Regarding; Rhy Thornton
To whom it may concern,
IT professionals are a dime a dozen today. The fact is that computers, networks, and the internet have come to
dominate every area of our lives. Americans spend on average 11 hours a day with electronic media. Another study
by Ofcom, suggested adults spend 15 hours and 45 minutes awake each day. And 45 percent of that time is spent
using technology. That’s almost 7 hours a day.
These numbers will only climb as our young grow up with this fast paced electronic world. It’s critical for all
organizations to have well-trained IT staff to support these technologies. The trick is to find people who truly love
working with technology. And that possess a sense of balance, so your company or organization isn't buying the
“newest advancements” without a real solid business or practical use case for the new advanced technology.
As you interview candidates, you’re looking for sharp-minded individuals with a passion for computers and
networking. You’ll want them to have a well-rounded understanding of all types of technology platforms, software,
hardware and the security policies to ensure the data is always safe and secure.
You’ll find many people with the necessary knowledge. Hiring the wrong person can open your organization up to
all sorts of liability. Technical people know most company management teams are unfamiliar with computer
networks. This unfamiliarity leaves the technician with opportunities to use the company network for their personal
gains. Or to exploit the privacy of the network users aka- company staff.
Hiring the right person can have the exact opposite effect. An IT professional with a high degree of character and
competence will share in complete openness, the plan for the network management. And provide documentation of
the state of the security policy of the system, continually evaluate new technologies to ensure a real need and the
actual benefit to the organization before the investment. This kind of IT professional is what you’ll find in a guy like
Rhy Thornton.
I have worked with Rhy and have found him to be one of the most trusted IT people I’ve ever had the opportunity to
work alongside. He’s always proven to be a “straight shooter” and a “tell it like it is” guy. I would highly recommend
Rhy for any company, educational institution, or organization as their Network Engineer or Administrator.
