Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Hey, you went to college Bill.  Your dad is all right with you working somewhere else.

Oh I know. I think he's happy to see my in a M-F 9-6 job rather than doing what he does where he's at work until midnight 3 days a week.

So today was my last day of classroom training.

Tomorrow I start my crash course in operations and procedures.  In the office.

I also finally have my own cube. And it's like right next to my supervisor.  Not sure if that is a good or a bad thing.
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Depends on your supervisor I guess. My boss had her office next to me for the first few weeks while I learned how things work and it was really nice having her to talk to. Now I have my own office time seems to move a bit slower.

Typically you don't want to sit close enough for your supervisor to see you in your cube because then you know you have eyes on you and can't be on DTF  :lol

Granted, depends on how your supervisor manages.   A micromanager I would try to stay far away from if I could.

Yep, still a ton of rendering to do. I fixed up my biggest rendering issue today though, so hopefully it's smooth sailing from here.

How do you know where the problem lies when there is a problem.

Usually it's a matter of process of elimination. Took me a week to fix this one, because I never thought to find the underlying issue.

I have water coming into my basement when the downstair's shower has its showerhead turned on. I bought a snake cam and I'm hoping to diagnose the issue for about a 1/15 of what a plumber would have charged me.

Buying a snake cam for your shower sounds way sexier than it actually is. :neverusethis:

A snake cam?  So you'll be able to see inside your pipe and it has a light or something and you'll actually be able to find the leak?

Good morning and happy Friday all. Hoping this Brexit nonsense doesn't muck up my Friday too much.

So today was my last day of classroom training.

Tomorrow I start my crash course in operations and procedures.  In the office.

I also finally have my own cube. And it's like right next to my supervisor.  Not sure if that is a good or a bad thing.

Typically you don't want to sit close enough for your supervisor to see you in your cube because then you know you have eyes on you and can't be on DTF  :lol

Granted, depends on how your supervisor manages.   A micromanager I would try to stay far away from if I could.

This is why I'm very glad that my boss lives on another continent :biggrin:

I'll admit I didn't even know about Brexit till it was done. 


I've gotta meet up with my buddy before work.  He's filing for custody for his youngest son and I'm giving him a letter stating certain facts and what I've witnessed in regards to his ex.  Luckily...  The courthouse is next door to my office..  So he's just meeting me at work.

Evening all. Planted on the couch with a beer and waiting for dinner to be ready. After dinner I try my hand at making mead for the first time, and then off to the theater to see Central Intelligence (with a couple cans of Heady Topper tucked away in my pockets).

Ugh, our house's power cut out, and it wouldn't go back on because something was tripping it. It took an hour of turning off and eventually unplugging everything before we managed to get the power back on, and the worst part is that we still have no idea what it causing the problem. Even with everything turned off, it still tripped, so something must have a shitty cord or something, but now it's working. So I'm sure I can look forward to the power cutting out randomly again. Hooray!
