Sometimes I hatez my job, I does.


I have spent all day trying to do what should be ~ 1hr worth of work. And my reward at the end? A nice, spanking new crash report from the program in question. And I can't run the program on my work computer because my computer (which is a relatively new 15" iMac, intel core etc) doesn't have a big enough screen because the authors of the program couldn't be bothered to (get this...) make the window resizeable. So the buttons I need are literally off the screen, and I can't move the window around to access the stupid things. 

GRRR!!!! *headdesk*

Must... find... new... career.... or at least some high quality chocolate.

Exploiting whole world...you're doing it pretty well, akshully.


How is that, with the rest of the world's economy tanking, companies losing major money and laying off people, Exxon is still able to smash its own profit record? How does that work?

Must be nice to be an oil executive right now. I wonder if selling your soul is actually mandatory, or if you can trade in your first born child instead?

In other news, the number of undergrads to set their lab glove aflame increased by one this week. I have seen the future, and it is on fire. (Literally).
