What Do You Do 4 A Living?


Recommended Posts

Im in the one that has the radiation poisoning - building 108 in bourke street.

Come to think of it, my head gets heated up very quickly when im revising for exams...perhaps..... :)

Infamous building 108....I'm currently studying at building 108 - Diploma of I.T.

I'm more worried about their air conditioning system, i don't think it's been cleaned for a while, i always cop allergies :)

How many more are studying at this building?

I take care of all the IT stuff at J-Spec Imports... although I'm leaving soon to move to Sydney, and I'll only be doing server maintenance/coding for J-Spec remotely.

Good job, you get to network with a LOT of people and companies in the import industry, which is awesome if I need spare parts, aftermarket parts, tuning and servicing.

Waste time looking at SAU while awaiting customers to come into the shop and annoy me with ...

"whats your VERY BEST price for this Laptop, as I can get it for less than you have on it at......."

ARH-OOO-GAH, CAUTION - Mini advert follows.....:)

My unheeded response is usually

"yes, but do they give you a year of FREE labour service on ANY problem with the laptop including software and viruses as well as hardware damage like spilling liquid in the keyboard, dropping it and everything thats NOT Warranty??"

Funny how nobody is interested in that aspect unil they find they have viruses etc. and find its NOT covered by warranty.

Anyway most people with laptop problems seem to find us helpful......

    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
    • Yes, a plan for non-action is always my first sort of plan! I'm happy to see what falls out of invision's update. I had been having some thoughts on what to do with this the other day and they all seem to have fled my memory, after various solar panel induced traumas, squeaking suspension sphericals, etc etc, over the last little bit. I'll try and recall what I had in mind and make sure that I put it into print in some form before the Alzheimer's strikes again.
    • The ability to have both a 5500 stall for launching, and a regular lockup for every other scenario is pretty sweet. Does it actually work well like that though in the real world? Would it hold up to track use and otherwise you'd never know you had a stall converter in it? If so, that's awesome
    • The thing is, once the content has been tagged we can chop and change the end result as much as we want. Its identifying the content in the first place that needs to be done regardless of the final outcome.
    • Sorry @GTSBoy I thought I'd replied here. There's a new BIG version of invision coming out soon, it might be worth waiting until that happens as it contains a lot of improved functionality for tags. My suggestion would be to add a top level page (not thread) with some info on it and then link to sub pages for various topics. We could even just start really simple with 2 or 3 pages underneath it. Those pages could just have a view (like a pre configured search result) of the tags we choose to put on it. We could have some background or an intro on each of these pages. My only issue is that while admins and mods can update the existing content to contain the tags we want, new posts can have whatever tags the author wants. That said, the reason our tags are so messy is because of that, so maybe we restrict tagging to admins/mods in edits.
