Planning...Packing Off

As expected, this few weeks is the peak period for me as our bridgae is preparing for an overseas exercise in Nov. For the staff officers, they have been planning from Mon to Wed while we are working non-stop on the new Exchange server and wiping of laptops. Besides that, I have a also conducted trials on the server but it faced a lot of hiccups and the engineers had to come down for the whole of last week.

Besides that, we worked past midnights and all credits should go to my guys for helping me even though time was really tight. By Thu, we have already wiped out 30 laptops and preparation for the rest of the stores in ready for the crating on Fri. It was major scene at the basketball court on Fri as we layed out all the equipment at the basketball for the Australia inspector to inspect. All the days we spent cleaning the equipment had been put into this test and they were very strict on this issue as Australia is meant to be a clean country with great landscapes. The most heaviest equipment with have is the HA server which weight up to 300kg. We have to activate the forklift to assist us.

After sealing the containers, it was down back to normal routine as we have to maintain computers in the bridgae and my normal planning that leads us to this overseas exercise. Today I am the Duty Officer and my first on a Sunday. I am taking leave on Wed to go NTU for a talk on the finacial scheme available.

To Darling: Hope you are doing fine and put ur best all the way leading up to ur exams. Luv & Miss u.
