Fleh

# Repair
Sent my old com in for repair (and have got it back, clean, fresh, incredibly fast, but a tad aloof). Wouldn't boot into Windows to resume my long list of porn downloads. *cough cough*

If you have absolutely no patience, do not call ComputerWar. Ever. They're bustling busy and never answer their phones. I must've called them at least 30 times (rotating between their 2 phone numbers listed). Only got thru 3 times. 

1 time he told me to hold and then forgot about me so my 1-2 minutes of waiting was for naught. 

1 more time, to check repair statuses, he gave me another phone number which turned out to be not working. 

And finally he checked and told me his technician would call once the job was done.

The techie suggested that i reformat my com and i told him no way in hell so i added another hard disk and installed Windows on that instead. Lost quite a bit of stuff. In terms of programs as they don't work anymore. My antivirus. My... long list of porn downloads. *cough cough* Other non-installed files are still intact so hurrah.

Life is miserable without my computer.

#Work
Am working part-time, again, at CNX, this time as a data-miner. Gordon told me there was some urgent project that needed some additional manpower so i agreed to help out. Horrendous, brain-numbing, tedious job that is an insult to my intelligence. But i haven't got anything else to do, so might as well earn some cash.

Not to point fingers but i bet some of the data-miners in the other room are complete dunces because we collectively work on 1 group of files with a couple of processes so each file has a chance to go around to everyone once it is submitted for the subsequent process. 

And i keep seeing these really idiotic mistakes coming up and it obviously didn't come from me because i would have remembered and i'm too smart anyway. Ask you upload 2010 annual reports, so why do i keep seeing 2009 reports one after another?! Walao eh if i find out who the culprits are, i'll knock their heads together like coconuts.
But i guess i probably won't. Tomorrow'll be my last day. And it's back to... Uhm... Sleeping all day and waking up to play computer games? Sigh. Life of a bum. True story. ;)
