    While its always a compliment to hear "I'd love to hire Naphtali" while being a contractor in a conference call with a customer, I wish I could have responded "there is no amount of money in the world that would make me come work for your dysfunctional, employee-hostile company" without it being misconstrued somehow...

    Nope. Hours of sitting in a car, running around, burning gas, marveling at the questionable intelligence of the people you serve.

    But most of the time, its just rushing around.

    My room kind of smells like something died in it, but I'm not sure why. I really hope I can figure it out before I go away for 4 nights on Wednesday.

    I found a bag of biltong in my room that has been there for quite some time* and removed it, so I'm hoping this resolves the situation. Otherwise I think some kind of creature has died in my ceiling.

    The joy I should be feeling is somewhat numbed by political news today, but I'm still happy that some deserving and needful folk will be a bit less burdened.

    Hooray, got an interview scheduled with an actually promising company after 3 weeks of applications.

    I'm fed up with my current job, and hotels in general after 3 years, and I've been having to work the overnight shift for the past month (and putting up with loads of bullshit during it) so I really hope this shakes out.

    I'm also cashing in my vacation time in a week or two so, MAN, it would be great to be able to have my vacation time and put in my two weeks notice on the first day of my vacation. That's what happens when you tell someone they will just be covering overnight for a little while and then leave them there full time for over a month and like all of their original duties on top of the overnight shift shit.

    I wonder if IT would be cool with me bringing in my own monitor for my workstation. I'm rocking a 19" square monitor running at 1280x1024 in this beastly year of our Lord 2017. I can't actually display two regular-ass word documents side by side without some overlap. I don't need all the pixels, I just need a productive aspect ratio.
    For what it's worth, I'm in IT and have a user that brought her own monitor so she could have three, and I don't give a shit.

    Perfect, we'll put you in the fartbox straight away. It's not actually called the fartbox, but it is an enclosed trailer with all the equipment to pilot the drone and well sometimes the pilots get gassy. Which kind of seeps into the cushions and never ever leaves, only growing in strength with each additional nether blast. Can't leave until your shift is done either.

    I'm becoming more OK with the job I have now, though I doubt I'll ever really be happy about it. One step in the right direction begins this week: New software based on Pega, we're all being trained on it and will begin as ostensible beta testers next week. This is good for two reasons, first because the existing software they use is archaic, esoteric, and borderline useless. Second, because it means they're putting a lot of trust in our expertise, and company trust in our skills has been something severely lacking since we transitioned from Verizon.

    This seems like a fun game idea. Every day you find yourself in the body of someone working a dangerous job and your task is to survive that day without any prior knowledge of said job.
