Representin’ two of my favorite brands - @Puppetize and @Delta - after they whisked me out of town to speak #ContinuousCompliance at #InfoTechLive… and are now bringing me safely home.

Check off another ‘first-class’ #DevOps adventure, both figuratively and literally.

@RUMCOQUI Met you at HyVee in WDSM and snapped a signed bottle after tasting - fantastic product! FYI, none of the links to your social media platforms work from the website (so had to manually track you down!). Would love to see the pictured drinks as recipes online!

Streaming the 1980 classic movie “Final Countdown” on Prime Video and it has just dawned on me that we are now more years (43) into the future since this movie was made than the number of years (39) the aircraft carrier “time jumped” into the past at the start of WWII. #GenX

@stevencpitcher Just make up a 16 digit number. 😂

@benwleon @WMCPA If you are anything like me, the first few times of presenting to a group were - let’s just call it - rough. But if you know your subject matter then I’m sure you rocked it. And every time you present, you will improve … so do it as often as you can! #Brave #IBMi

[Robin Tatam @robintatam]

An amazing first day @Perforce absorbing a library’s worth of information, and meeting hundreds of new people at the annual sales kickoff. Overwhelming? A little bit like drinking water from a fire hose… but then I run into the familiar face of @MikeyPEI. #SmallWorld #NewJob

Many may have heard about the senseless shooting death in Des Moines this week where two students lost their lives. If you would like to help, please use the link to support Gionni’s Family

@Delta Headed to Roatan, Honduras for the first time! Can’t wait to see y’all onboard.

It’s a fantastic Thursday! I’ve just been notified that I have been honored with selection as #IBMChampion for the 5th consecutive year! Thank you and congrats to the other amazing technologists I get to rub shoulders with in this program.

Te me I not the only person that hears the phrase “he seems like a nice guy” and immediately repeats the phrase with the nasal mocking voice of Richard (David Spade) from the cult-classic “Tommy Boy.”

[Robin Tatam @robintatam]

Yes, we changed our name to Fortra. No, we didn’t get acquired. Yes, I still slip up & say HelpSystems. No, we are NOT abandoning #IBMi. Yes, I have to change a lot of presentation material… So, why did we do it? Our new Fortra name better reflects our impressive security focus.

Text from wife: “can you record the movie called ‘A Christmas present’?”

Me: “Yep, I will just search the Dish guide for it”

Me, 10 Seconds later: 😳 😬 🤦‍♂️

[Robin Tatam @robintatam]

@Robert_Nettgen Thanks, Robert!

[Robin Tatam @robintatam]

On a product demo this morning with a large customer frustrated with a competing product. Determined quickly it involved a terminology disconnect and so provided clarity and info to help them. May help the competitor survive this time but I’d rather be transparent. #IBMChampion

Returning a rental car and the gas tank gauge still shows FULL even though you filled it 50+ miles ago. Do you fill it again?

#IBMi users .. I don’t care if you are running the original version of OS/400 from 1988, or the latest IBM i 7.5 from 2022… your users’ default permissions are ALLOW! Check the QCRTAUT system value NOW as this drives it all. If you see *CHANGE then a breach is likely easy.
