Some days...
Some days are fun. Coworkers build blow dart guns and draw “thieves with guns” as a target to shoot at.

I love music that can make you cry or laugh, music that makes you stop and say "I’ve been there" ( Read more... ) -
Allergies vs. Peppermint
Today there was three people at work today with the start of a bad headache, of which I was one. We decided it was allergies, or the change in the weather, or something of that sort. Well, I pulled out my box of stash peppermint tea and within a half hour everyone still had a bit of a headache, but everyone was impressed by my tea ( Read more... ) -

Deadlines:
A deadline is a wonderful idea that allows you to extract work from someone without all that tedious mucking about with people and management skills. All you do is pick a date, usually but not always, in the future and then announce to all concerned that this is absolutely positively the last moment by which the work can be finished. Optionally you ( Read more... ) -

Mookesh: You need to fix this part as well.
Me: And then will I be done?
Mookesh: You are like a child.
Me: Hey!
Mookesh: You keep asking “Are we there yet” but sometimes you need to look out the window and see for yourself that you are not there yet.

use
I have spent my entire sophomore year learning to never say, spell, write, type, or even think the word use in a design class out of fear of Andy's head exploding if he had to tell us not to one more time. So I get to class today only to hear Mookesh say, “I love to use the word use. We are all users in every sense of the word. Just don't tell ( Read more... )
