Lot of snow here (what would you expect?), but ice under it and you have to be carefull if you want to keep your feets unbroken... I almost fell on the way to the store.

No snow here. It has been freezing a bit lately. But today it was raining and the wind made it pretty cold as well. I just hope it will be dry tomorrow evening when I've got to cycle to my prom-like party. At least it's better than paying big $ for a taxi and my father has to work next day so I won't ask him.
But first exam Dutch tomorrow Have to write a piece on patents on genes. Doubt that was a good choice. Today I had to write 450 words on euthanasia for English but I ended up with 515 and nobody knows how many words you were allowed to write more or less. And I still feel stupid for putting 515 as number of words instead of slightly a bit less. At least I hope they'll recount the words now so they at least know I was honest instead of some others who just wrote they had 50 words less. But actually I think it's bs, I wasn't finished yet with 450 words. And those last were really needed to get a few things out of the way. I only talked about 3 superficial arguments. Why don't they just look if the piece is good instead of how many times you wrote 10 words too much. I count on a 10% deviation which gives me 20 words too much. Hope they don't take that too heavy. But next time they really should say how much is allowed. I don't think this test is worth a retake but maybe I have to now |

how about a company that had to keep coming back every week to finx a broken AC in the middle of a heat wve because they do not know how to fix it to begin with? and they did this for 3 months.

It would have been less expensive for them to replace it entirely rather than send out so many tech visits. Why are so many "technicians" apparently so incompetent? [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img]

Just imagine your reaction to being a repasirman. That should show you what kind of folks go into it. Not at all like window washing technicians, mind. They are some of nature's noblemen.
