[03:54]<Quantos> G'morning guys.
[03:54]<@BC_Programming> hey Quantos
[03:54]<Quantos> Wow, you're up early
[03:55]<@BC_Programming> 3AM
[03:55]<Quantos> Yeah, it's 0400 here
[03:56]<@BC_Programming> heh just finished filing my hours for yesterday
[03:58]<Quantos> I just finished my first cup of coffee
[03:59]<Quantos> But the hours are important too I guess, getting paid is kind of nice...
[04:00]<Quantos> Do you do that daily? Submit your hours I mean.
[04:01]<@BC_Programming> I try to
[04:01]<Quantos> Good practice I think
[04:01]<@BC_Programming> it's on the mainframe I connect to on the VPN
[04:01]<Quantos> Oh there you go, nice and easy then
[04:02]<@BC_Programming> I try to fill out the memo fields of the work orders I worked on to add the details of the progress and any important changes, then I just plonk in the hours right in the WO and our software takes me right to the hours entry screen and fills it in for me
[04:02]<@BC_Programming> remembering what I Did sometimes to fill in the memo fields is the hard part :P
[04:02]<Quantos> Sweet, nice system
[04:02]<Quantos> Hehehheh
[04:03]<@BC_Programming> "Changed things and also stuff"
[04:03]<Quantos> LOL
[04:03]<Quantos> I bet they see that more than you might think
[04:05]<@BC_Programming> nah, all the 'memo's' are public, basically status updates attached to all the WOs
[04:05]<@BC_Programming> mine are usually longer than anybody elses but I haven't seen anything like that
[04:06]<Quantos> You'd be amazed what passed for safety paperwork when I was an Ironworker
[04:06]<Quantos> 'Hazards, keep eyes open'
[04:06]<@BC_Programming> "Fell from 10 stories. Appears to have broken leg. Given a bandage and told to walk it off"
[04:07]<@BC_Programming> "Will ensure that happens if they regain consciousness"
[04:07]<Quantos> LOL
[04:08]<Quantos> BRB, I'm gonna get some more coffee
[04:38] * jamer (uid12136@mib-DEE87C23.irccloud.com) has joined #glitchpc
[04:46]<+camerongray> Hey Quantos
[04:47]<Quantos> Heya Cam
[04:47]<Quantos> How's things this morning?
[04:47]<jamer> Morning
[04:47]<Quantos> Morning jamer
[04:47]<+camerongray> Crazy busy :P
[04:48]<jamer> So this girl I know I'm letting her borrow a laptop of mine (dell not my Acer)
[04:48]<Quantos> At least the time goes quick when you're busy
[04:48]<Quantos> Hehhe, it's always a girl :)
[04:49]<jamer> Well she did ask me to prom earlier in the week :p
[04:49]<Quantos> Nice
[04:49]<Quantos> And you said yes right?
[04:50]<jamer> Yeah
[04:50]<Quantos> Heheh, good boy
[04:51]<jamer> Its my windows 8 laptop also :p
[04:52]<Quantos> So how's she liking windoze 8?
[04:52]<+camerongray> Proms in the US seem so complicated :P
[04:53]<jamer> Quantos she's used to it from her moms laptop
[04:53]<Quantos> They're just as complicated here Cam
[04:53]<jamer> School dances lol
[04:53]<+camerongray> Ahh, here it was all easy :P
[04:54]<+camerongray> I mean, we hardly prepared anything :P
[04:54]<jamer> Usually its the guy asking the girl but for me its reversed
[04:54]<+camerongray> Ahh, for us there was no real "You must go with a partner" type thing
[04:54]<+camerongray> (Which was good :P)
[04:54]<Quantos> She's chasing you until you catch her jamer
[04:56]<jamer> Quantos yeah lol I know she likes me and all .. Now here's the kicker .. She had a bf but likes me and asked me to prom
[04:56]<@BC_Programming> BACK AWAY
[04:57]<Quantos> Cool jamer, go all in eh
[04:57]<+camerongray> lol, hey BC_Programming
[04:57]<@BC_Programming> "Homecoming" has always confused me. "Let's base a school-wide event on one of our athletic sports teams returning from playing away games"
[04:58]<Quantos> Well, with football players they aren't always smart enough to make it home, so it is somewhat a thing to celebrate...
[04:58]<@BC_Programming> hahah
[04:58]<@BC_Programming> "Hey Moose, how'd you find you're way back"?
[04:58]<@BC_Programming> "I dropped breadcrumbs"
[04:59]<Quantos> Then I had a snack for the way home...
[04:59]<@BC_Programming> or "But birds ate them so I crossed the street to get back here"
[05:00]<+camerongray> Yeah, schools in the US and Canada seem mental
[05:00]<+camerongray> Like with crazy sport teams and massive events
[05:00]<@BC_Programming> there is no homecoming here
[05:00]<@BC_Programming> just the standard celebration of receiving our zambonie licenses
[05:00]<+camerongray> Bahaha
[05:00]<Quantos> Yeah, England and Scotland know nothing about sports teams and craziness....
[05:00]<+camerongray> Go sports!
[05:01]<Quantos> Can you say RIOT BC?
[05:01]<@BC_Programming> Vancouver doesn't take their hockey team losing very well
[05:01]<jamer> Lol
[05:02]<@BC_Programming> "The Canucks lost a playoff game! TIME FOR THE LOOTING"
[05:02]<Quantos> Yeah, neither does Edmonton, but we only seem to riot on Canada Day.
[05:02]<@BC_Programming> See that never happens with chess clubs
[05:03]<Quantos> Well, it does, it's just called 'March of the Pawns.'
[05:03]<@BC_Programming> Actually that would be hilarious if there was
[05:03]<Quantos> Yep
[05:03]<@BC_Programming> "Did you see that? He left his queen WIDE OPEN! He needs a new coach, this is unbelievable"
[05:04]<@BC_Programming> "He's castling? In that situation?"
[05:04]<@BC_Programming> and then they could get aged Chess players from the past to provide stupid commentary while wearing ridiculous suits
[05:05]<Quantos> Oooh, I sense some hostility to the CBC?
[05:05]<Quantos> Or just Don Cherry?
[05:06]<Quantos> At least the CBC was smart enough to finally retire Harry Neil
[05:06]<@BC_Programming> "What he has to do now, is he has to get that rook into play, but you can see his opponent has blocked it; and with his king in check he's running out of options"
[05:06]<Quantos> Of course by then it was Obvious that dementia had set in.
[05:07]<@BC_Programming> I'm giggling thinking of instant replays for chess
[05:07]<@BC_Programming> "DID YOU SEE THAT MOVE! Let's play that back in slow motion..."
[05:07]<Quantos> 'Let's take another look at him releasing his bishop, masterful...'
[05:08]<@BC_Programming> "You can see how calm he is, very stoic in the face of overwhelming odds, and here you see the part, where his opponent realizes his new predicament"
[05:11]<@BC_Programming> Anyways so I heard apparently Bill Cosby punched a midget
[05:11]<Quantos> LOL
[05:11]<@BC_Programming> I can't believe he'd stoop so low (ba-dum-tish)
[05:12]<@BC_Programming> He really should have just walked away and been the bigger man
[05:12]<@BC_Programming> but that would have been a tall order
[05:12] * Quantos groans
[05:12]<@BC_Programming> heheh
[05:13]<jamer> I'm glad my truck starts this morning
[05:13]<@BC_Programming> so you can make your escape?
[05:13]<@BC_Programming> I'd leave but anywhere I go, there I am
[05:13]<Quantos> Yeah, I thought you liked this girl...
[05:14]<@BC_Programming> "oh great, it's me again"
[05:14]<jamer> My escape to school ... If that counts for something
[05:16]<@BC_Programming> I had a girlfriend once, it didn't last long. It was always "I don't know you" and "get out of my bushes" nag nag nag
[05:16]<Quantos> And always with the closing of the blindsl
[05:16]<Quantos> blinds
[05:16]<@BC_Programming> oh man don't remind me
[05:16]<@BC_Programming> always at the good part
[05:17]<@BC_Programming> I mean come on
[05:17]<@BC_Programming> have some consideration for others
[05:18]<Quantos> Nobody does anymore, they seem to care more about their own modesty...
[05:18]<Quantos> I'm considering selling my binoculars...
[05:21]<@BC_Programming> and I mean really, did you have the call the police? A man half naked staring in your window with a hungry look in his eye is 'suspicious'? that's just a stretch
[05:21]<@BC_Programming> could have at least offered some cheetos
[05:21]<Quantos> Or half that sandwich you were eating..
[05:22]<Quantos> And a big breast of milk on the side...
[05:22]<Quantos> Freudian slip there
[05:22]<@BC_Programming> don't worry about tit
[05:22]<Quantos> LOL
[05:23]<Quantos> Good pun, didn't see that one coming
[05:23]<Quantos> My coffee came out my nose
[05:24]<@BC_Programming> mission accomplished
[05:25]<@BC_Programming> I was thinking about when I went to the restaurant with my co-workers and realized something disturbing
[05:25]<Quantos> You were paying?
[05:25]<@BC_Programming> I was the only person to say thank you
[05:25]<Quantos> No way
[05:25]<@BC_Programming> eg. Waitress brings me another beer "thank you"
[05:26]<@BC_Programming> I should have started paying closer attention
[05:26]<@BC_Programming> oh well
[05:26]<Quantos> Nobody teaches their snot nosed brats any manners
[05:26]<@BC_Programming> they're all quite a bit older than me
[05:26]<jamer> I say thank you and all of that :p though I'm not snot nosed
[05:30]<@BC_Programming> Then again the waitress could have been Venus De Milo if I cut off her arms
[05:30]<Quantos> Yeah, but you go to jail for that now...
[05:32]<@BC_Programming> It was all part of my plan 1. Show manners like a normal person-> 2. ???? ->3. Somebody to trade pokemon cards with
[05:32]<Quantos> You don't play Magic? What kind of nerd are you?
[05:33]<@BC_Programming> "I've been meaning to ask you"... "I know what your question is and the answer is yes" "Awesome! Now, I've been trying to get a Base Set Clefairy"
[05:34]<@BC_Programming> "Wait I thought you were asking me out?" "well if you don't have a Base Set Clefairy I don't see us going anywhere"
[05:36]<@BC_Programming> my only regret is that I didn't get a larger steak
[05:37]<Quantos> hmmm, steak *drools*
[05:39]<Quantos> I told my girlfriend that I like listening to Buddy Guy and Chet Atkins.
[05:39]<Quantos> She said 'who are they'
[05:39]<Quantos> I told her it's not going to work out...
[05:39]<@BC_Programming> heh
[05:40]<Quantos> That's exactly what she said
[05:43]<@BC_Programming> oh here's a funny story
[05:43]<Quantos> Okay
[05:44]<@BC_Programming> I was bored one day and made an okcupid profile just to see wtf all that shiz was about
[05:44]<@BC_Programming> my god
[05:44]<@BC_Programming> crazy people
[05:44]<@BC_Programming> crazy people everywhere
[05:44]<@BC_Programming> oh also didn't help the whole axe-murderer spiel I had as text
[05:44]<Quantos> I know, I made a POF profile, and one guy and his wife wanted to know if I wanted to be their live in boyfriend
[05:45]<Quantos> I declined
[05:45]<@BC_Programming> though I made that change afterwards when I realized how hilarious it would be
[05:45]<@BC_Programming> see now if it was 5 female roomates
[05:45]<@BC_Programming> well, that would be worth consideration
[05:45]<@BC_Programming> for science and all that
[05:45]<Quantos> Exactly
[05:46]<@BC_Programming> Just don't give them names, or you'll get attached to them
[05:46]<Quantos> LOL
[05:47]<Quantos> Makes drowning them later more difficult does it?
[05:47]<@BC_Programming> "this hurts me more than it hurts you"
[05:47]<@BC_Programming> "oh, you can swim. Are you purposely making this awkward"
[05:48]<Quantos> The last time I said that it really did hurt me more than her, she had a tazer...
[05:48]<@BC_Programming> bear mace
[05:48]<@BC_Programming> that stuff hurts, it wasn't even sprayed at me, just in the store where I worked before
[05:49]<Quantos> Yeah, nasty stuff
[05:49]<@BC_Programming> What i don't get is why bears would use it
[05:50]<Quantos> And it looks nothing at all like a pointy club...
[05:51]<@BC_Programming> oh I guess you didn't hear about my bad times before I got this job, theres some nifty revenge in that story
[05:52]<Quantos> Oh yeah?
[05:53]<@BC_Programming> yeah none of us had Jobs so basically ended up homeless there, was able to move in with a 'family friend' for a ridiculous amount, she was moving to Calgary
[05:53]<@BC_Programming> Tenancy Agreement was signed even
[05:54]<@BC_Programming> Apparently her house was being foreclosed and I guess she was trying to run away because obviously if you just leave the bank is totally cool with it
[05:55]<@BC_Programming> tried to tell us to leave on a specific date after she left, that didn't happen because you know you need 2 months notice
[05:56]<@BC_Programming> I Don't know the story but apparently she was giving the house to her drug dealer (wtf) for who knows why
[05:56]<Quantos> LOL
[05:57]<@BC_Programming> WEll since we were living there
[05:57]<@BC_Programming> he was a bit less than happy with her
[05:57]<@BC_Programming> and then she goes ape on us about it saying all sorts of stuff
[05:57]<@BC_Programming> typical thing you'd expect from a teenager really
[05:59]<Quantos> Wow
[05:59]<@BC_Programming> it was awesome
[05:59]<Quantos> Yeah, I'll bet eh
[05:59]<@BC_Programming> my favourite part was when the bank reposessed the property after we had found a new place and they ended up just ripping the house down
[06:00]<@BC_Programming> I did like her attempt to have our power shut off, that was funny
[06:03]<@BC_Programming> or when she tried to get me to do crack, that was less funny but it sure was illustrative
[06:03]<@BC_Programming> hmm that seems like a poor revenge story now that I think of it
[06:03]<Quantos> LOL
[06:03]<@BC_Programming> The best revenge is living well I suppose
[06:05]<Quantos> And drug free eh?
[06:06]<@BC_Programming> ahh yes that too
[06:06]<@BC_Programming> perhaps a bit of doxxing is in order
[06:07]<Quantos> Hehehe

[13:46]<+camerongray> Hey Calum
[13:46]<@Calum> hey camerongray
[13:47]<+camerongray> Currently in coursework hell :P
[13:47]<@Calum> being given too much, or "oops, forgot these are all due tomorrow"?
[13:47]<+camerongray> Just really complicated
[13:47]<+camerongray> And in Haskell
[13:48]<@Calum> ahh
[13:48]<+camerongray> I have part of it working, just takes 9 mins on my laptop and 5 mins on the compute server when it should take <1min on one of the workstations which vary between Core 2 Duo and i5 3470
[13:48]<+camerongray> But haskell is impossible to actually debug
[13:48]<@Calum> heh
[13:49]<+camerongray> Think I'll go to Domino's :P
[13:49]<+camerongray> Can't do homework while eating something healthy
[13:49]<@Calum> always a good idea
[13:49]<+camerongray> coursework*
[13:49]<@Calum> the more unhealthy the food the better when dealing with anything technical IMO
[13:49]<+camerongray> haha yeah
[13:49]<@Calum> I built my best systems while dining on McDonald's finest
[13:50]<+camerongray> Oh yeah, issue is that McDonald's is pretty far away so the walk to get it would be seen as "healthy"
[13:50]<@Calum> we can't have that
[13:50]<@Calum> if only they delivered
[13:50]<+camerongray> I really want to try to see if domino's would deliver to the lab :P
[13:50]<@Calum> heh
[13:51]<@Calum> we used to get it delivered to ocuk all the time
[13:51]<@Calum> for names such as "lyka boss"
[13:51]<+camerongray> haha
[13:51]<+camerongray> Special instructions - "Go to back door, it's broken so just pull really hard and ignore the alarm, then get in lift and go to level 5, door straight ahead - Bang on it loudly"
[13:51]<@Calum> haha
[13:52]<+camerongray> Security is a bit of a joke - It's easier to just yank the door than to actually muck about with cards
[13:52]<+camerongray> And they never seem to notice the alarm that goes off :P
[13:52]<@Calum> hehe
[13:52]<+camerongray> because the same alarm goes off if you leave the door open more than like 5 seconds
[13:52]<@Calum> ah nice
[13:55]<+camerongray> Now must find a discount code for Domino's - Can never pay full price
[13:55]<@Calum> indeed
[13:56]<+camerongray> I wonder if the guy will glare at us again after our last incident with them :P
[13:56]<+camerongray> Think I told you about that one
[13:56]<@Calum> hm, not sure
[13:57]<+camerongray> Well, they got our order wrong so we sent an angry email
[13:57]<+camerongray> Got the stock "You can have your order again for free" email
[13:57]<+camerongray> £140 order :P
[13:57]<@Calum> haha
[13:57]<+camerongray> Needless to say, they now hate us in that branch
[13:58]<+camerongray> All because they managed to give one of the pizzas completely wrong
[13:58]<@BC_Programming> was that the "pepperoni" pizza
[13:58]<+camerongray> Oh, that was a separate time I went in on my own
[13:58]<@BC_Programming> lol
[13:58]<+camerongray> Yeah Calum - I got a pepperoni pizza, they just forgot the pepperoni
[13:59]<+camerongray> Come to think of it, I bet they did it because it was me, They really do hate us!
[13:59]<@BC_Programming> yeah, dang customers keeping them in business
[13:59]<+camerongray> Yes, "Deepak" - I'm talking about you!
[13:59]<@Calum> lol
[13:59]<+camerongray> He found it absolutely hilarious how they got the order wrong
[14:00]<@Calum> really?
[14:00]<@BC_Programming> there should be a pizza place where all the delivery drivers are women
[14:00]<+camerongray> Yeah
[14:01]<@Calum> so they can crash before delivering it?
[14:01]<+camerongray> Then next time we went in he sniggered "I'll try not to get it wrong this time" - then we gave them the email...
[14:01]<@BC_Programming> shots fired!
[14:01]<+camerongray> I've never seen someone so teriffied when getting the manager
[14:01]<+camerongray> Nor have I seen a manager anywhere literally about to scream
[14:03]<@Calum> heh
