TVA yes, but all of the power grid is taking notice the past few years. I can't go into much detail fo obvious security reasons, but TVA is developing quite a few new standards.

We do some work with TVA. Your IT people are painful to deal with. :)

They make people in Knoxville drive to Chattanooga to have software installed. Total bull****. Most inefficient people I've ever heard of.

I'd suggest you look into development given your current skill set.

How do you feel about Nashville? Also, could you BS your way into a Helpdesk job?

BS' ing is never an issue. Relocating is not high on my priority list though. Spent my whole life moving and was hoping to set up shop in Knoxville. Not completely averse though.

That is the government for you. There is no such logic. I just make sure to call them at any hour with the most mundane of problems I might be having. I love getting them out of bed.

Did you help write stuxne* (don't even know if I'm allowed to type it).

I am not in IT, but I deal directly in Cyber Security assets with part of my job. They keep dumping more shat on me all the time. So I like to make their job difficult when I can.:)

I'd suggest you try to get a job at Dell in Nashville, preferably working with one of the government contracts they have. Might score yourself some clearance and they have a tuition reimbursement program. Four-five years of experience, a degree, and some government clearance will open some doors for you.

I use to work there, and as such I know a ton of people there. If you want to shoot your resume to Gmail (Aavoxx@) I can possibly offer some assistance.

I may end up asking your assistance on that. I gotta ponder on that Nashville aspect though. Like I said, not averse, just not keen on it. Thanks.

If I could move back I'd do it. I lived in Murfreesboro. It was the ****.

You could hang out with heart and 3!

There is very little in this area to break into at an entry level. You might try TekSystems and/or PremierSystems, but that's hit or miss stuff.

Definitely something to ponder on. Murfreesboro the place to be?

I think so. Cool college town.

Lots of chicks. I lived in an apartment complex full of college kids. One of the chicks like to walk around outside topless at night. I enjoyed it.

They found a meth lab at that place recently tho, so I wouldn't advise living there.
