Came in for christmas maintenance only to find the place is jumping and full of staff... I'm not sure if they're all hiding from their families or what, but I'm going to start powering shit off like I just don't care
Christmas was last week. Do you normally have the week between Christmas and New Years off?
Nope. They have 1/2 day Xmas eve, then return to work Dec 26 (if not a weekend) and work full on up to and including Dec 31, off for Jan 1, then back to work Jan 2 (again if not weekend).
That's draconian!
I ran into this with every organization I've been in.
Super different culture or something
2nd year running the CEO of this company came by our office to thank us personally for working 28/29/30 and assured we'd be paid for the time and get 3 extra vacation days as a thank you
-
TIL that Windows has a built in network capturing engine.
-
Most colleges keep a similar schedule. The last two I've worked at Shutdown at the EOB on Christmas Eve, and don't ask Staff to come back until after New years.
-
Still on holidays
Yearly forced shutdown until January. 19/dec/2015 -> back on 11/Jan/2016I have viral infection and am coughing up chunky bits. Averaging an almost khaki green. Just sharing that coz you need to know, especially if you are eating

It was a tad over 40c here, yesterday and is supposed to be a bit further over 40c today. Cooler change later in the week with possible showers.
-
We are getting sleet right now. Roads are fine here but about 20 minutes away it's bad.
-
Though not much worse than normal winter.
-
Our solar hot water system got a bit too hot yesterday and opens the pressure, release valve. So much water was cascading off our roof, it sounded like a waterfall.

Internet explorer on WP 8.1 sucks. Editing text here on ML is nearly impossible.
I realm wish a better browser was available. According to my investigation, the "top rated" "alternative" browsers are just re skinned IE.

Watching the Martian with @Mike-Ralston.

Exactly, what are you doing... While I personally have no problem with IE, I do prefer Firefox and have been using it in Win8 and Win8.1 since day one. And now I use it on Win10 with no problems ( Windows 10 that is).
I think edge will be nice, bit still needs some work.

Nope. Windows Phone just doesn't have any decent options

WP... Windows Phone...
I have 4 or 5 browsers on my actual Windows PC's. -
Replaced an iPhone 6 screen today. I'm trained on how to do it now. Oh, and worked 11.5 hours at my retail job...work at Fedex in less than 7 hours from now (9:12PM EST here).

I wouldn't be posting my employers names online.. Just saying.

@Jason it's fixed.

Sleet hitting the windows right now is louder then my box fan... This is crazy hoping we don't lose power.

I'm on a 650XL and have very few problems with ML.
It's true it's a pain to edit pre typed text.

Finally took the plunge on the Toshiba 55" at Best Buy. They had it on sale again. $349.
I wish I knew about the Apple Py promotion that's been going on since September. Dang.
