    Today I had a "Jane" sandwich and Stevo iced bun, they taste just the same without the names....
    You think so? I find my food so much more rewarding when it has a name badge... Skippy.

    The problem is that twice this year they have changed it on a weekend and sent a notification via the net of the new password, BUT they can't log in to read what the new password is............ LOL
    Like at my work, but at each terminal there are several people who need to log on to the software, some of them intermittently and I need to post up the new password on the terminal for everyone. Then someone comes round and removes them for security reasons and then they have to contact me when they want to log on. So I used this barcode generator I have at home to print out the new password in barcode and stick on each terminal so people can scan in the user name and password and the security conscious freak is none the wiser.

    My bin is a massive cardboard box under the workbench... its my bench and there is no one else that works out back in the workshop with me. I crush all my cardboard and throw it into the recycling dumper. Magically though... my bin is always feeling up with empty cardboard boxes that the magical person "SomeotherCt" is filling it up for me... I'd be emptying it every two days if i dont remove their boxes.

    I have a lot of other bigger things that pissed me off as well... but I'm just staying on topic lol.

    We had rabbits when I was a kid. It is true what they say about rabbits. Male + female = 100 rabbits

    I hear ya Fox! The missus adopts a lost rabbit. I insist its out the place within 2 weeks, either re-homed or off to the "farm". After two weeks she decides it needs a friend!!!!

    So one free male rabbit, one $20 female friend, and a f$%king $400 vet bill to have them both desexed.

    I still search eBay regularly for cheap doses of Myxomatosis......

    It's a geek gripe:
    I'm a database developer... with a personality (it's a bonus, trust me!). In a few sentences: our network at work has been playing up, I can't do anything useful on this network at the moment - even browsing the net is terrible - but if I save files to the local computer, all is good. This is a big no-no in real terms (backup/preservation/etc). Last night, I was back at work, and I ran out of disk space on the network share... 2mb left out of a lot of terabytes. In an enterprise environment.

    The issue isn't the space, it's a "wtf are these IT clowns doing?" issue (I say this with 15yrs experience from the lowest to my now high).

    *sigh*

    I never thought I'd really think this way, being where I came from in the IT scale ... but you hire monkeys, you get peanuts (isn't that how it goes?)... it's not rocket surgery (isn't that how it goes?)...

    Then I came into work today, and my mother####ing bins are gone!@#!$#@@#$!@@!!!! replaced with communal recycle/trash bins... I've thrown so many things today into my "bin that was" :-(

    Actually, I've had a career change and have taken on fortune telling (the predictions are always the same and end badly) with a side-line on marriage counselling (funny the predictions are always the same and end badly here too).
