I did something similar when I landed a job in 2018. Team in a totally different state/city in the United States, But I still trecked into the office in my town everyday. Then covid happened... And for some odd reason, I still didn't know how to react to not having to go into the office. Little bit of anxiety, potentially over somebody missing me at work that wasn't even there... Been fully remote in my current position for 5 years and I wouldn't have it any other way.

    Same. I never saw it when I had an original run in the theater and was so excited for the re-release. Couldn't get to one of the true film IMAX showings of it, but went to an IMAX theater and oh my God did they just have the damn sound cranked... So muddy, so loud. Makes me appreciate my home theater that much more...

    I've plugged a standard console cable into an APC UPS. did that twice before I realized what was going on. APC decided to do a pinout on their serial platforms that gets triggered with a "Cisco" console cable to shut down. What. The. Fuck.

    Holy fuck I've got a friend that will die on the hill that you (customer) should tip, and generously every time. Given his experience with it, I agree to a point, but only because he willingly chose to dig heels into that job for better or for worse. I do tip because I feel it's earned in most cases. I just don't agree with being over the top about it for sure. Part of that is his personality too... And the more I think about it; fuck that guy.

    We had a car (ours) on the street for a while in front of our house. Whatever glue they use on the enforcement notices that the police placed on it is unreal - very hard to get all of it off without using a blade.
