RyoSaeba's Journal: I'm sooooo bored....

Sometimes it's cool to have time at work...
But having too much time sucks !!!
I'm a software developer in a contracting company (ie i work for other companies), currently working in a foreign country.
Tell you what, that company sucks. The people are slow, i have like 2 days outta 4.5 (leaving friday noon) where i have nothing to do...and when i have, it's in crappy VBScript (type-free language, sure, except why do i get 'incompatible type' sometimes ?)
And of course i can't use the computer for anything (can't even put a background pic !!), stuck with IE, can't download anything, horrible !
That's also why i subscribed to /., just to kill time waiting either for something to do, or just the day ending...
Worse of all, i don't have a comp during the week (not at home), so i can't chat with friends outside work !!
Well, considering how many people are unemployed, maybe i shouldn't complain that much.......

Occasional Tech Support

[MonTemplar]

I've the office techie these days, with the occasional quick-n-dirty dev job (Borland Delphi) thrown in, so if everything's working, and we're not short-staffed, I can kick back. Occasional relief is provided when we get artwork in to pref for CD, insert and booklet printing, either in-house or at an outside print bureau - nothing like cursing at Quark Xpress, Illustrator and CorelDraw to get the old juices going. I love graphic designers, really I do, especially on a roasting-spit with an apple shoved in their mouth. :)

Slashdot, Register, WinInfo, AnchorDesk (file under Funnies) - sweet!
