I used to be one of two IT people in my department. The other guy quit suddenly and moved to another state. As of last week, I'm flying solo and
responsible for everything that has electricity flowing through it--and the stuff he was supposed to be taking care of has not, in fact, been taken care of for
some time. I've found machines in storage that he was supposed to set up last summer, boxes never opened, while a full third of the lab machines he was
'maintaining' won't even start up. It's unlikely a replacement will be hired before the semester starts--and it all needs to be fixed before
them. I've been 'approved for overtime.'

So, probably be around less for a bit.
