Hurray!
Let's keep this mutha funka alive!
It's been a busy past month or so.
My grandfather's health failed. I had to deny my first high paying programming job. I took my life, health, and accident insurance pre-licensing classes. I passed my life, health, and accident insurance exam. I'm meeting with some big whigs at work. Just a combination of good and bad.
So, what's the story with denial of the job?
Well I was stuck out of town for 2 weeks with a slow internet connection dealing with my grandfather's estate. I had to tell the guy that I couldn't do it. I'm still kicking myself in the ass.
I would think that a death in the family is understandable. Was it some kind of time-sensitive job such as writing code to crack the password on the bomb before it went off?
Something like that ;)
I talked with him over the phone and he kept stressing the time importance as they are already past overdue on this project. It was a very simple project too that's what grinds my gears.
Not simple as in finishing it in a few hours, but simple as in there isn't much thought process behind it, just doing the work really.
Old, but I'm not that old
Young, but I'm not that bold
And I don't think the world is sold
I'm just doing what we're told
What is....the lyrics to some song, Alex?
Why is your name dclamp and not cclamp?
I always assumed dclamp was said in that Fantasy Island like fashion - de plane, de plane...
Hey szlamany, where did you learn most of your WPF programming? I've started doing some more programming with it and I'm really digging it.
Because of reasons.Quote:
