Friday! Always a good day. Sort of. One machine ate all of its disk space for silly reasons. This was not insanely hard to fix, but it took some time to figure out where everything had gone wrong.
Those of us who went out to lunch took advantage of the cooler weather to walk all the way to the Hero Factory. This was probably a good move. We all got subs made with good ingredients, we didn’t have to walk through blazing heat to do it, and one of the women working behind the counter had some sort of automatic pistol in a holster on her hip. (Most people can openly carry firearms in Arizona; this tends to freak people from California, Chicago, NYC, and Washington DC out.) I didn’t get a chance to ask what make and model the pistol was—though it looked like a compact Glock 9mm. Ah well.
Not much else. Tired tonight. Next week will be interesting because of a bunch of junk that’s happening at work.

Follow-up comment rss or Leave a TrackbackAdventures with the AC Unit (continued): I sit in the NWC cubicle of the modular office building for work for the past two years. I found out this week that the thermostat that brings ‘cool air’ to my cubicle was covered up by an aerial photograph and set to ‘heat’ since last winter. The AC unit is on the eastern part of the building, and the thermostat is on the eastern side.
I told my coworker: “I’ve never felt cool air coming from my air vent in the past two years until this week.”
No wonder this past summer I’ve been feeling warm both at home and at work. And on Friday, there was no air coming out from my vent. I heard that the maintenance people changed the settings on Thursday night and the ‘office’ people can’t reprogram the thermostat without the password. Also, the discussion with another co-worker that there could be potentially inefficient duct work leading from the west side to the east side of the building is still a possibility. There is a temperature differential.
