| 06:26.37 | programmerq | Hello all. I'm currently updating my resume, and I'm not sure how to word the fact that I have root access on production machines, even though my title doesn't reflect that. |
| 06:26.47 | programmerq | What's the best way to indicate that? |
| 06:33.08 | Gate | put it in the job description, worded as something like "managed and maintained production servers" |
| 06:42.10 | programmerq | hmmm |
| 06:44.29 | Gate | thats what I would do, but my last job was changing positions so fast (my boss referred to me as his "fire" man) that I pretty much could write any description I wanted |
| 06:44.34 | programmerq | It's tricky because what I do with root isn't exactly that. I just fix very small, isolated issues that aren't (necessarily) a system-wide thing. Anything that's bigger than that is too big for me. I get no decision making power, but at the same time I do get the trust of wielding an unrestricted sudo. |
| 06:45.20 | Gate | hm, were the problems in a specific arena? like managing a particiular software stack or program to fix issues? |
| 06:45.50 | programmerq | we do shared hosting with cPanel |
| 06:46.11 | programmerq | so I'd get the issues where cPanel has tripped over itself and broken a single account |
| 06:46.37 | Gate | "Production issue resolution" |
| 06:47.01 | programmerq | hmm |
| 06:47.13 | programmerq | production server problem resolution |
| 06:47.14 | Gate | hm, maybe save that for the interview whwere you can qualify it? |
| 06:47.34 | programmerq | It's not really that big of a deal at the moment-- I'm just interviewing for a new position within the same company |
| 06:47.48 | programmerq | but they like resumes even though I'm already with the company. |
| 06:48.14 | Gate | cover letter? |
| 06:48.39 | programmerq | Maybe I'm just getting hung up on my title-- |
| 06:48.56 | programmerq | To me, a junior system admin is someone with no decision making power, but still has root. |
| 06:49.13 | programmerq | that's essentially me, but my title doesn't reflect that. |
| 06:49.23 | programmerq | maybe my idea of junior admin is wrong? |
| 06:51.48 | programmerq | meh, I guess I could just ask my supervisor what I should put. |
| 06:51.52 | programmerq | thanks for the input. :) |
| 06:52.14 | Gate | GL |
| 06:52.49 | programmerq | :) |
| 06:53.12 | Gate | sigh, database migrations take a fracking eternity |
| 07:03.38 | programmerq | how much data do you have to migrate? |
| 07:25.54 | Gate | largest table in the DB is adding columns. The database is only a dozen GB or so, nothing compared to the systems I have had to deal with in the past |
| 07:25.59 | Gate | this just feels slow |
| 07:27.08 | Gate | 55 minutes of migrations adding 4 columns. Sigh. |
