Not for me BF, this has always been Corporate HQ, the 9/11 really only effected the Executives and Reporters. I've been at this site since I started here.
 
Glad to hear you and yours were safe!

What do you do for Dow Jones?
 
I'm a Senior Operations Analyst. Satellite Communications;Network Communications (lan/wan), Mainframe operations, and world wide (Helpdesk support 00:00 to 07:00am only, not my full shift. that dept isn't 24 hour coverage so their calls transfer over to me).
 
Interesting. How much do they teach you about Export Controls?
 
Very cool Firestorm!!! I think if I ever return back to the city it will be back in the Music Business!!!

These cheap bastards don't teach me anything anymore. It's more like,, here is a new product, learn it and use it. This company is going to the dogs I swear. Oh please don't get me started.
 
You were in the music biz Dave? Kewl what did you do?
 
Are you ignoring me firestorm??? :(
 
Oh never Butterfly,, I responded to you sweetie. look above 2 posts hun or i'll just repeat.... they don't teach me anything anymore. Haven't been to a training course or seminar in years. they just throw us in the fire.
 
Ok then...

Just curious... did you know that Satellite technology is controlled by the U.S. State Dept.

Which means that if you help certain individuals from certain countries solve problems realting to controlled technology the you would be performing a defense service which you can't do unless your company has a license to do so from the State Dept.

Now that I've said that... the level of assistance you are giving through the help line probably isn't detailed/deep enough to qualify calling it a defense service.

Just thought I'd share :D Besides, as large as Dow Jones is... I'm positive they have an Export Control dept. It may be in the legal dept. But I can't imagine any company doing business internationally and not know the laws.
 
BF, All our satellite communications are all US cities. they are our Print Centers such as Palo Alto, Riverside, Orlando, Dallas, South Brunwick, Denver, La Grange, Chicago to name a few. Our overseas communication are all WAN AT&T Circuit connections.
 
That's good to know!

What's your companies policy on hiring Foreign Nationals? And I'm not referring to Resident Aliens.
 
I can't say for sure Butterfly but I do know we are an equal opportunity employer. I don't know of any Foreign nationals here we obviously employee Foreign Country residents for our foreign projects. Such as Hong Kong, Pakastan, England, Russia, Brussels,Belguim just to name a few.
 
I'm sure you are all covered. I'm just a big fan of training/education. That way if I train them and they screw up then it's on them.

Anyway... I'm everyone else will find this totally boring...
 
I dont' find it boring at all. Your way of thinking is how it should be. Here on other hand,, they give us new products, expect us to self train and if you screw up it's still on us. go figure.
 
Well guys, it's been a hoot but I gotta get home... don't want to miss CSI!!!

Later!
 
Good night Butterfly it was a pleasure talking to you!!!

Started as in intern in Orlando at what was Cheetah records, CDG, Inc. (Distibution)...Got hired and then went to NYC to the big boys at that time... Mercury Records, Island Records as an assistant in the Marketing, Promotion and Sales... all different Depts. at seperate intervals... a lot of layoffs took place and I went back to FLA to go back to school. Quit in the middle and joined the NARAS group (Grammy Awards) in Miami Beach branch. Was a contribuiting writer for the newsletter etc... and then got ill from Appendicitis (It bursted inside) Recuperated and started liking computers and back in school for that now.

Whew... that was a mouthful but I will always have a passion for the industry as I have submitted my application to NARAS again so I hope to do some more functions and get in on the elite group. So that'll mean less PW'ing! Ha Ha Ha!
 
Thump thump.
