First Day on the Job

  My desk! 


Off we go / 6-23-2020

I didn't waste anytime today getting my hands dirty. One of the Chromebooks supplied to the students was returned with a broken screen, but a new screen was sent along with it by a parent. More complex repairs like these are usually skipped because of the amount of time involved. After two attempts, I got the laptop to fire up after discovering that the battery has to be completely disconnected and the power button pressed for ten seconds for this particular model to take a charge. This is the final troubleshooting tip for this problem on Dell website, luckily I suspected the battery and bypassed several of the steps. 



Mt. Baker School district includes Kindel Elementary in Maple Falls Washington. From the main district office, we made a trip to Kindel and made some room visits that were on a list of ticketed requests. Some of the tasks included removing and replacing a graphics card on a machine running a projector, setting up workstations, and checking a switch closet to establish that the correct port was used for one of the rooms' stations.
