lol free wifi at the movies?  I can't say I have any desire to step into a movie theater and hand over money.

My "Cynicism Meter" is spiking crazily.   I'm sure there's someone out there that has made the command decision to pay $15.00 for a movie ticket in order to get access to Wifi (as opposed to paying for it themselves) but beyond that, can we not go more than 2 hours without needing wifi download speeds?   You can't separate from the internet for more than two - okay, I'll give you three - hours?   

Oh, I forgot, you have to tweet to the world that you're at the new Avengers movie.   I don't know how I've progressed so far in a society that I am so out of step with.  ;)

Hell, a lot of free wifi hotspots throttle the d/l and u/l speeds, and (at least around here) I find most to be slower than 4G / LTE.
That's a word salad - and take it from me, I know word salad
I fear for the day when something happens on the right that is SO nuts that even Stadler says "That's crazy".

The US is such crap for free wifi compared to Europe, but free wifi is good in places like the Mall or Train Station, movie theater?  If that's a perk of being a frequent movie goer, that's kind of a crappy perk if you ask me. 

Hell, a lot of free wifi hotspots throttle the d/l and u/l speeds, and (at least around here) I find most to be slower than 4G / LTE.

Yea definitely, and the newer speeds being put out now (5Ge or whatever) are so quick that wifi is almost obsolete (minus paying for data potentially)

In this case the wifi was only available for people who were members of their "club" ($24 a month gets you 3 movies a week, and discounts on concessions, and apparently free wifi)
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

There was a theater in LA I'd go to from time to time and it felt like whenever you walked to your theater, your signal just vanished. Not sure they had wifi, but either way I enjoyed it.

Good Morning Krusty Krew.

My job is still up in the air. The decision regarding our contract still hasn't been made by the client, and the contract is up May 30th. They really should have made a decision and let us know, as I have a dozen people sitting here wondering if they are still going to have jobs at the end of the month. I've already had one person give a 2 week notice, as she accepted a job somewhere else (just to make sure she HAS a job). This is getting kind of ridiculous. I have a feeling we are going to wind up with a week's heads up and that's it.

I've had my eyes open at potential jobs, and cleaned up my resume a bit.

It actually now looks like they may be extended our contract at least another 6 months. It's NOT set in stone yet though.

ugh got sucked into this meeting with dell as they present to us their latest and greatest of shitty servers for the next three hours, at least I am remote and can just kind of fuck off while I listen/watch but once this is done I get to leave since I have a hearing test today.  My job is in a loud environment and management all of the sudden is worried about my hearing.  Well, I got to 30 concerts a year, I think that may also have an effect, but I'm curious about the results.  I don't think I have hearing issues, but it should be interesting to see.  And then once that's done, time to head into NYC for the Winery Dogs for more ear abuse!   :metal :metal

Note to self:

Swapping shifts and working a Friday afternoon shift was a bad idea. :lol

I forgot how busy Friday Swings can be!

We found a place to live!

By best friend's mother's property has a decent sized house and a detached studio on the property. My buddy and his fiance have been living in the studio, but are moving into the main house (which is essentially being turned into a duplex), and they offered the Studio to us for a steal. It's a HUGE downsizing, but we will be saving a shit-ton of money (utilities are included in rent!)

I was told that it's "going to happen" by a source who is a part of the people who will make it happen... but they have to officially meet about it today. So.... we'll see.

Took my first vacation day of the year, an impromptu one... to finish the yard work I needed done this weekend for the brush pick up tomorrow, otherwise it's two months wait, or pay.  I'm exhausted and annoyed I used a vacation day instead of just you know, checking the pick up schedule  :facepalm: but it really needed to be done and couldn't wait, and I don't want to spend the money for professionals when I know how to use a chainsaw.
