Title: ARG! WORK!
Post by: RadioFreeSeaLab on February 15, 2007, 07:23:51 AM
I just opened my email today at work, and I was CC'd on a message from my CEO to our T1 carrier that we're not renewing our contract when it terms in April.
Seems like something I should've known about, being that I am the IT manager.  Maybe even involve me in that sort of decision.
ARG!
That is all.

dasmi,
Are you planning on replacing the line with something else?  Whenever we try to get a new T1 line here at the office it usually takes at least 5 weeks.  We're looking at putting in a fifth T1 (already have one data and three voice) soon.

Yeah, he probably should have at least talked to you at some point.

Yes, we're replacing Telepacific with another carrier.  I know, it takes time.  I'm annoyed.

Hey, you're lucky he cc'd you & you didn't find out 01APR and assume it was a joke.

Why have an IT mgr or any support mgr type if you don't tap them for advice in their area of expertise?
