| penguin42 | I think I need to build a wonderwall | 12:56 |
|---|---|---|
| zxmpi | with blackjack and hookers? | 12:59 |
| penguin42 | I live near Manc's Heaton Park which is going to get 4 lots of Oasis next year | 13:01 |
| zxmpi | then check the builders skips for genuine guaranteed original wonderwall over next few months :-P | 13:03 |
| daftykins | hah a client employee asked their manager to message me for tips on ticket sales for them earlier today | 13:08 |
| daftykins | the things they think tech folk are going to be useful for *facepalm* | 13:09 |
| zxmpi | i once had to diagnose a washing machine problem :-) | 13:17 |
| penguin42 | did you have to do a clean install? | 13:23 |
| zxmpi | nah it was a rtfm issue. no one reads manuals. | 14:06 |
| daftykins | xD | 14:07 |
| daftykins | i just had an x-ray service guy over from England to service two machines at separate practices, then assist with a software update and server migration - i had to solve a few blockers myself 'cause he didn't fancy reading the manuals | 14:08 |
| penguin42 | you can see right through him | 15:52 |
| daftykins | :) | 15:56 |
| zxmpi | you do wonder if he's more radioactive than a banana working that job | 16:15 |
| penguin42 | assuming it's actually X-ray it shouldn't be | 16:33 |
| daftykins | they always step out to the other side of lead lined walls to test fire | 16:36 |
| zxmpi | they're supposed to, yes | 16:37 |
| daftykins | well at my 3 practices the firing buttons are outside so you can't really cheat that | 16:38 |
| zxmpi | you'll be expecting real lead in the radiation shields next :-P | 16:40 |
| daftykins | and real teeth in the patients! | 16:41 |
| daftykins | my concern with the UK engineer grew when it transpired he had not been informed of the scope of the work, so he didn't bring any personal notes on a laptop that would have helped | 16:44 |
| daftykins | but i took the old fashioned approach, i read the manuals for old + new | 16:44 |
| zxmpi | newbie? | 16:44 |
| daftykins | nope quite seasoned | 16:44 |
| daftykins | although i'd met him 2-3 years ago for the installation of a newer model machine at my first practice here by my home, i uh... had to lend a hand then, too... you might say | 16:45 |
| daftykins | it's all good though, at least he's humble enough to accept input | 16:45 |
| penguin42 | did he bring jaffacakes? | 16:55 |
| zxmpi | exotic jaffa cakes from foreign lands... | 16:56 |
| daftykins | barely had the clothes on his back! | 16:56 |
