Choosy mothers choose Jif.
Kid tested mother approved.

You know Mr Wipple got nasty with that TP.
They didn't call him Wipple for nothing.

Those little "cheats" defeat the purpose of self quarantine.  
I hear all the time from pharmacists how almost half of the folks 
are getting infected needlessly.

IBB spectrum e-mail is messed up today.  They have a monopoly in my area,
so it's not like I can get another ISP easily.

It seems I can reboot and get e-mail working again.  But really, this
used to work for months and months before I need to reboot for any reason.
And a day or so later, it'll start giving errors about spamhaus (for an IP
address that I don't have).  It's a joke.
 
Anyway, IBB, my boss must have a brother called Lumburgh.  This just
keeps happening.  Gotta get those TPS reports in on time. Or something.
They really need to communicate better about things.

Is email on a linux box?

response 169 of 252: Mark Unseen   Apr 2 02:52 UTC 2020

On a Win 10 computer.  My iphone gives the same warning sometimes, as does
my ipad.  I have not had many issues with a Win 7 computer but I don't send
that much e-mail from it.  I think it's the ISP's problem.

IBB because our 2019 raises are held up until July 2020.  I'll 
likely be gone before I get my raise.

Less "sad" than "frustrating," but user henced's account is being used to push
coronavirus spam to various newsgroups - hope they're reading this and can
log in and change their password.

Let's all pay tribute to Jimmy Cobb, a legendary jazz drummer who died on the
24th.  Very sad. RIP.
 
I'm also sad that soon I'll likely lose my job due to no work for me anymore.
I hope I can hang in there for another year, but it's unlikely.

re #179
Hope your job weathers through this.
Any chance you can do telecommute work?

response 181 of 252: Mark Unseen   May 26 16:55 UTC 2020

Thanks.  I work from home currently, so yes, I can telecommute.  Of course
being a manger now for 3 years, no one thinks I can program in SAS any more.
So, we'll see.

I'm definitely working 2x harder (at minimum) and feel more "under the
thumb" while working from home.

One problem is your work is just a few steps away at any time.  It's
easy to work too many hours.

The "work from home" scenario has made it so I'm pulling more loose ends
together where people have decided rules need not apply.  This includes
'showing up' for online meetings or ensuring compliance.
