Today in the office

Today in the office

Yippie, managed to sell off 3 bottles of pineapple tarts from "Auntie" - my mother's Indonesian friend.  No, no kickbacks.  This is my support for her, in return for 20 odd years of goodies from Indonesia.  I'll usually buy a bottle or two for each office I've worked in, for them to munch and them tempt them :p

Today, I was setting up a new PC.  Cos of space constraints, I laid my 1st PC flat, then stack my 2nd PC on top of it.  With my USB ioniser supplying light, I crawled over my PCs to do the connections.  Very soon, I got a bite on my forearm; I even thought I heard a buzz.  Half a second later, I got another bite on my fingers.  I threw myself backwards and was in a little state of shock.  "Medic!..", I whined to my colleagues.

Okay, so I was reckless.  Someone also never do a proper grounding job on the chasis of my 1st PC.  Lucky for me that the floor is carpetted, I think.

So now if you visit my cubicles, you'll see my 2 PCs, stacked on top of another, with 2 cardboard boxes seperating them.
