Hi Everyone, 

As always after a move I was going through old stuff and found my lucky winner post from 2017. At the time on the Veeam Forums there was a contest to win a trip to VeeamON 2017 in New Orleans.. I was not sure whether to post or not. Fear of being laughed at or ridiculed was strong, but luckily I had managed to make a fool of myself so often during my schooling years the phobia had somewhat lessened! In short folks don’t be shy and get creative! You never know where it may get you.

Here is the poem that I wrote about Veeam:

 

A good morning starts with coffee and cream
while viewing a backup report that is colored in green.

There was a time when nothing of the sort would be seen
Those were the bad old backup days before the arrival of Veeam

Broken restores will break an Admin's spleen
But by using Veeam one's health remains keen

No backup operator wants to face an angry user who turns mean
Instead grateful elation is what we see in our dreams

So if you want your engine moving forward at full steam

I have but three words for you from me and my Team:

Veeam, Veeam Veeam!!!

NOLA 2017 was my first VeeamON as they paid my way and started my path to Vanguard status.  Great event and experience it was for sure.

Veeam Veeam Veeam I can hear them all scream/

A dream scene in Green with the 100 team/

From a summit in Prague doing summersaults in the fall/

But we stay on our feet never defeated at all/

MVPs, Legends and Vanguards/

Emcee sessions, tech lessons and-blogs/

Big shoutout to rickatron never know what trip he on

All across the globe tech show, then quick, he’s gone

Madi and Safiya by his side make the team strong

Radical Risellence thats the “chicka chicka” theme song

In the community forums on this beautiful morning

Peaceout for now check out my new veeam song for more man!

 

 

@Geoff Burke VeeamOn 2017 was where it all started. My first VeeamOn conference and my first VMCE course and exam. Look where we are now!

and first time getting lost in a wedding procession on Canal street and surviving. And to think we were both at training the next day!! That is Legendary stuff

I think it was the fact that I was allowed to expense that first lunch which had a slight disorienting effect, plus the Southern USA heat for us cold loving Canadians :) 

Obviously environmental factors were solely at play
