| 12:14.35 | gregj | heh, why would anyone in their right mind use software raid with SSDs |
| 12:34.36 | AndyMillar | why not? |
| 12:48.10 | gregj | with higher bandwith comes more cpu required |
| 12:48.21 | j0nr | does anyone know of any web based applications that I can use to track clock-in and -out times? for contractors |
| 12:48.23 | gregj | besides, apparently centos/redhat 6 has issues with software raid and ssds |
| 12:48.49 | j0nr | and it must be able to generate a nice sheet to print out for approval |
| 12:49.08 | gregj | I'm filling out a document everyweek myself |
| 12:49.35 | gregj | (working as a contrator myself) |
| 12:50.16 | j0nr | gregj: just a manually created doc? |
| 12:50.37 | gregj | yup |
| 12:50.54 | gregj | I got a template that I'm filling out every week, hand it to line manager for a signature and then submit to the agency |
| 12:51.19 | j0nr | gregj: right |

| 15:42.31 | yaMatt | no word yet from Google about giving us space, it's been a few hours |
| 15:42.38 | yaMatt | Mozilla seemed far more responsive |
| 15:42.49 | yaMatt | grr.. |
| 15:44.29 | gregj | that's google for you |
| 15:44.41 | gregj | I don't know what people love it for, they are a business, and a vicious one at it |
| 15:45.09 | gregj | with that kind of power and amount of information, no one should think they are anyone's friend |
| 15:45.37 | yaMatt | well at least be capable of answering e-mails |
| 15:45.44 | gregj | .. |
| 15:46.02 | gregj | I declined their offer to work for them twice, second time after actually few interviews |
| 15:46.27 | gregj | I just dno't see point being trapped in an organisation like that. World is actually loosing a lot, because they suck in so much good talent |
| 15:46.38 | gregj | i hate them personally, consider them economical troll |
| 15:46.55 | yaMatt | I know people who work there and I don't doubt for a second this is just a failing of their events department |
| 15:47.11 | gregj | for that reason, I'd rather go to a smaller business to get some hosting, and services done |
| 15:47.14 | yaMatt | but it's a pretty public facing part of the company to fail at |
| 15:47.33 | gregj | cos they make major money on adverts |
| 15:47.35 | gregj | rest is just a joke |
| 15:47.40 | yaMatt | wonder if Red Hat can put us up in Baker Street |
| 15:48.13 | gregj | maybe these days they get something out of screwing apple too, who knows |
| 15:48.19 | yaMatt | heheh |
| 15:48.37 | yaMatt | they like kicking MS at the moment too |
| 15:49.31 | gregj | MS is down on its knees for quite a while now |
| 15:49.45 | gregj | only thing that saves them is monies in the bank they have |
| 15:57.15 | gregj | doing forth week of 9-5 contract, already feeling depression and slight madnes |
| 15:57.34 | gregj | I don't konw why people think that entrapping employees in work camps from 9-5 makes it somehow good |
| 16:04.57 | yaMatt | no flexi-time? |
| 16:05.55 | gregj | not as a contractor |
| 16:06.00 | gregj | no working from home here either |
| 16:06.09 | gregj | only contract in half a year like that |
| 16:06.20 | gregj | but its only for 3 months, and they pay rather well |
| 16:07.03 | gregj | and I need to get some money to pay taxes, support all whining brits - complaining about likes of myself (immigrants) stealing their jobs and money... |
| 16:07.32 | yaMatt | heh |
| 16:09.13 | gregj | altho I was surprised how nice people were to me this weekend (went to leicestershire) |
| 16:10.37 | yaMatt | I really don't envy not having flexi-time that's the kind of managerial thinking that says "if you're not at your desk you're not working" |
| 16:10.49 | yaMatt | gregj, pitty? ;) |
| 16:11.04 | gregj | I just take a lot of tea and loo breaks |
| 16:11.36 | gregj | I need to move back to England at some stage anywya (currently living in NI/Belfast) |
| 16:11.52 | gregj | but probably not london city itself, too many people |
| 16:13.31 | yaMatt | ah, you just got to learn the tricks |
| 16:14.01 | gregj | tricks ? |
