Who invented these things?

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

So, with the new schedule I’m getting home later, leaving me less time to listen to podcasts. I’m not able to listen to podcasts on my laptop while working on my desktop anymore either, so, again, less time to listen to podcasts. I’m trying to move the podcasts to my MP3 player to listen to at lunch or while walking from the parking garage downtown to my office. But I have a question.

What kind of sadist invented those little earbuds? Seriously, either they won’t stay in my ears, or they are ridiculously uncomfortable! Grr!

Yeah, this is one of the million little things that are different with the new job that I haven’t exactly adjusted to yet. All in good time grasshopper… 🙂

It apparently gives you the hosting location of the site you’re on and lets you easily report phishing sites. Anyone been using this and have any feedback on how well it works? I…

    I see from the results that I didn’t manage to win the Weblog Award I was up for this year. (Best Flappy Birds Ecosystem Level Blog) Oh well, congrats to the winners and thanks to the few people who did actually feel the need to vote for me, I do appreciate it! Every vote was…

    I’m sure by now we’ve all heard the horror stories of working on a helpdesk, and after 7 plus months working on one I can totally see exactly where they’re coming from, and even have a few of my own. On the other hand, one thing that I get working on a helpdesk far more…

    You know, staying home and resting seemed like a good idea, until I noticed that the currently-vacant house next door is having some rather loud repairs done to it, and every recorded-message telemarketing firm in existence has decided to call our house this afternoon! Grr! Hopefully Jason remembers to bring the extra wireless access point…
