Cynicism is a blank check for failure.

What is a recreational drug that can be used with "reasonable" side effects?

Also, is there any stimulant beyond nicotine/caffeine that wont hurt one?

Are you going to try circumventing the firewall at your new job?

AFK

I dunno.  I have to get a handle on the lay of the land first.  Technically the organization I'm going to work for is a part of the Hospital, but, it is physically separated from the Hospital in a different part of the city.  And I don't really know the extent of the firewall but it would seem like if they block Facebook, a site like this would get blocked too.  But maybe not.  We'll see I guess. 

But, if I don't, I'll still be here some.  I usually check this place out while I'm eating my breakfast so I'll at least continue that routine.

You may be surprised.  I don't know how this place is coded, but I've got a pretty strict firewall at work (no photobucket/imageshack/facebook/myspace/"forums"/"blogs" et al), but this place is fine.

True.  Do they like monitor network usage at all there?  That's one thing I'd be paranoid about it, and it may be due to my lack of understanding, but I would wonder if there was some spag sitting in some corner of the hospital watching what everyone is doing on the network.

These days, there is always some spag watching what you do online.  But having known some tech/security guys, they have a lot more on their plate than some dude on a forum.

Anything getting done, or just riding it out?

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

I basically have two tasks left.

Finish going through my files and complete a year-long overview of the program I've been transitioning to my co-worker.  I'm almost done the latter.  I cleaned out all of my personal belongings earlier this week, so I just need to go through files and toss unimportant stuff.  I also want to take some of the papers and documents I've written to put in a portfolio for future projects. 

My co-workers gave me a surprise baby shower/going away party yesterday (Pics in Spagbook).  So it's a little weird and anti-climatic.  Though, my Executive Director is supposed to be coming in at some point today so I we can have a little chat before I shove off.

Man. Good luck at the new place!

Whenever I leave a job, I try to hide something that others will discover.


For example, when I was a clinical research coordinator, I made about 40 photocopies of my face, screaming, and hid them inside the drop ceiling panels.

When I was a shoe salesman for Lord Tayloron I had a box of over 60 fortune cookie fortunes and 100 pen caps which I hid in a shoe box covered with mystic glyphs and labeled DO NOT OPEN. (I later found out that my haitian coworker, who is very superstitious, would not touch the box and remains freaked out to this day)

Even now, there are a few post-it notes hidden around my current work place which read, "CONGRATULATIONS! YOU FOUND THE SECRET NOTE. RE-HIDE THIS POST-IT FOR ++GOOD LUCK"


so my question is,

what are you having for lunch?

AFK

A wrap. 

And also that is a great idea.
