      How can you run a business so incompetently, that one week you're running employees into the ground at 70+ hours a week and the next not have enough orders to produce a 40 hour week? I understand a port strike has had adverse consequences on business, but you can't honestly expect to keep people like this. Glad I'm already looking elsewhere

        Right now I am writing the most boring "dissertation" ever. The subject is quality control (EN ISO 9000 ff for example), due Friday.

                Coffee at my school… Well, I would not call it coffee. I don´t think they use water. Or coffee.

                    Our system run amuck @jdl1279.  People are the least of their concerns.

                      That's my plan everyday. And I'm still rolling at 3am. I don't understand it.

                        And laid off…arrrgggghhh!!! At least I now know it to be a port strike as the culprit. Seems we haven't been getting some of the materials required for production and management chose not to say anything down line. I wanted to find something else anyway, but not how I would've liked it to go down

                            Yeah, been looking and have one in particular I'm hoping for. Unfortunate enough it doesn't pick up for a couple weeks, if I get it. I hated where I was, but it paid the bills at least. There seems to be an abundance of good spots available right now, so all likely for the better.

                                    High here is supposed to be 79 (26°C). Yup, sounds like spring.

                                        Thx to EZB for increasing the amount of the Euro within last days!!!! …for instance the price for the IHWE-Build Nr. 5 is nearly 100 € more now.

                                          Not entirely the EZB's fault on that one:

                                          @den213:

                                          I just coincidentally checked the price on this jacket (since I want to grab one) and it has increased by nearly 50 € over night… gotta love the € >:(.

                                          It is now correct.  I found a bug in the system that was not automatically updating the exchange rates as it should have been.  All € purchases for the last month have been at a "beneficial" rate for the purchaser…..
