I never cease to be amazed at the stuff that one ends up getting involved with in IT and low-voltage work. I know what the insides of those automated postal machines involves.

I don't even support the cabling (no LV license). I just support the card readers that go talk to our campus dining system. It's fun to see the look on people's faces when I tell them I work in IT and work on vending machines though. About 75% of the time, I get a free pop out of the deal.

Our dev team at work has been trying to fill a couple of developer positions. They've failed one of the positions at least twice and possibly even a third time. Hard to find good developers these days that don't cost an arm and a leg (or two).

That was a good movie, Night all....

Mike/Dave, I can't believe they didn't poly off the top of that garage door, but at least it didn't get below freezing and cause havoc on the plumbing....

I should say it was a weird feeling not owning a car for a night. Ashley was nice enough to bring me down there this morning to get the VW.... I actually went there to look at a CC and found the Eos had more room inside....
