Another 14 hour day!
- Thread starter HEADRAT
- Start date
Longest shift I ever did was 30 hours 
08:00 Friday morning to 14:00 Saturday afternoon - most of it spent down in a drilling mud tank on a supply boat, cleaning (hard graft too).
I was a little tired after that.

The above was about 18 years ago, the same thing would have me in bed for a week now

This thread makes me sick. If you can use a mouse, it isn't a proper OS.

Out of interest, is working at Microsoft as laid back as I've been lead to believe watching Channel9 videos? I seem to remember hearing something about employees being allowed to play on XBOX 360s placed around the office when the urge takes them? Or are you one of the people they lock up in the basement and force to do all the dirty work?
I sure hope you're clued up on semantic web design, usability etc.nikebee said:i've got all week off in preperation for my new job with a web design company

I also remember trying to Install Linux around 1995 - oh dear....
Slackware iirc *probably still got the disks around somewhere*
Got it up and running after oooh....5 days or so.
Went back to Windows95 around a week later.
P166 with 64mb EDO ram with a 6.4gb Quantum Bigfoot storage drive and a 2gb SCSI boot drive. 4mb Matrox Millennium and a Soundblaster 16 card as well...
Was almost top of the line back then..Although still have a Linux webserver - it's still not as easy as XP to install/configure/use - but it's getting better. Wish I could get it to ignore capatilisations though...

Pah. Lightweights.
I installed Unix on a Mac way back in 1991. That's almost a decade prior to OS X.
Can't honestly remember how I did it, but I definitely did. I remember compiling X11 on it. God that was slow.
And yes, I'm still working. Well, 50/50 browsing/working.
