What a way to start a Monday
-
I worked all weekend, trying to catch up after the underwear-in-a-bunch-and-wrapped-around-the-axle crowd panicked last week. This was in addition to dealing with our visiting engineers from Japan, and my usual workload. I come in today to find out I get to go back and do maintenance on an OS/2 device driver. We've got a customer we did some custom work for three years ago who is still refusing to pay the bill until we make some changes. There ain't no damned justice sometimes :mad:.

It seem like it's coming from.... why yes, it's coming from the golf course! Just go, Gary, answer the call and GO! :cool: ~Nitron.

startActually, the voice is coming from my gym bag :). It's my running shoes saying "come on, let's go for a nice long run, and forget all of this..."

Gym bag, huh? You are lucky. The voices that call to me say "Jim, go to the bar!" Granted, my voices are usually just my alcoholic boss trying to find someone to get plastered with.
A long time ago, it would have been the pack of cigarrettes X|, but not any more. I just got back from the 'call of the gym bag'; I ran five miles over the noon hour. I'm all loaded up with endorphins for the depredations of the afternoon...

The remaining UI update things aren't my problem anymore - Had a look at the next thing to do after filter-fumbling, more is already functional than I thought - New "server maintenance equipment" can be ordered, which just gives me general good fuzzies - Found a potential replacement for Doc2Help (spasm of joy!) - Intranet Intern seems to get aloing well, expect bigger better slower Intranet soon - booked the flight to Argentina. Whoohoo! I know I know - by telling, I revoked any right to a sane Tuesday.

Yep - 18,000+ lines of assembly language :omg:. It runs a piece of custom hardware. Our prior-generation product ran under OS/2 X|.
