Ken Mosher:  

My Jobs I've had 3 jobs since graduating college. First, I worked at Aetna in Hartford for 7.5 years doing Novell network support. From there to The Garlinghouse Company as their IT Manager for about 7 years. My staff varied in size between 1 and 3. Aside from the usual managerial stuff of budgets, staff supervision and reporting to the president my main job functions were software development and network administrator. From there to a consultant with Signal Systems (who became Veridian who became General Dynamics) on a contract with the CT Dept of Public health on a Web project called the Health Alert Network. From there to a temp consulting job in Brooks Brothers' IT department reworking part of their special-order intranet application. Brooks Brothers (part of Retail Brand Alliance) is not a fun place to work. In the short time I worked on that project 3 of their full-time software developers left the company.

I had liked my time there very much and I had applied for the job of managing the PC lab. I didn't get that job and then Aetna gave me my raise on my 1-year anniversary and it was 18.5%. I was now priced out of ever working for UConn unless I wanted to take a huge salary cut. Is anyone surprised to hear that I don't like change, especially big changes like new jobs and moving? While I went through 3 jobs I kept living in Willimantic for 16 years! My Pets Hmmm, this listing was old so I'd better update it... Since the last update I'm on my third cat. I waited a few years after my cat of 15 years died and then adopted a really *great* kitten from the Rockville pound - gray tiger with white feet and double-pawed on the front. I named him Spike. What a hunter! He killed mice, voles and chipmunks galore. In the end, however, he was hunte...Expand for more
