Back at work

Hi,

I'm back at work today. I tried really hard to eat my breakfast, and I'm only feeling a little dizzy so I'm sure I'll be fine. :-)

Hope everyone has a nice Friday.

:-) M

Oh that's great Nick! I'm really happy for you. I had horrible dreams. Well they weren't that bad... but they weren't great. And there definitely wasn't any monkeys.

I had terrible dreams. Basically a friend of mine gave me a boob job for $105. Then all my friends ate something that would turn them into monkeys and then got mad with me because I didn't want to eat it and read a book instead. Then I flew over the street whilst holding two hand weights and then got grossed out by all the hu-hu grubs in the ground trying to get into my bag. Then a small child broke all the chairs and left the door open.

Mindy said...

Well your bag was in my dream too Kirsty! Although no hu hu grubs. But you'd left it somewhere, and I was really worried that you'd need it so I think I went to try and find you. But I can't really remember.

And I say good on your for not eating the monkey-turning stuff. Also bloody kids.

Mindy said...

Nick are you saying you want a $105 boob job?

Mindy said...

Oh I just wanted to put out a huge thank you to Zaphod Beeblebrox for that awesome poem yesterday. If you didn't read it you should it was super!

Anonymous said...

right, sure, why not.

Hope you are ok Mindy! I am feeling tired but I am still at work yah!

Mindy said...

Wow Kirsty you're doing awesome!

I'm quite well, I'll be at the gym again tomorrow no doubt! I still don't really have an appetite tho. Maybe I had too many chips last night.

I'm also trying not to work myself too hard today, don't want to tire myself out ;-)

Hey everyone, I got an (unofficial about to be official) job offer from MSO New York!

Everyone say ah..........

Its still in ChCh, even though it is called MSO New York.

I had to sit a test. They asked about singletons, which was fun because I am an expert. I said:

1) The constructor needs to be private.
2) There needs to be a (threadsafe) property that exposes the single instance
3) The class needs to be "final" to prevent indirect usage through inheritence

I felt clever.

Mindy said...

Do you think you'll take it?

Anonymous said...

I might. It sounds like they would fight for the privelage of having me. Which means $$ probably.

Not as much .Net as I would like, but there is a multimedia element that always has interested me. Their apps are quite glitzy to appeal to the wall street type clients.

I am very sleepy. I am considering sleeping for 16 hours.

Fun to say and do: frottage.

BTW, sorry for carrying on the slight pornography theme. I hope you dont get fired Mindy.

Wow Andrew that's amazing. I thought I knew what a Singleton was but I only knew the first point you have there. I bet that's why all my software keeps failing. However did you find all this out? What's your source buddy? Are you this knowledgeable about all aspects of software development or simply design patterns?

Mindy said...

Ew! We are talking about design patterns on my blog. Ew ew ew. Oh who am I kidding... I love design patterns.

And my main source is actually MSDN, which I believe Bill Gates writes all of (as well as all the software).

So I am a bit suspicious of this alleged commenter.

Well I got offered it!

Salary would be $55k going to $60k after 6 months based on performance. What does everything think?

I have intimate knowledge of just the singleton really, I use it so much. The other ones I look up and hum and har over. It was a fluke!

Mindy said...

I will tell you what I think when I come to pick you up in very few minutes
