Then there was time..

Then there was time that seem to evade the very best of those that could control it. As soon as the sun shines one day rain and clouds visit the next. Still I am here now having two businesses of my own launched, now I am working on a third. Also met an amazing person today that has their own business as well. I hope time will show rewards that we both can apply to our basket of life.

BTW good to see you all again.

Training, who needs training?

,

I started a new position with this company and have been going through training for some time now. To be exact since May 29th. Yea I know that is a ton of training, the however of the whole is that I have more tools within my (experience) belt of knowledge that I will be more of an assest to the company.

There is more that I need to report on however due to training I will have to detail that all out later on. It is Thursday have a good weekend if I dont talk to you before then.

I have started rolling that stone.

There are a lot of things going on now that make life not near as dull as it has been. Then there is the choice one has to make. If life is dull then the person is full of life. However if life is full then the person becomes dull. Where do we draw that line to become life full and social full? That is a hard thing to try and figure out.

Either way here are just some of the things going on in my life as of now. I have started my own company. You can follow the link and check it out. (Link: Terry Davis Consulting (dot) com) That business I do computer repairs, web design and web hosting.

Then there is the whole linux movement that is taking storm now. I am part of the ubuntu LoCo teams, you can find more information on that by clicking this link: ubuntu-us-ok. That journey is just starting out but so far we have some good team mates. I will be posting what we have going on there, on this blog from time to time.

Hey guess what? I have missed everyone. I hope that things are going good for you all. If you need anything or just want to shout at someone I am here. Talk with you more later on.

Transparency why can't we live like that?

I have gotten some insight on a few things over the last few days. One of the main things that I have noticed is that people hide a lot of stuff. In any commitment be it friendship, courtship, business, or even marriage why do people always try to hide things from the other that they are building a commitment with?

Why can't people just be transparent? What is there to hide? Unless you are only using those people to benefit yourself in one manner or another. Let us look over an example of what I am talking about.

We will use two business partners to reveal this that is spoken. We will have business man one (bm1) and business man two (bm2). Now lets say that bm1 and bm2 decided to join together in a business relationship. Now these two talk everyday on how to make the business more than anything out there.

They both share ideas, and try to improve where they are at. Now where the issue is, lies within here. Bm2 while pretending to be a loyal partner is speaking to others trying to better themselves. Now they are not committing to any of the others, but are leading them on as if trying to make sure there will be another avenue, for the just in case factor.

Now my question is why can't bm2 be transparent and be honest with bm1? Why do two people that are friends, not be transparent showing their honesty and loyalty? Why would anyone want to put in to jeopardy the very thing that they have worked so hard to achieve?

Why would one sit in front of the other making commitment statements to reiterate their loyalty while at the same time hiding their hunt for something other? Why can't two people no matter what the relationship, be transparent? Why can't they just work together for the same common goal that brought them together?

Transparency why can't we live like that in modern society?

Where is that pause button?

Have you ever had a list of things to do and it seemed that you would never get them done cause there just wasn't enough time in the day to complete all the tasks? Well that is what I am running into now. I work long hours at my job, and then I come home and want to work on my own company. Somewhere in there I need to spend time with my wife.

I just wish there was a pause button to where I could get more done, or something. No I am not wishing for something like clicked. I also need time to study so I can get some certificates under my belt. I need time so I can get more involved with xubuntu. I don't know though, maybe one needs to stop write down everything on their plate, and see if there is a way to trim down the tasks? Maybe, but then when would one get a chance to complete the items they want to do?

I leave this with you to decide, try to come up with a way that I can keep everyone happy, accomplish all my certificates that I need, and be useful to the open source community.

Where did the time go?

,

It seems like it was just the other day when I posted my last post. However once I looked at the date today I realized that it has been sometime since I have wrote anything. I have been very busy with creating my own company, working for a fortune 50 company, and trying to make life the best that it can be.

I will post more about my company in another post here later in the week. I can tell you this though I created it to accomplish a bunch of tasks, however since I moved to a position within another company I have to remove some of the tasks that I started with. Which is fine, however before I go into detail on what my company does or does not do, I have to do some refining. I have missed everyone and I am glad to be able to post back to the community like before.

work, did someone call in?

Well they said that the business I work for was going to be closed today, so I had a good evening out and went to bed a bit late. Morning shown herself with the phone yelling its tones in my ear bringing forth life. So I answered and it was work saying hey you coming in today? I mentioned the memo bout being closed and the voice replied, oh well that changed so come on in.

After showing up the person in charge of this newly changed idea of being open says to me, well since we did tell you we were going to be closed you can go home if you like........so home is where I went.


Bye Bye Billy

I have moved from windows OS to linux. The only thing that was keeping me using it was the games that I play. I have thought about it and think it is time to get away from the insanity that windows is becoming. I can code and do graphics all in linux, using screem, gimp, and a few other tools. I can also continue with my networking studies with the open source tools that are avail. (nmap, etc)

I have tried this a few times before but man, the world has bent down and worshiped microsoft, the reason I say that is that most programs (games and design) are made for windows only. As long as I have something to play my music (xmms) and some editing tools I am good.

I am using xubuntu for the os (severly tweaked), xmms blended with shoutcast for music. I am using screem for css,xhtml, web coding. gimp and inkscape for the graphics, and of course my fav browser Opera for all net functions.

Now I just wish I would hear something from Norway concerning my app that I sent in smile I have a friend that put in for some programming and he is getting sent a project to do. I would just love to work for something that I love, that is coding, graphics, and opera. hrrmmm time will reveal I guess.

*btw if you are tired of windows do some research on ubuntu it is user friendly and well it will do most everything you do on windows, cept the modern day games. (bah blizzard you sux, hehe) Oh well talk with you all soon. Stay Opera bound!

-to long, yet reads to much

It has been over two months since I have posted on here, a lot has happened. I met a gurl, she required my heart and then she abandoned me. Life has a funny way from time to time in teaching us lessons. Then I met another woman, and she hands me her heart, but for some reason I cannot accept it. I have started eating healthier, drink less beer, and have thought about exercise....yes life just choose interesting ways into making us become things that we rather not say, or show may be a better term there.


I have missed all of you the reader(s), I have sprung forth from my dwelling, torch in hand. I will shine again.this I share with you.


It could happen

I applied for a position at this company, doing some web coding, with some graphic work juice. I hope they contact me. I have been wanting to work for this company some time now. Well at least over a year ago. I have a friend that is going to MU and is about to graduate and when we were chugging some brews down back then he told me he thought about going there (this company) to work. So I have watched and waited. Now I apply and called friend cause heard he was moving to same area and was telling him I applied and he was lol so did I but he is going for a bit more tech savy chair than what I am bigsmile

Anyway if everything works out I could be soon living somewhere else and working for a great company. I would share with you the name of this exclusive group of people, but I think I will wait till I hear if it is a go or not. Then I will rage on rooftops and still sit from time to time to have a beer. It could happen...
