I didn't do much today.
I got up, watched some tv, my mate that I go to dinner with, and work with now, called me to tell me about the whinging messages people had left on the answer service.
I really don't care if people are having problems with email. They choose to use Lookout, they choose to try to email 20MB bitmaps to each other. People are dumb, and when they decide to actually learn the correct ways to do things, and then have issues, I will happily help them, because there will be no issues, because we won't have to worry about the mail server grinding to a halt trying to deal with stupid users.
It is Saturday, they are not paying for 24/7 support, so they are not getting it, especially not from me. I will be working my 3 days/week, and that is all. If people want to pay me $50/hr during the week to deal with their issues out of hours, and $100/hr on the weekends, then I will help them, otherwise they can help themselves, or wait until I decide to deal with their nonsense.
Anyway, I gave yes/no answers to his queries about the issues, I really don't care on the weekend.
I went back to watching tv.
My mate that I was going to start the ISP with/got a new hard drive called me, he'd had Foxtel installed, and wanted to know about getting some extra channels, I told him I needed to see his card to make one, I might sort it out later.
I went and bought some food.
I watched more tv.
I decided to have a shower, since all my skin is peeling off and it's gross. The cold shower was too much, I couldn't handle it, so I didn't end up getting much of it off.
My mate called with user's problems again, one person wanted to know their adsl password. Sorry, but we don't keep them on record. Tell them that I will be available on Tuesday, and I might be able to recover the password from their computer.
The customer that wanted that done called me shortly after, so I just told them exactly what I had just told my mate to tell them. Far out, it's the weekend, don't expect anything from me on the weekend unless you want to pay for it. I'm busy on Monday, you can't just expect me to be available for your purposes 2 days before the fact.
I went back to watching tv.
I did some washing up.
I ate some fish and chips for dinner.
I went to bed about 2am, I setup the Tivo to record Rage so I wouldn't have to sit up and watch it.
