Haaaahaha yeah ok buddy.

A band famous for not wanting anyone to record their shows, performing in a private arena, insists those people who are granted access to said private arena are checked for recording equipment before they are granted access, is neither a question of freedom or security.

Also jesus was this your first big rock show or what? Not being patted down would have been surprising.

The dude did say he was too wasted to socially function. It's not like he's saying he was all about standing up for some great ideal of personal freedoms.

Getting called when you're not oncall sucks, especially when you're just about to go to sleep and chilled out. Took me an hour to fix but about 3hours for my brain to chill out.

Vibratoni? Isn't he a soccerfootball player? I think he died on the pitch once but played on after a penalty was handed out.

I feel your pain. I have taken over a role that makes me the primary escalation point for the client I support. I am permanently on call. The team I look after are fairly awesome at looking after things, but I inevitably get three or four calls per week (minimum).

On the upside, my Annual Leave is untouched, as I have so much time in lieu building up.

GMG
"Qualified HP engineer guy" gets called to site to swap a failed disk in a RAID5 array in our clients SAN. He finds a second disk with a prefailure alert on it, and rather than call us to advise, he proceeds to pulls both disks simultaneously without noting the relative ports or serial numbers, and leaves site without calling to update us on any of this

Its going to be a long night, thanks engineer guy.

GMG that the (male) change of life kicks in after I have bought a Nespresso machine.

Ever wandered through an Airport shop looking for a quick tasty snack that has no Sodium? Near impossible I say. And dried Goji berries taste nothing like the dried strawberries that they look like.

If I ask nicely the local might get Amstel light on tap.

I still blame the inaction of EQC for this, and after a quick read of my OIA docs, I can see how!

I'm just dreading having to take him to possibly the vet - that's a cost that could literally break us at the moment.

<sigh>

He seems better this morning though...

When I was little my dad discovered a cat would everyday get into our warehouse and piss on various products so he trapped it, put it into a sack, bashed it over the head with a piece of 4x2 and threw it into the harbour. Problem solved. Are you a cat person Pixie?

Stupid hippy woman on Breakfast this morning used the word 'disingenius'. Now, she was referring to Nick Smith so maybe it was a deliberate malapropism.

Suggested a simple security change to prevent DISASTER-X happening last week. Customer knows best and goes into a 'don't tell me how to to my job you don't know what you are talking about' rant.

A week later and I'm working after hours to fix damage caused by DISASTER-X which came about partly because our suggestion was ignored.

Because some people have better things to be doing than working after hours? Especially on shit that was preventable.

Idiots who still don't realise that the give way rule has changed a while ago. This was just a plain T intersection. What the hell man?

Also, massive faggot (different car) driving a silver Peugot with the license plate LECOUP who likes to park in disabled parking spots so he doesn't get wet. Fucking arrogant french cunt.

My laptop is falling apart - not in some metaphorical sense but actually losing screws and having panels bending off it...

There are plenty of children in South Auckland whose lives are fucked right now. I think this councilor and the media are more wound up about the kind of sex people are having than the well being of children.
