  • Depends on the field you’re in. At my previous company to release a new system for internal use only I had to go through 19 validations(each one 50-100 pages of manual tests). None of it had real source control except uploading final zip of files(no source code, just the enable files).

    I wrote all the files, wrote all the test cases, wrote all the documentation, executed everything and wrote most of the reports. They just fired me last week so hope they have fun when they need to update something…

    Reminds me of a time several years ago when I went to pick up the kid from a new day care. I walked up to the desk and said “hi, I’m here to pick up a kid” and the woman behind the counter said “no problem, what’s the kids name?”. Her face went pale and she panicked when I responded “it doesn’t matter, I’m not picky”…



  • I always viewed relationships as a matter of trust. The difficult part of being cheated on isn’t knowing another dick has been in that pussy or another pussy has been around that dick. In most cases that has happened before you ever got together. The difficult part is the doubts. “is she really staying late for work?” “is he helping a friend move or moving her organs around?” “is she not responding because she’s busy or because she is fucking” those questions are what’s hard. Then “well if they lied about that what else are they lying about?”

    It’s all about trust. Once you cheat you break that trust. I even told my partner if she was honest about it, it wouldn’t be a big deal. If she lied then she is dead to me forever.

    I’ve told this story before but years ago(probably 2 if not 3 decades ago) I liked a song where a guy made sounds like “ohh bada bada bop ba” instead of actually singing. The only real line he sang that I remembered was “I’m the scat man”… So I went on to kazza, yes this was that long ago, and found a video called “scat man” and downloaded it… I hope I don’t have to explain it was NOT a music video!




  • Funny story of the at one about 10 years ago I rented a room in a house with these two old(60+) alcoholics. We split the cable/internet bill, normally it was $270 a month ($90 per person). At the time I was about to move across the country and was doing business trips back and and forth. This month I was there for about 1 week. The cable bill came in and it was close to a grand.

    They wanted me to pay $350 and I said no! I called the cable company and asked why it was so high. They said it was from like 14 porn movies being purchased all from one cable box(I never even unboxed mine) over a week end. They gave me the serial of the box and I checked all the boxes. I found out who it was, I payed my $90 dollars and told them to figure out the rest. I moved out the end of the next month, never did learn what happened to the bill(wasn’t in my name thankfully).
