What Are You Doing Right Now
-
Off to bed after watching an extra episode of "The Blacklist". Gotta get up tomorrow for my last day of work until next Friday.
-
Sleepy feels like I'm drunk
-
Wondering if I'll actually get to leave work on time today.
-
Preparing for the epic drive and already very happy to be on vacation!! It's been a year since I had more than a day off. This is great.
-
On the phone with Bradbury Co. with a problem on our roll forming line...just saying...this line's main system runs on DOS with an interface with an XP machine and they have no plans to get off of XP...fun times...
-
Just got to work. Settling in for the day.

Haha I was thinking about it, but I only do IT on the side (home/test stuff) so everyone would be like "Whyyyy is Matt (purchasing) following us to the IT conference"?

So come as an IT Pro and not as a GG. You'll make your money back (not now but six months ago) on the ticket price in swag, easily!
-
What kind of swag are you getting that's worth $3-400?

Haha I cannot unfortunately, what happens when someone needs a bunch of equipment we don't have in stock?! Or a customer replacement of a 10-year old IBM harddrive with specific firmware that hasen't been seen since the Apple II era?
These are the reasons I have to be on post here at the Monkey.

It's not any one item. I walked away from SW last year with:
13 t-shirts ($15 each if you bought them)
Logitech K350 ($60 retail)
Logitech M705 ($40 retail)
Tons of miscellaneous little stuff (~$50-75 in stuff)
Plantronics Backbeat GO 2 ($130 retail)
Plantronics RIG ($100 retail)Even not counting the miscellaneous items, as that's subjective, the rest is over $500 in stuff. I paid $199 for my ticket as I got it right after SW Austin 2012. So, even though I had to pay to fly down and room down there, I still made out pretty good.
-
the shirts aren't really worth anything (at least not to most as they would never buy them in the first place)
The rest - wow.. how did you walk out with two things from Logitech?
I'm guessing you were outside the norm on the stuff you acquired.
