people who, when they don't understand an answer, just ask the same question again.

if you are going to ask me the exact same question - you are getting the exact same answer.

if you don't understand the answer, then you need to ask a DIFFERENT QUESTION - not just repeat the same thing. obviously you didn't get it, but if you just repeat yourself, I don't know WHAT you didn't get. ask me a question about what I said or the piece you didn't understand. do not just repeat the same effing thing.

More often than not this is a client who doesn't like the answer you gave them, so they try asking again in a different way, hoping that they can catch you saying something contradictory.

Latest update to Windows 10. It has slowed my laptop to a crawl.

Linux was a misspelled Peanuts character back in the mid 70s. I did Fortran and BASIC with some Assembler thrown in.

PL/1 says hi. It's nice to meet somebody older than I.

You should play this. You would really enjoy it.

Got some help from a third shift person this morning. However, the help was short lived. She got upset that the tank she cleaned was dirty. She took her ball and went home, claiming we were picking on her. No, if a tank isn't clean, we send it back and fix it. Cross contamination is a legitimate threat where I work...

So.. remember this thing?

This is a HUGE gear grinder. We used to get health insurance discounts with biometric screening - if you met certain numbers, you got the discount (not perfect - but, whatever).

Now they've instituted a new program. You have to register online, and then track your activities/moods/every ****ing thing, and put it all on some website, every single day. When you do this, you are rewarded with points that convert to discounts on your health insurance. You can take challenges with your team! Share your activities! It's fun! :rolleyes:

I found out last week you get ZERO credit for any workouts, steps or activities, unless you have a digital activity tracker, like a Fitbit.

So even if I do every single thing on their list (and believe me, not one person on the planet is going to do THAT), I STILL wouldn't get the premium discount, because I don't own a digital device. :mad:

I've never had a problem with Win10, but plenty of other people complain about it. Weird.

Every OS Sucks - still relevant. :p

Exhibit A They don't really want to motivate you. They want to say they do and then put up multiple barriers for you to achieve that have nothing to do with a goal. I hate insurance companies.
