    Toshiba is going to make an offer. Not too excited because of the police check, but still. It’s a good sign that I’m interviewing ok!

    Speaking of:

    I had a phone call with a possible job this morning. I want you to picture every total fuckwit, arrogant and insecure IT person and this guy was it. Patronising as well.

    He was hired 6 months ago and fired everyone and brought in his “own team”. That is never, ever a good sign.

    And i don’t want to stereotype, but he kept talking about Linux 🤣

    I said I appreciate it but I don’t think we’d work well together lol

      Oh gosh. I see the benefits of Linux, but it also attracts the most pretentious, huffing-their-own-farts types. Sounds suss af regarding the team overhaul too bleh

      GOOD LUCK FOR THE TOSHIBA ROLE!!!

    Sad day today. My favourite pair of house/pj pants have come to a end. They’re threadbare, the elastic has gone and now there’s a hole where my crackhole is. We’ve had some good times, shared a lot of beer but it’s time to let go of the 3/4 length polka dot favourites. 😔

      It’s a grief when a favorite garment finally gives up the ghost. Also applies to shoes. I will weep when my favorite dagging-around-at-home sandals finally cark it.

      Farewell to the PJ pants! It is sad when something that comfy finally gives in. Do we need to hold a service?

    First drops of rain! Great big ones! I was wrong in my estimate of when it would start.

    EDIT: now it’s stopped

    Is anybody playing Last War? It’s fun, but driving me nuts. For one the obscene in game purchase prices (not a hope guys!!) but mostly because everything is so damn small. I’m blindly clicking on things because the instructions are microscopic. Must be intended for a pad not a phone.

    Doing a little DIY project (currently at the what-have-I-done panic stage) and noticed the little pack of sandpaper I have from a “variety” shop is priced at $1.50. Must have bought it in the 80s for it to have been that price.

      that rain band looks like a soft drizzle that wets the ground and steams you instead of bakes you

      The BOM radar rainband is in the exact same spot it was when I looked an hour ago. I would like it to quit stagnating and hurry up.

    Toshiba messaged me yesterday saying they have another role they might fit me into. Meeting at 3pm.

    Let’s see what happens.
