Cutris Testifies Before Senate Subcommittee

Cutris Testifies Before Senate Subcommittee
UnAssociated Press
October 7, 2009

Cutris testified before a senate subcommittee today, detailing how people employed in technology are not valued, or respected as much as the so-called, “professionals” employed by the same organizations that they work at.

I am not allowed to voice my displeasure when someone ruins an installation or causes problems by blatantly disregarding basic technology guidelines!” He continued by saying, “There is a ‘culture’ in the workplace that technology work is not as important as what the ‘professionals’ do. Recently, I contributed to a report and everyone’s name was listed in the credits except mine—even though they used my contribution, line-for-line verbatim!”

The senators seemed unconvinced by Cutris’ argument, leading to this outburst,
“What if I unplugged the vinculum? Would you senators know what to do???”
Cutris was then censored and escorted by security out of the senate chambers.

You glorified janitors need to learn your place.

Go vacuum and mop the fans in the CPUs and let the real professionals get back to ruling the workplace.

"Googoo!" Are you going to cry now??? Are you a "real professional???" Your profile is blank for some reason. By-the-way, "mopping" a CPU would not be a good idea. But please, give it a try! Just make sure it is plugged in when you do.
Ha ha! Thanks for the comment!

SPRUCE Project

We were lucky enough to be given a tour of the SPRUCE Project in the Chippewa National Forest, North of Grand Rapids, Minnesota. Our tour guide was W. Robert Nettles IV, SPRUCE Project Operations Manager at Oak Ridge National Laboratory . I went into the site fueled primarily by my lifetime of interest in the natural environment; as well as my interest from volunteering as a park ranger in the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge. However, by the time I was done, my interest in technology, from over 10 years as an IT professional, was thoroughly peaked! Definitely off the "beaten path," in a spruce bog in Northern Minnesota, this site boasts an incredible array of scientific equipment that is supported by an amazing technological infrastructure! There are control sites and some of the chambers have added heat, carbon dioxide, or both. A lot of equipment and experimental testing goes on 24/7, 365 days per year. These guys know their stuff. The 10 chambers are connected ...
