Who invented these things?

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

So, with the new schedule I’m getting home later, leaving me less time to listen to podcasts. I’m not able to listen to podcasts on my laptop while working on my desktop anymore either, so, again, less time to listen to podcasts. I’m trying to move the podcasts to my MP3 player to listen to at lunch or while walking from the parking garage downtown to my office. But I have a question.

What kind of sadist invented those little earbuds? Seriously, either they won’t stay in my ears, or they are ridiculously uncomfortable! Grr!

Yeah, this is one of the million little things that are different with the new job that I haven’t exactly adjusted to yet. All in good time grasshopper… 🙂

    I promised to keep you all updated on the great documentation project of 2005. I’ve decided to break the documentation of job duties into time periods. There’s a separate list of everything that needs to be done on a daily basis, weekly or bi-weekly basis, monthly basis yearly basis and, finally, a list of on-going…

    Last night’s projects, while staying up to watch the Islanders shutout the Sharks 3-0, (whoo hoo!) included downloading a copy of Newsmonster and upgrading the Red Hat 7.1 Workstation to 8.0. On the Red Hat front, I still haven’t found a solution to the network card problem on the server edition of Red Hat, but…
