New Adventures In Life

Well, yesterday I started a new job.  Looks to be challenging, which is always good.  As with every large company there are politics and upheavals (trying to figure out which battles to avoid is always fun).  I haven't had much time to blog with the new schedule, adjustments and other things. 

I recently started another new adventure, coaching my 5 year old's flag football team.  Think your job is hard?  Try working with 20, 5 and 6 year olds for an hour twice a week.  My appreciation for a desk and a computer has been renewed!!  God bless those kindergarden teachers! 

Take it easy, I'll be bloggin soon,

Zach

I'm a bit odd, but then again, everybody is a bit... I think they call that normal...

Alright, so this is my fist Blog and it contains nothing of technical interest, my appologies for that, but I'll start soon enough. I want to thank Donny Mack for the site and the chance to share my random thoughts.  

A little about myself, I am a DBA Consultant with a company called Scalability Experts where we specialize in scalability (obviously from the name) and performance of databases and database servers.  I have been either a DBA or involved with database tuning, maintenance, performance or whatever for the past 10 years.  I am looking forward to sharing the technical information that I have gathered over the years as well as I bit of non-technical everyday life stuff from time to time. 

Keep an eye out I'll be posting soon.

Keep on keep'in on,

Zach
