No disassemble Johnny 5

With little fanfare, I decided to dismantle my 5 pandaboard test rack.  The problem was not with the systems, but with my lack of time.  It has become too time consuming to maintain the infrastructure surrounding these and other arm platforms.  The only real reason I kept them online was to continue to improve my test automation skills, largely to prove that I do know how to develop automation testing, a bit of a sore point with my previous job.  I also used them to troubleshoot issues from the Ubuntu-arm community, but lately I feel that my work there continued to be disregarded and not wanted.

The good news is that I have taken this knowledge and applied it to projects at my current job, to (in my opinion) an overwhelmingly high level of praise.  I now have automated builds for one of the projects, and am working to expand that to full build/test/publish capabilities this week.

Still not sure about my long term outlook.  I have a lot of mixed feelings about Intel (bad history), and there are times when I feel that just being there drains my sole.  But, like all jobs I have worked at, I am giving it my all.  Kind of hard to work through the anxiety issues that keep coming up, along with my continued lack of self-confidence.  But it is a job, and the people I work with seem to like me.

Thanks, Al.  Of course the one skill that continues to flourish is my inane ability to do self-psychoanalysis.  Yay.
