You know what really grinds my gears? The Gears Strike Back

Yes.

Bader is a sack of…

Yeah I have too… Annoying

Ah but computers need time to themselves to relax as well - all part of the new caring sharing RAFAC

Yep Bader is becoming unusable on parade nights for us

2020 flashbacks in Batfink’s cave today.

Secondary school has closed for Year 7/8/9. But they have set a very large amount of “virtual learning” - so now we’re back to Batfink doing home schooling for the day…

Work are not impressed. The kids are not impressed either. I’m not entirely sure I’m impressed either.

BUT. I’m not blaming the teachers for today.

it bothers me more than it should that the CBAT IBN has “Air Training Corp”

Why should Air Training Corps bother you?

Because it’s missing the ‘s’ from the end of Corps?

The one that annoys me is people pronouncing Corps as Corpse…

GMG. It’s new laptop day at work!!! I’ve been around long enough that I’ve qualified for a corporate sponsored replacement. It should be a happy day… but it’s not.

  1. despite assurances from IT that my “profile” is linked, and everything will seemlessly migrate, it hasn’t.
  2. I’ve just had to individually rebuild my favourites.
  3. All my saved passwords have been lost and they didn’t migrate my password saver software
  4. The “delete” button has been replaced by a power button - so I keep putting the laptop in standby.
  5. There’s no VGA connection… so now I need a new docking station and HDMI cables to make my monitors work
  6. I’ve gone from 17" to 15" because “17” isn’t standard for corporate replacements". This wasn’t what you said 2 weeks ago when I was assured of a “like to like” replacement.
  7. MS Access has been “desupported” by IT - I need to raise a business case to have it reinstalled. The same business case I made 7 years ago when I needed it.
  8. I’ve just had to add my email footer as, apparently, that should be “attached to my profile when i log in”. Nope.
  9. I’ve just lost half a day of actual work trying to get everything setup following my “seamless migration”.
  10. ARGH.

To be fair, VGA is ancient history. It would be easier to make the business case for new monitors

Yeah; they are my monitors. And they have HDMI ports - i’ve just been relying on an old docking station which worked via VGA. But now I can’t use it to maximise my real estate. Until Amazon prime me my replacement (tomorrow) I’ll just have to make do with two screens rather than 3!!

Pleased I’m not the only one that does that since changing laptops. On everything else you have my sympathies, must be bloody frustrating

He did well for Luton for a number of years and I hope he makes the most of any parachute he’s given as he always seemed to come across as genuine when speaking in a private capacity.

I think maybe Southampton have just been punching for a while and shouldn’t have been up in the Prem in the first place!
