Okay Lincoln/Omaha/Kearney folks, anyone know of any companies looking for a Business Analyst with IT experience? Got my house ready to sell, now I just need a gig so I can move the family to Nebraska.

@Danimal thanks, I’ll check it out.

So...has anyone heard of this Onion-esque, Nebraska-centric faux news site before?:

DirecTV Now Streaming TV service is $10/mo. for three months for their base package--good enough to watch 63 of the NCAA Tournament games.

Great price if you already have a streaming device and want to try out the service.- Show previous comments 2 more

@knapplc Minimum two years of indentured servitude.

@Enhance Incorrect. You can cancel any time after the three months are up or during the three months, penalty free. You're probably thinking of terrestrial DirecTV.
-
@knapplc they also have the Apple TV 4K deal going on as well--prepay three months of service at regular price, get an Apple TV 4k 32GB sent to you for "free".
And with this package too, you can cancel any time after your three prepaid months are up.

I don't know what I'm more excited for: Avengers 3: Infinity War or the Spring Game.

Heads up: eBay has a 20% off anything coupon for today only, $100 max.
PSPRING20
This coupon works on all specialty stores too, including Best Buy, Dyson, etc. Hell of a good deal if you shop there.

Considering the scope of the FBI's probe into NCAA Basketball players being paid and the top teams from the B1G being implicated...does this mean if we return all of our kids, we're a favorite to win the conference next year?

Thanks to everyone who voted me in as WR. I'm proud to be part of our new corps and will endeavor to grow the most porn-starish of post-Westerstache porn-star mustaches, or my name isn't Ronald Jeremiah.

The whispers around Microsoft buying EA, Valve, and/or PU (along with other game companies) are deafening.

Difference is EA is looking for xbox exclusives and EA is multi platform games. This will not benefit them as they would lose the licensing from the NFL, NHL etc if they were to lock them into just the Xbox. Valve is all PC so they could pick and choose the exclusives from there and PUBG could easily be made into an exclusive.
-
You meant Microsoft right? And yeah, they’re looking for exclusives. And Madden and FIFA could easily become exclusive, and as long as Microsoft guarantees a set level of profit/royalties it’s all good.
Then again, look at Minecraft and Mojang—they could buy EA, and keep pumping out FIFA and Madden multiconsole, but make everything else exclusive. Battlefield, Anthem, Star Wars KOTOR 3, Dragon Age...all could go exclusive no problem
-
I did mean MS, yes.
As for exclusive the franchises I mentioned above will never happen, NFL contract even states will be on all platforms simutaneously and I'm sure the NHL and FIFA have similar licensing contracts (former IT guy at a company EA screwed over that made C&C). Some of their IP, yes they could but the majors not so much.

Wow...you can tell who the old-school, anti-expansion B1G folks are on these BTN broadcasts. You’d think our basketball team was last in conference and playing at Iowa considering how much they gushed over Iowa tonight. :-|

BTN’s Dave Revsine has been off the air lately...now we know why:

Thank you for being a friend...

Question--how's the IT job market in Lincoln/Omaha looking these days? I've heard conflicting reports from the friends I've talked to back home about the job market up there...and I've given serious consideration to moving back to Lincoln if I can find gainful employment.

Thanks everyone. I’m in the development and process side of things as a Senior Business Analyst for IT...so while I don’t directly code, I work on project/process/problem management for all the different groups involved with hardware/software deployments, from PCI/SOX compliance, Operations, Marketing, and Tech Support (among others).
In short, I wear enough hats day to day to start my own haberdashery.
-
Very familiar with the BA side. There are jobs out there. I suggest looking at a place like Lincoln Financial Group in Omaha. Plenty of contract work out there as well or some full time. Shoot me a message if you want some connections.
To answer your question there is some work in that realm. Not bubbling over like it is for Developers but I bet if you put your nose to the grindstone you could find something in 2-4 months. -
@Minnesota_husker thanks, I'll take you up on that offer in the very near future, if that's alright with you?
And thanks everyone for the info. This would be a big move for my family if I can pull it off--a big, yet positive one I would hope. Public schools are decidedly better in Nebraska than in Texas, so I'd primarily be doing this for my kids.
And season tickets.

I need help coming up with a six-character specialized Husker plate. I tried 'Frosty', Fro5ty', and 'Fro57y', but they're all taken.

@HuskerNBigD thanks, trying that now. Completely overlooked doing that.

So...if Nebraska fans have to choose between going to K.C. for the Volleyball NC match or a non-conference basketball game vs. Kansas in Lincoln...the fans will choose Volleyball, right?

Nothing more infuriating than your outside box for internet going out and being told it will be a week before it’s repaired. Screw Frontier FiOS.

Wow...Scott Frost as our new HC *AND* Warner Bros. just removed Zach Snyder from making any more DC Comic movies! Looks like some of us have been exceptionally nice this year...

*looks up* Nebraska at #3 MSU, the same MSU team that looks better than half the NBA teams? When is opening day for Baseball again?
