                  Actually three years now, plus 4 days. I'm beginning to wonder if being the last person to post in the back room is worth it :~. Especially as, if I do it right, no-one will ever know.

                    Might make a Monthly visit like this. The weather here today is actually OK, marred only by the fact I'm in Sunderland. I think I might be cracking up, I've started talking to myself.

                      Well, monthy seems to by bi-monthly. I've been busy with JavaScript at work I suppose. Weather pretty nice today, still marred by Sunderland. Nice to see I've found someone to talk to, myself and Wilson - who to be fair is just a face painted on a ball. Shhhh. I think they're listening.

                        Turns out they weren't listening, but them might be. Thinking I might be cracking up in here, it's just so lonely. I remember this place in its heyday - CG duelling with Corporal Myopic or whatever his name was. You could just hear the tinfoil hat crinkling as he typed. No More. Now just damned silence and the voices in my head telling me to consume and obey. And Wilson.

                              Well, I'd forgott_en_ I wrote that. Since then the Great British summer has failed to proceed. Not in a good mood, we had to let the two remaining apprentices go today.

                                Nearly two months on and we're definitely into Autumn, the trees are turning, we've had fog. Two of the apprentices found work with another company, which is good. The third is still looking, hope he finds something soon.

                                  Well, the human drama of the apprentices has played out. Two of them found other work, the third didn't, pity. New intake of grads going reasonably well. I saw the first Christmas ads yesterday absa-fucking-lutely appalling - nigh on two months of that mawkish shite ahead. The John Lewis one makes me want to puke again, but people are sharing it so it's doing its job.

                                    Good news on the apprentice front - the last one not to have found a job starts a new career in the new year, this makes happy as he was a good egg. All quiet on the Western front - run up to christmas so not much happening right now. The graduates are al off on their hollibobs, except for a couple who decided to brave it in. I wonder when the Captain See Sharp containment unit will be shut down - I think I might be the last person to post here for nearly a year.

                                      Well, the apprentice who found a new job didn't last long. Turns out he was on a further apprenticeship and his new manager didn't like the fact he didn't already know the new job somehow - at least that is what I heard. Grads are doing actual work, which makes me happy - it seems to have perked them up too. Hopefully things will be more organised in the next intake in terms of handover. They've been a good bunch this year.

                                        Well, the apprentice who found a new job didn't last long. Turns out he was on a further apprenticeship and his new manager didn't like the fact he didn't already know the new job somehow - at least that is what I heard. Grads are doing actual work, which makes me happy - it seems to have perked them up too. Hopefully things will be more organised in the next intake in terms of handover. They've been a good bunch this year.

                                        Ho hum. Nothing really to say. I've kicked off a prototype mobile app. Looking pretty interesting so far as it's the first green-field I've worked on in years. The grads have nearly finished their first team project, seems to be less cobbled together than I expected, which is nice :)

                                          Well this is interesting.

                                          Giving someone else equal rights does not infringe or take away rights from you. It just makes it illegal to enforce your prejudice and hate. It's that simple. "It’s a way of trying to make visible the fact that system is not neutral, it is not a level-playing field, it’s not the same experience for everyone. There are biases and imbalances and injustices built into the warp and woof of our culture." - jdowsett "There is a club, and you're not in it." - Driftglass
