn't surprise me.
I put a question into them to see if the same cap affects our business class connection. Haven't heard anything back yet.
We signed up with Comcast at our office because of the high bandwidth, we're an IT shop and download a lot of distros, Windows Updates for customers machines, use VoIP heavily, Pandora, etc. We'll easily go over this cap if it's the same for business class.
There are a great number of tools, thanks for that recommendation for Windows. I personally recommend doing this at the gateway level using a Linux firewall or pfSense and bandwidthd.
While it's fine and dandy to monitor your own bandwidth, what happens when Comcast says you hit 250GB and bandwidthd is showing 150GB? With no official, transparent meter from the service provider the customer is never right.
So Comcast customers need to homebrew their own bandwidth monitor to see if they're nearing their cap each month? Pretty hefty consequences when you are not provided with an official way of measuring your own usage.
