I have worked in a couple of companies before, so here you go. 1) Create a ticket logging process. *ALL* users must use it. Use a web enabled tool like RT(Check in google) to make it simple. This will help you to justify your work to management. 2) Prepare and maintain an inventory list of all servers in a document. Inform the management and users that no updates will be done without consulting you., since you are the system administrator! 3) Hire an intern to do part time, and work over the weekends
Hi,
Your post is excellent and hereby I putforth a business proposal. I am from India, and would like to open a gas station(Liquified petroleum gas) on the outskirts of Bangalore. I will need a capital of Indian Rupees 35 lakhs(Approx.71000 dollars). This is not a joke, and I am seriously considering this for some time.
I had posted this request at Slashdot some time back, but did it as an AC. Yes, I was afraid of fellow posters' atacks.. I am confident now.
