So, this place I'm working at now offers a ridiculous amount of time off. I have PTO that accrues overtime (8.12 hours per month) and is uncapped, I have 4 paid holiday days every year, I have a day off of my choosing for my birthday (within 2 weeks of the date), and sick time that accrues at the same rate of PTO but is capped. To top all that off, I only have to work 7.5 hours and get paid for a full 8 and I can take paid time to go to doctor's visits without reducing my PTO or holiday balances.

I don't even know how you'd use all that.

With my girlfriend, cop friend is trying to convince a judge that he should just drop the ticket against my girlfriend and we are working on what needs to be done for the insurance. I think fighting the insurance is a futile endeavor, but I guess we will do it anyway.

Something for you friday:

Take a look at this query I just stumbled on, I feel like there is Something a little redundant in it:

SELECT
    *
FROM
    (
    SELECT
        O.ORG_ID,
        O.ORG_NAME,
        ORG_NAME_ALIAS,
        O.ADDR_CITY
    FROM
        ORG_SEARCH O
    WHERE
        O.ORG_TYPE_ICD IN( 10919,
        13121 )
        AND O.DELETED_IND = 'N'
        AND O.VENDOR_ON_HOLD_FG = 'N'
    ORDER BY
        O.ORG_NAME ASC )

lol maybe it's just cause it's early but that took me a second to spot, nice.

Got lots to hammer out so I've been hyper focused on getting shit done...wish me luck

I wonder how much cold and flu medicine I can take before I find David S. Pumpkins in my code, or Lego Hobbit game?

[NeoTifa]

I don't get it, what's up with that code?

Finally released that piece of crap project to prod. Not so much a pos anymore but I just still hate it. Had a big ol' release party in the teamspace with all the important people here. If I had remembered I wouldn't've worn a tshirt and hoodie :x

It has SELECT [ALL] FROM (SELECT [SPECIFIC_COLUMNS] FROM [SPECIFIC_TABLE])

Could have just been:

SELECT [SPECIFIC_COLUMNS] FROM [SPECIFIC_TABLE]

I have 2 questions.

• Who is the Hooded blue pop and what are they from?
  
• Why Nickki Cage?

[NeoTifa]

Ah thanks, I don't deal with databases typically, it's my weak spot technically, so I'm not that versed in SQL queries.

1: Hooded = Ana Amari, the sniper healer from Overwatch

Spoiler

Not hooded = Dr. Angela Ziegler aka Mercy, the angel pimp cane healer from Overwatch

Spoiler

2: Why not? He's the One True God.

Someone thought they were being cute with the query.

Off to a really bad start this morning, but my one assignment got graded and it was .5 pts (out of 5) more than I was expecting and one of my 2 assignments due tomorrow got pushed back a week.

@ Neo, if it helps any; My day started with breaking one of my nails and I have no emery boards or clippers with me so I just have one very short jagged nail out of 10.

So far - 100% of my meetings today have ran 20-30 minutes longer than scheduled.

I just won a Sonos Play One w/ Alexa in a drawing at work. Things are looking up. XD Can't wait to get it and spam "Alexa, play Despacito" to annoy my neighbors.

Spent my weekend at the RMAF, was a great time with a _ton_ of audio equipment. Definitely worth the price of entry ($40)... now I just need to become a multi-millionaire so I can afford the awesome equipment I have been drooling over... but that is going to take time (at best). In the meantime, I also found some awesome headphones that are more in my price range; and possibly will wind up with a new AMP and DAC (though that gets a bit more expensive again).

Making excellent progress on all of my projects since my old boss has been told she's not allowed to give me random assignments without going through my new boss first.

On the home front, the hubs is home with a mancold and is slightly pissed at me because I told him he's not allowed to yell at and punish the kids over something stupid this time.

When he's sick, he's cranky.as.fuuuuuck. He's been sick twice before in the entire duration of our relationship. The first time, he changed all the wifi passwords and grounded the kids for a month because he went to get a cup of hot tea and we were out of teabags. Then he went online and ordered a CASE of tea bags (which now live on the top shelf of our bedroom closet so he will have tea available anytime he's sick for the rest of his freaking life). The second time, he threatened to tear their bedrooms apart and grounded them for two weeks because he couldn't find his favorite stupidspoon (that's the official name now... it's not his spoon, it's his stupidspoon). I came home livid and threatened to box up every piece of silverware in the house and dump it in the Goodwill donation bin. Eat with your damned fingers, I don't care, but I'm not having a household in turmoil over something as trivial as a stupidspoon.

Troubleshooting issues for support today while trying to document a systems current state of functionality. I hate documentation, when I have to be the one to do it.



Need to schedule my next trip to the range and figure out how to afford all the ammo I want to purchase. Somehow, making more money means less for ammo. Previously I would buy thousands of rounds at a time and a trip meant 300-600 rounds fired. Now, I am lucky if I can do 100; something just doesn't seem right about that!
