New job same direction
On Nov. 15 I started a new job as Systems Administrator for Meet Minneapolis. This is the official visitor and convention association for the City. As the systems administrator I work with about 75 end users. There are also 10 server on site and about 30 servers off site. The office itself has a nice Cisco VoIP system and about 2 terabytes of data storage. It’s a mix of desktops including PC, Macs, and Thin Clients.
I have found that my job is something of a status quo for the types of positions I gravitate towards. In this case it has to do with my passion for social media and how it can integrate into the business. This isn’t my primary role but I can’t seem to help the fact that I see business processes and I see how social media can integrate into the process.
Like most companies this one has a mix of people from those who have limited computer skills to those who are technologically savvy. However, most of the people don’t have social media savvy yet. They have heard the term but don’t really understand it. This is what I find in most companies still. This is also what allows me some inroads to describe the use of social media and how it can affect business processes.
