Ah.I still have my Remedy Orientation CD. "Mom" doing the intro and narration. Learning about the "OHG"! And of course the Tenets.
It's awesome.

The engineer I got on the phone worked with me for many hours to build that item (as the people who know me know I like to push things to the breaking point). When I joined Remedy in 2000 (after being a customer since 1996), one of the support engineers gave me a box of printouts of my issues. They also took me out to lunch as a team. One other item when you joined the company a week before your first day on the job you got a box of gifts. There was candy and bubbles, some hot nuts and other fun items. Also in that box was a cd. The cd talked about the goal of Remedy. Also I did a Google search and found this" At Remedy Corp., a software company based in Mountain View, fun is practically an art form.

I even have 3 RAC shits. When BMC acquired Remedy (at least for the 3 years I was there) the fun stayed As far as my 3.0 docs, my wife made me clean up the basement a year ago and everything from 3.2 to 6.3 were sent to the dump (only my electronic copies starting at 4.0 I was allowed to keep). Peregrine management has helped me work towards my degree (I use them as how not to do things, how to cheat and lie), also they let me go in 2002. I hired on to BMC in 2003 and worked with them until 2006 (the release of ITSM 7) and I saw that they somewhat understood Remedy. I would like to have seen Remedy stay Remedy, but from my view the BMC deal was a great move. I would like to buy a drink for the person at BMC who thought up that deal.

I'm curious, how many folks started Remedy by just reading the docs, or did most people go out and get formal training.

I wrote the help-desk app for the network ops center, as well as configuration forms, certification forms, lots of stuff. Back then it was a good front-end for a database. We worked with voice communications, so the FCC required a lot of auditing, all of which had to be written. I got into Remedy as a C programmer who didn't have a project at the moment. I was horrified to find no Else statements built into the system. I can't remember when that came along, but it was quite an advance in programming. We worked with HP-UX and an early version of Oracle. Installation of just about anything was a bear, but once all the ducks were lined up it went well. Ever since then I've worked with the ARS. Now it's quite sophisticated in comparison with the old days. On Sun, Jun 28, 2009 at 4:39 PM, Daniel Bloom <danielbl...@rogers.com> wrote: >From a bit of googling ..... Remedy Corp.
