Interview


OK, so i had an interview yesterday (hence my complete lack of posting, as opposed to my usual sporadic posting), and they asked me what would happen to all my projects at the Mater (the name of the hospital where i work) if i was to leave. I kinda thought about it for a couple of seconds and I had to truthfully answer: "They would get shelved until someone else with the necessary skills came along and was able to continue developing them. Ive documented everything to the best of my ability(ok, this is stretching the truth just a little bit) but I am the only programmer in the hospital at present." It was nice to realise that im a little bit indespensible - and then i realised that i aint gonna get paid that much despite being indespensible - work sux!

I didn't even know you had a sister.  And you hadn't told me you were going for another job D.

Geesh, I sure am glad it's you going for a new job KT.  I wouldn't want to get lumbered with D's workload if he was to go.


Besides (I have to say this) I'd miss him too much.

There was a badger contamination warning on the package. Fortunately, I've built up immunity to them.
