Just...stuff. Time of year, for one. And the fact that I'm really supposed to start earning my keep at work - i.e. getting enough billable hours from clients to pay my way, which would be about 40% of my time, and right now...about all I know how to do is PC stuff and there just isn't enough of that to cover that much of my time. And the fact that the internet policy there really means I shouldn't so much as check weather on-line, but I don't have stuff to do constantly, so I'm tempted all the time. It's either that or sit staring at nothing at this point - there are only so many manuals and such available to read. Also stressed because my boss is going on a fairly long leave in a few months and I'm supposed to be ready to stand in, but I'm *not* a network admin person really, don't understand stuff like VPN setup and router configuration, and he's not the greatest at teaching and I dunno the right questions to ask - about that or anything else.

So I'm just kinda feeling down and useless.

I'm supposed to pull 6 billable hours a day ... I average around 4.5. What counts as billable?

Hmmm ... does the internet policy allow for accessing work-related information? Like VPN instructionals and Cisco coding online?

A Cisco cert wouldn't hurt ya ...
