My phone/ISP :down:

I was working with some IT Support staff in South Africa about the problem but no one has gotten back to me in days :smirk:
I reported the problem on the 12th and today is the 21st and still no resolution..

Considering a change of scenery (ISP) as the grass certainly looks greener for my perspective right now..

Off to google internet connection plans with local providers (another minefield)

Started a new job a month ago in the same company, but alas, i appear to fucking hate it. My direct collegues are the three most boring cunts i've met in years and the work itself is mindnumbingly dull and uninteresting. It was a promotion and i make a lot more money now, but i haven't gone to work feeling good about it since the first day. Fuck this i decided yesterday, i'm going to look for another job - i worked too long in a job i hated before and i almost ended up hanging myself, plus almost six years working for this place is about enough. Got a permanent contract so that's nice, i can just mess about here until i find something.

Guess who went to work with a smile for the first time today? :)

Actually, this kinda sounds like a promotion to get rid of you. Like, "Pay him whatever. Just put him in, you know, that department."

You did just the right thing. :up:

Metric released their new "Pagans in Vegas" album a year ago and now they're starting a tour, kicking it off here in their hometown of Toronto. So I got to do some cool shots of the band performing in front of a wild crowd of about 900 people at the Danforth Music Hall on Thursday night. Not gonna lie, Emily Haines is hot as fuck!

Nice pictures obsidian :up:

What did you take them with, an expensive SLR or a smart phone?
I ask 'cause I am considering updating my 'dumb phone' to a smart one and looking/researching.

I love the 80s vibe to the second to last pic with the red/blue background. It's like Club Noir from Terminator2 :up:

I used a Sony RX100. It's a mirrorless camera. Provides near SLR quality photos in a small package.
