Journal popoutman's Journal: New job, and I have a life!

Well, I started my new position in the middle of March, to become a systems administrator/network engineer/staff support person in a company of 6 people.

The company builds a client/server product for media playback and central control. It's called Sentiera. http://www.sentiera.com/

It is good to be part of a company that is reasonably well established, stable and has a great product that customers want. It's really good to be involved in the R&D of the next version of the product, developed in-house too.

I've been having some pain and suffering with the previous employer, getting the holiday pay due, and getting the relevant end-of-employment documents as well. My god, but it is difficult to get my money out of them!

Overall I now have a life. I cycle to work most days, I have 3 hours a day of time that I am no longer spending commuting, and I am preparing for my summer holiday kayaking in the French Alps.
