I am set to move into the new project management role that has been left for me by a colleague who is going on holidays. The project will be managing the replacement of Server Hard Drives across the South of the State in order to upgrade current Network Storage capacity for all the Servers within my region.

This position comes with an elevated pay bracket, some guaranteed overtime (most of the swaps will be occurring after 5:30pm, and therefore will require me to be working overtime in order to complete the tasks). This means that I am now moving back from District to Information Division, and finally getting back into Technical Matters, albeit as a Manager rather than a Tech. Once the project is complete, I fear moving back into my old Technology Officer position, as this will severely hit my income.

While talking to my Boss on a ride home I have heard that there may be some more positions opening up at my current pay level (the level before I go to the Project) which will suit my needs a little more comfortably. Hopefully after all this is done I will have finished my Study, and be working on some more Certifications, potentially my CCNA and my other MCSA/MCSE exams.

Either way, once my Study is put to rest I should have some time to concentrate on Certifications or time to put into Projects such as NGDN or my Consultancy Business. My experience in so many varied areas of IT give me quite some scope to play with for potential business opportunities. By the time I have enough free time to submit to a business I should have all the necessary Certifications as well as experience in the Field to Consult on Networks, Servers, Directory Service Options, and similar.

Cheers, Chris.
