Working at Alachua County EPD!

Wow, a Buttfreckle doesn't get much time to rest and relax! While I arrived Wednesday night after Beth's boxing class (she was shocked to see me - she thought it would be her 'adopted' Freckle Droftrah instead), we headed off to work Thursday morning.

One of her projects was making "hot" (very odd term) some ports at the Alachua County EPD department. Of course I went along to help.
She wanted to walk over to EPD but rode over with her coworker, Kenny. She planned a few things like help Erika get ready for a webinar, bring some laptops over and those ports. I wanted to see what all this jazz was about. But that place, it was neat! 
This is inside the closet place. 
Enough room for me to fit! 
Places for plugs.
A swing for me! Freckles love fun!!! These are called patch cables. You plug them into a thing called a "switch". Then, she said 'people can sign onto the network and work.' She tested the connections and they all work. Way to go Beth!

Before we had left for EPD, she took a picture with me and Captain Calamari. He's a present for a coworker. Two colorful and cool guys! I had a great day and there's more to come! See you all later!
