As I alluded to in the Hope I didn’t burn too many bridges post, I have left HostMySite and began working at a new job. The new position is a Systems Administrator for a media relations company, with my primary responsibility managing the cluster of Linux servers.

On the one hand, it sucks to leave HostMySite. The work environment was great, there were a lot of people I truly considered friends, and it was a great experience. It was my first real experience working in a world class data center, which was invaluable. Plus, I got the chance to learn from some really bright and accomplished people in this field. And, most importantly, I was working with people I honestly considered friends.

The new position is the position I was working towards, however. The ability to be working as a linux sysadmin day in and day out is invaluable, and the field we’re in is exciting. I’m looking forward to the job responsibilities. I’ve got a lot of work to do, and a lot to learn, but I’m up for the challenge.

I wish everyone at HostMySite the best, and hope they all keep in contact. And I’m still looking forward to shooting everyone that goes in airsoft!
