What's everyone working on?

[Alduin]

The company that I work at does a lot of custom software and I can't think of a single project that I've worked on that hasn't had some change in the business logic after we installed it. Of course it is a "bug" in their eyes even though we did what they told us to do, but it is no longer a frustrating thing. It is just something to deal with and somewhat expected.

Some people sail through life on a bed of roses like a knife slicing through butter.

I'm part of an elite group in our government working to cover up the ensuing massive alien invasion of planet Earth. My most recent project involved my trying to get Windows Vista to install on their alien hardware, with the thought that it would most certainly slow them down. Unfortunately, I was only told far too late, that when they said "Alien" hardware, they really meant like, extraterrestrial stuff, and not Alienware. Sucks, all that work down the drain, but I did bring that machine to a grinding halt. So now I'm working on our "plan B", which primarily involves gathering together a group of unsuspecting individuals that will be drugged, loaded onto a spacecraft and blasted into space, while in suspended animation for the next 1000 years. We hope, after the eventual invasion and destruction of the human race, they will be able to make it back to Earth, and recolonize the planet. Which reminds me, Chris, I need your home address, so I can, uh, send you a package. I've already sent packages to a Professor John Robinson, Maureen, Judy, Penny, Will, Major Don West and Dr. Zachary Smith ... you're next on this list.

Today we poured the concrete foundations for my first solo substation design. So far, so good. The anchor bolts are squared within 1/8" of nominal positions, corner to corner, and I spec'd the steel structural parts with 1/8" over-size mounting holes. I'll know whether I still have a job about a week after the steel arrives on or about the 25th of this month. I guess you could say I've been focusing on hardware lately... :-D

I can't comment on everyone - but I am working on: As an employee - Win app: Clinical software for GPs - C# .net 3.5, WCF, vs 2005 (unfortunately 'designed' by morons) As self-employed - Web-application: for the jewelery industry - .Net 3.5, VS 2008 (designed by a genius) Job applications - PLEASE get me outta here!

If I knew then what I know today, then I'd know the same now as I did then - then what would be the point? .\\axxx (That's an 'M')

This past week I've been working on my 4wd, the kid's quad bike, my whipper snipper and the camper trailer. Of course, none of that pays any bills, so to make money I have been working on the usual stuff - business analysis, system development/maintenenance using VB.NET, ASP.NET, Access, SQL Server (in no particular order) and doing a gazillion SQL Server data extracts and uploads for one client who's busiest this time of year. In the near future I will be working on what I want to do next in life (which is proving the most challenging), getting our Ju Jitsu club up and running again, getting the kids back to school and getting fit(ter than I am now).
