got an interview for an upgraded position within the same department.
been close to 20 years since I had a job interview.
I used to sweat over them, this time 'round, i'm maybe too laid back.
8 hour round trip and loss of a days pay just to get to the interview.Congrats on the interview. Boo for losing pay.
You could be sneaky and book the day off with annual leaveSelf employed mate, contractor. Have to go into the city & meet with other more important contractors & be interviewed by them to see if I cut the mustard.
Ah, I see. Best of luck with the interview and the travels.
It costs $62 to park for 2 hours in the middle of the CBD, ouch.
Not a bad interview, don't think I went too well, I have a feeling they were looking for someone different, possibly not as good looking HAHA!
I'm not holding my breath.
I can't believe the wealth in the big smoke. We moved out 20 years ago and people seem so much more wealthy.
I saw what I thought was a McLaren MP4-12C it wasn't but it was something equally erotic, a Ferrari 458 and a Lambo Murcielago all on the same day.
Disgusting wealth when there are so many struggling.Good grief! They really don't want people driving into the city then.
Well, you can't go around being a distraction to customers.I used to work in a wealthy suburb and I had a super expensive car count... just for giggles/wtf-how-rich-are-you-lot!? I counted 5 in one day (in a 2km stretch of road).
Maserati's, Ferraris, Lambos... not to mention the expensive-but-not-quite-super-rich carsYep, 5 in 2 kms, that's a good hit rate.
Usually, now, I see Scania's, Volvo's, Kenworth's, Iveco's, and a few Peterbilts.

Heading home
Hmm, left or right, left or right, left or right.
Bit like, do I cut the blue or the red, blue or red, blue or red.
I've wondered, how do I take a phots and post it while driving? Or is that a question I shouldn't ask??Thatโs what knees are for

That's a great idea, If only this didn't happened.

Trying to search "Google Network Services" (Texas) had a call off them at 7:30am (UK Time) claiming illegal activity and software on my computer.
Asked for a phone number and they gave me 1 800 352 134, which doesn't have enough numbers I think?
Explained to him we don't have a computer, OK we have a laptop but that only comes out when the kids have school work, as they have Smart TV for Netflix/Streaming and Consoles PS4/Switch etc, didn't tell him that. He said he could see the computer online right now!!
So ok asked him for the IP of the machine that was on my network, apparently it was 192.168.1.X LOL I don't use default IP's ever on my home network. First thing a do when setting up or changing ISP is remove their hardware and use my own and use a 10.X.X.X for internal network.
Fun Morning. Reported to my ISP as they do the phone line too, and online to the police.

Nope, one short for the US.

Finished troubleshooting a shared mailbox issue with O365 and OWA. Somebody disabled OWA access on the shared mailbox in question so we could not access it. Going to have to bump up our logging as nobody' fessing up.

Dealing with hotel screw ups.

Bought some NOS power tubes (80s era Mesa Boogie military grade) for my guitar amp - holy crap, night and day difference from the 30 year old stock tubes (which still have plenty of life left).

well my venture into non O365 email lasted a week, moved back into my O365 mailbox last night, hadn't closed/cancelled the service.
Like going home to a warm fire and slippers. Not the cheapest experience, but warm and comfy and everything is right where I need it. -

Just tried Zoho using IMAP. It was terribly slow.

Why were you using IMAP? why not the web interface for email?
I haven't used a fat client in years for my personal email - why be tied to a device for access?
