Morning.
Having rearranged my studio space again, I think I might have to get on with this crumb of work I have in hand.
Glad to see Curiosity has made it safely down to Gale Crater. A most audacious landing design, which has been pulled off successfully by NASA. Well done chaps. Looking forward to the next decade!*
*The two small rovers were only meant to last 90 days when they landed in 2004, but Opportunity is still actively exploring. Curiosity is designed for a two year exploration, but who know?

Morning all. Really enjoying being employed again. I think it definitely suits me more than academia.

Morning all.
Get to work to find out some numpty developer has changed our server for our website but not updated DNS.
Access to CMS/ticketing software is how we might say tricky

Morning all Got the day off, but I nipped in early this morning to finish up a report. Only took about an hour but, just as I was leaving, one of the production managers came in and said the plant computer was acting up. "what do you know about DOS?" he said.  A dust clad 486 was running the whole plant. The com ports were dead on the mobo, so I dropped the drive and RAM into an identical machine, and now I'm the second coming of christ! You gotta love technophobes.

Morning.
What else to say? Not a lot.
Onwards and sideways.

Morning all. Missed my normal train again this week because of having to rush out with the bins, and then the shuttle was full when I got here. Luckily someone on the team I'll be working on after I've finished my induction spotted me, which was nice, so I was able to get a cab with other employees rather than the bus. Company-funded transport FTW!

Morning all
Busy day today, could really do without having to go to site but I may have found a way to avoid it (as there's no point me going there today)

Morning. Meh. Tired. Not sure why, because I haven't been doing anything particularly strenuous this past few days.  _________________My Flickr | Snaptophobic BloggageHeather Kay: modelling details that matter.
